Interesting question, according to the (U.S. FCC) Technical Advisory 
Council, Critical Legacy Transition Working Group:

   "the FCC should set a date after which the circuit-switched voice elements
    of the PSTN would no longer constitute the network of record in the
    United States"

 From what I read, the (target) date is based on a (U.S.) National 
Center for Health Statistics report that determined only 6% of the 
U.S. population will use the PSTN in 2018.

As a FYI, one cited article about POTS is at
