A couple of issues that I see coming down the line as a
regional coordinator.
1. Persons receiving an allocation disappear after a period
of time, abandoning the allocation in the process, and don't
release the allocation. There is no apparent method for the
regional coordinator to attempt contact with the person and
or release the allocation if the person cannot be contacted
or found.
2. Since a person has to register on the Amprnet portal and
provide contact information, it would seem logical for the
coordinator to be able to see the contact record.
3. In lieu of providing the regional coordinator a method to
recover abandoned allocations, put an expiration date on the
allocation with notification to the person receiving the
allocation that they must log into the portal to renew the
allocation prior to expiration. The expiration date would
relative to the date of issuance or renewal. I would say a 2
to 5 year reservation on the allocation seems reasonable.
