Addenda − Resource revocation

Where the revocation of resources involves essential strategic infrastructure needed for operating the Internet in our region, the LACNIC Board of Directors may extend the resource revocation period should an extraordinary situation so require.

In those cases where the revocation of resources involves essential strategic infrastructure that is necessary for operating the Internet in our region, or in exceptional situations such as natural disasters or political instability, the LACNIC Board of Directors may extend the resource revocation period, with prior assessment by the Staff once such an extraordinary situation is detected.

This proposal seeks to provide the community with another tool that will ensure resource availability for essential, strategic infrastructure, so as to not run any risks in exceptional cases. Consequently, we propose that the power and ability to interpret which infrastructure can be considered essential and which cases are exceptional and merit invoking this possibility lie with the LACNIC Board of Directors.

The modifications to version 2 of the proposal add additional possibilities to take into account exceptional cases and introduce specifications regarding a Staff Assessment.
