the Policy Development Process (PDP). Specifically, these principles are:
* Enabling Fair and Impartial Number Resource Administration

Recommended Draft Policy ARIN-2018-2: Clarification to ISP Initial Allocation
Problem Statement:
As discussed in more detail in ARIN-2017-9 and noted in the ARIN 40 Policy
Experience Report, the criteria to qualify for an initial block of address
space in 4.2.2 and 8.5.4 are seeming at odds with each other. At ARIN 41 the
community seemed to prefer the approach contained in this policy over the
approach in ARIN-2017-9, which was subsequently abandoned.
Moreover, as the NRPM (2018-1) currently sits, 4.2.2 appears to state that an
initial allocation of up to a /21 could be granted without any more
justification than needed to qualify for a /24. Therefore, 4.2.2 should be
modified, allowing an initial allocation of only a /24 without any additional
justification and allowing an initial allocation of up to a /21 when
justified by a 24-month allocation plan.
Policy Statement:
Replace the current Section 4.2.2 with:
4.2.2. Initial allocation to ISPs
All ISP organizations without direct allocations, direct assignments,
re-allocations or reassignments automatically qualify for a /24. These
organizations are exempt from requirements of showing the efficient
utilization of previously held IPv4 space. These organizations may qualify
for up to and including a /21 by documenting how the requested allocation
will be utilized within the request size specified in 4.2.4.3
ISPs holding re-allocations and/or reassignments must show the efficient
utilization of their resources consistent with the requirements in sections
4.2.3 and 4.2.4
Comments:
The timetable for Implementation: Immediate
Anything Else:
This is an attempt to clarify the changes that came about from 2016-4. It
also aligns section 4.2 with the current transfer policy. It also
re-established the understanding that ISP can renumber and return, but
putting the last section 4.2.2.1.4 into the ISP additional requests section.
The policy text has been changed and the proposed section 4.2.2.1.4 was
deleted in its entirety.
