The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission is reminding residents in the 814 area code that mandatory ten digit dialing will begin soon.
The PUC says the new policy starts April 3rd, so they’re encouraging families and businesses are all aware of the switch to help make it a smooth transition.
This is a part of the arrival of a new “overlay” area code –582—that will eventually be in place along with the 814 code. So 582 will be given to new numbers once all 814 numbers are done.
