Data Source and Calculation
Information is taken from the agency’s oyster leasing processing system on a yearly basis. Average processing time is measured as the difference in days between the date a lease application is fully received and the date the lease is assigned. The Oyster Ground Leasing Systems contains data on each lease request and the time associated with each step in the leasing process which allows the agency to calculate the time it takes to fully complete the leasing process for that the request. The system sums up all processing days, sums up the number of lease applications fully processed, and then divides total processing days by total fully assigned leases. This figure is compared to what has historically been considered an acceptable processing time, to allow for a full weighing of all public and private interests - 270 days. Calendar year values are reported as the performance measure in the following year.
