LATA and the Fargo-Brainerd LATA; it is the only area code in theNorth America n system to be broken into two LATAs.The code is somewhat over half full, with about 500 of the about 800 theoretically possible exchanges in use; however the two-LATA structure of the area code eliminates from 701 the use of many exchanges from northern
Minnesota 'sarea code 218 . As a result, discussions are underway for a potential split of North Dakota between area code 701 and a new area code sometime in 2010 or 2011.ee also
