DILLON prefixes in area code 970

NANPA records 17 assigned NXX blocks to rate center DILLON in area code 970, 2.2% of the 786 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 QWEST CORPORATION (7), METROPCS, INC. (3), LEVEL 3 COMMUNICATIONS, LLC - CO (3). The earliest assignment on record here is 2002-05-02 and the most recent 2002-08-20. 12 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 406, 843, 854 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
