Overtime, surveyor and customs hours load from the port authority and the national calendar.
Waiting time and congestion
Ships at anchor, waiting time and berth occupancy at Houston come from a licensed AIS and schedule feed, shown to workspaces that hold that licence. Licensed values are never copied to the public page.
Connect a feedDA estimate
The DA checker opens with Houston preselected. Until the port's published tariff loads, it checks against a sample tariff, and says so on every line.

Our summary. A port notice reports longer anchorage waits for some vessel types. It asks agents to confirm berth windows earlier. It also points to the port's live berth status service.
Why it matters to you. Plan arrival speed against the berth window, not the ETA; you save fuel and protect rest hours.

Our summary. A revised tariff moves the gross-tonnage bands used for pilotage charges. The new bands apply from next month. The tariff is published in full on the port's site.
Why it matters to you. Check your next disbursement account against the new bands, not last year's.
