The split will begin 19 Oct 1996, but the "mandatory" date (the date at which area code 250 must be used to dial BC areas outside the lower mainland - that is Metro Vancouver and surrounding communities) is now 6 April 1997, advanced from 1 June 1997. BC Tel claims that 604 is in jeopardy of exhausting all its exchange or NXX codes earlier than the original mandatory date. Changes to ANI (automatic number identification) will be completed by 7 March 1997. NXXes (central office codes) will split as follows as transcribed from the Bellcore Letter listing. (* following an NXX means it is new since 1 Jan 1996). I haven't had time to map places to the NXXes yet.
