Sorry Diesel, but it hasn't been that way for a month now. They just changed the website to reflect the notam that came out 2 days ago for July 11 (mandatory). Before that it was implemented for volume/weather only.

We call before every trip in there, and this is the first time the slot has been required. And we do this trip 4-5 times a week.
