RUTHERFORD prefixes in area code 551

NANPA records 8 assigned NXX blocks to rate center RUTHERFORD in area code 551, 2.7% of the 300 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 5 holders hold those blocks, the largest being ONVOY, LLC - NJ (4), OMNIPOINT COMMUNICATIONS, INC. - NJ (1), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - DC (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2016-05-09 and the most recent 2023-09-21. 8 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area codes 201, 731 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
