The authoritative and current ICANN DPS is published here:

  https://www.iana.org/dnssec/

My understanding is that the current copyright and the source of some of the derivative text in that document means it cannot be published as-is as an RFC, assuming that's what you meant. My understanding may be weak however, and anybody who happens to be expert in copyright as it applies to the RFC series should feel very free to drop me a private note, if they feel an urge to educate me.

For completeness, the corresponding DPS from VeriSign can be found here:

  https://www.verisign.com/repository/dnssec-practice-statement-root-zone-zsk-operator.pdf

Together the two documents describe the whole system.
