- Open the Jobs tab and replace the sample rows with your own — one row per entry. Formulas fill in automatically for new rows.
- Waterfront permits (local, state, sometimes Army Corps) take longest: track the submission date closely.
- Promised turns red when a phase runs late; water levels and seasonal restrictions can move dates.
