Coverage, stated plainly

The file covers 81 applications: 78 filed from January 2016 through September 2026, plus 3 filed in 2015 and decided in 2016. Dates and costs come from the HRB's monthly activity reports; the 2015 to 2019 reports, which the state no longer posts, were read from Internet Archive copies. Review committee recommendations, Board votes, hearing participants and conditions come from 145 sets of Board, committee and hearing minutes and 178 agendas on the state's public meetings site. A few meetings have no posted minutes, and the file says which. Sixteen notices of intent that never became applications are listed separately.

  • The state's own Application Decisions table disagrees with its monthly reports on 11 projects and leaves out four 2025 approvals. The file keeps both figures and names each source.
  • Delaware prints no application numbers, so each row carries a COPN Atlas number (DE, year, sequence).
