The FCC issued  a notice in the Federal Register on September 19, 2018, publishing the August 15, 2018  Rural Call Completion Order that adopted rules to:
  1. establish a registry for intermediate providers;
  2. require intermediate providers to register with the Commission before offering to transmit covered voice communications;
  3. require covered providers to use only registered intermediate providers to transmit covered voice communications; and
  4. require covered providers to maintain the capability to disclose the identities of any intermediate providers relied on in the call path to the Commission.
