This is a survey company (Survey Sampling, Inc) that does contract market research or opinion polls. They operate a number of call centers with different outgoing numbers. Unfortunately since they are not selling anything they do not have to check against the DNC list before calling. They are required to maintain their own DNC list and place numbers on it when requested.
Here is their information link including how to opt-out of receiving calls.

Unfortunately again, the current laws require opt-out instead of opt-in for these type of calls.
