s/resource/resources/
s/minimum allocation sizes/applicable minimum allocation size/ s/experimental 
documentation/request/

result:

If an organization requires more resources than stipulated by the applicable 
minimum allocation in force at the time of their request, their request should 
clearly describe and justify why a larger allocation is required.

I think this not only parses better, but is more accurate.

The first change resolves a grammar error.
The second change avoids ambiguity between whether all requests are subject to 
all minimums in this case vs. the intended meaning that the minimum applicable 
elsewhere in policy.
The third change is because their documentation should be documentation of an 
experiment, not experimental documentation and what we really care about is the 
information provided in their ARIN request anyway.

I think since this is a minor change which does not alter the meaning of the 
policy and does improve readability and clarity, that we should probably go 
ahead and incorporate it as you proposed prior to last call.
