ARIN reviews requests for IPv4 address space in accordance with
the policies that can be found at 

	http://www.arin.net/regserv/initial-isp.html

If you feel at any time that a response you receive back from
ARIN registration services staff does not properly reflect the
stated policies, please contact us and ask to speak to one of
the registration analysts or the Director of Registration Services.

ARIN's helpdesk can be reached by dialing (703) 227-0660 between
the hours of 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM EST, Monday through Friday.

Best Regards,

Richard Jimmerson
Director of Operations
American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN)
