I don't think there is any such process today. I would like to see such a process exist.
While you're addressing non-legacy blocks, though, I have the same issue/question with *legacy* blocks. I've recently identified almost a dozen Class C blocks (yes, they're that old :-D) where I'm 100% certain they are not in use, and 99.9% certain I'm the only person left on the planet who's aware of their existence... but I do not, or no longer, have any legal connection to the assignees, so I can't relinquish the addresses to ARIN. Some of those assignees never had a legal existence in the first place (e.g. individual high schools), others no longer exist, others have moved or changed identity so establishing the succession to ARIN's satisfaction would be a nightmare. What kind of a process does/would/could exist for reclaiming unused legacy blocks like these? Or are they just frozen in time and (address) space forever and we're all OK with that? -Adam Adam Thompson Consultant, Infrastructure Services MERLIN 100 - 135 Innovation Drive Winnipeg, MB R3T 6A8 (204) 977-6824 or 1-800-430-6404 (MB only) https://www.merlin.mb.ca Chat with me on Teams: [email protected] > -----Original Message----- > From: ARIN-PPML <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Ronald F. > Guilmette > Sent: July 25, 2022 8:10 AM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [arin-ppml] Deceased Companies? > > Can some helpful soul please point me to the section of the NPRM that lays > out the ARIN policy/policies that relate to ARIN members / resources holders > that were, once upon a time, legally constituted corporate entities, but > that > have ceased being validly registered corporate entities? > > I am most particularly interested to know whether ARIN is either permitted > or obligated to reclaim any number resources that may have been assigned to > such entities. > > NOTE: I am asking now *only* about NON-LEGACY memberships & resources. > > > > Regards, > rfg > _______________________________________________ > ARIN-PPML > You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to > the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List ([email protected]). > Unsubscribe or manage your mailing list subscription at: > https://lists.arin.net/mailman/listinfo/arin-ppml > Please contact [email protected] if you experience any issues. _______________________________________________ ARIN-PPML You are receiving this message because you are subscribed to the ARIN Public Policy Mailing List ([email protected]).
