   ARIN-2014-21: Modification to CI Pool Size per Section 4.4

These new policies are now in effect. A new version of the ARIN Number 
Resource Policy Manual (NRPM) has been published to the ARIN website. 
NRPM version 2015.3 is effective 29 July 2015 and supersedes the 
previous version.

Regarding 2014-6, which removed reverse DNS text from the NRPM, we 
placed a new section called "Reverse DNS Delegation Management" in the 
Services section on the ARIN website; it can be found here:

Regarding 2014-21, the Critical Infrastructure pool was increased from a 
/16 equivalent to a /15 equivalent by the addition of 149.112.0.0/16.
