For example, "Trout Lake (OM) | May | 286 | OM" would become: "Trout Lake (OM) | May | 286/372 | OM" |

RodPortage: "Adam, in the summary page, could you add the total number of permits that were initially available at each point in the "Available Permits" column? If I'm reading this correctly, you're asking that it mirror the format of the individual monthly pages, adding of a column 'Monthly Permit Quota,' which would list the sum of that month's daily quotas. Also: the links from the main summary page for any given month seem to always jump to September, no matter what EP or month is clicked... BYW, Adam: This is really cool. New this year? |

Lake One Availability We also have a summary of available entry points permits on this Permit Availability Summary You can currently find the find availability link on the entry point home pages. Permit Home Pages Permits alerts are also up and running. You will find this option at the bottom of the permit availability pages. You can sign up by permit alerts by month for any entry point or you can signup for a specific entry point. We currently don't allow this to be narrowed down to specific days or weeks. |

Total 842 Permit Alerts: Overnight Paddle: 627 Alerts Overnight Motor: 205 Alerts* Day Use Motor: 10 Alerts *overnight motor permits are skew higher by weekly quotas. Some of these cancellations could be from the Forest Service removing permits from people who booked multiple overlapping permits. It will be interesting to know that. However, these numbers are in line with last year. |

schweady: " I didn't think of it that way, but adding a "Monthly Permit Quota" column like the daily quota on the individual monthly pages would work too. That's the origin of the number 372, it's 31 days in May times 12 permits per day. Agreed that this is very cool. Thanks a lot for making it happen, Adam. |

So far this year, 1530 permit alerts were sent out. These are permits that were released for otherwise unavailable entry point/date combinations. The first 2 days after permits were released saw the heaviest activity, and it has steadied to an average of roughly 20 per day. |
