Update:
It's now 5 working days for regular processing. So I submitted my application a bit before 5pm on a Friday and was told to pick it up next week Friday after 5pm.
Cost is now 400rmb for a single 30 day entry. Or that was what I was charged anyways. There are no posted prices and its cash only with no receipt except for your passport pickup. That's like $65 USD.
You can pay another 150rmb for 2 day or 100rmb for 3 day processing. For 400rmb, they should process it in three days like they used to before, but now you'd pay 500rmb. The office is still like deserted most of the time, so why does it take longer now and cost extra. If you opted for 2 day, thats like $90 usd. All other neighboring countries charge like $25usd.
The rest of and cope review is still good for hours and location.

Government undertaking aims to flush Dianchi clean
发布者I just rode to the intersect where the pretty clean water hits the panlongjiang. By the time the water past the 2nd ring road, it was already kind of brown and mucky, and by the 1st ring road, it was worse. I wonder if it will be any cleaner and Dianchi by the time it reaches it.
Also, you can see the nearby shell of the fake waterfall being constructed.
