The mechanism of registering domains listed on that site involved downloading an InterNIC template form that had been a dead link for at least several years. As of 2021, a search shows three active websites using a .mh domain: one for the government's Natural Disaster Management Office, one for the school system, and one for a telecommunications company. The latter has two separate .mh domains, though both serve the same website.
