On 16 December 2021, the ARIN Advisory Council (AC) classified "ARIN-2021-5: Update ISP and End User References For 2022 Fee Schedule" as an Editorial Change to the Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM).

The process for Editorial Changes is found in Part One, Section 3.1, paragraph 3 of the Policy Development Process (PDP):

 

"Changes to policy that are purely editorial and non-substantial in nature are outside the scope of the full Policy Development Process and may only be made with 30 days public notice followed by the concurrence of both the ARIN Advisory Council and ARIN Board of Trustees that the changes are non-substantial in nature."

 

Your feedback on this Editorial Change is encouraged. The review period will close on 23 January 2022, taking into account three US federal holidays.

Editorial Change ARIN-edit-2021-5: Update ISP and End User References For 2022 Fee Schedule

 

Problem Statement:

 

Starting in Jan 1 2022, ISPs and end users will no longer have a distinction in terms of fees and both will be under RSA membership terms. There is existing policy language in the NRPM which references ISPs and end users separately.

 

Policy Statement:

 

This policy aims to synchronize the NRPM in regards to the new 2022 fee schedule by consolidating instances where ISPs and End users have clear distinctions.

Comments: The fee schedule is not in effect until Jan 1, 2022. The new Fee Schedule includes the following changes, “Transitioning End Users from annual per-resource maintenance fees to the RSP (Registration Services Plan) Fee Schedule”

 

Timetable for Implementation: Any time after Jan 1, 2022

 

Anything Else: The AC/community may want to consider the word “resource holder” rather than organization in the new text
