I’ll do the best I can with this:

1- yes, summer 2003 should be fine, BUT, if you are on a waiting list for NEXT YEAR, you should not send in your permit until the eggs are close to hatching. It takes 6-8 weeks to get the permit (about the same time frame it usually takes to get babies feeding well) but…if you send in the permit application now, it will only be good for 90 days and expired by the summer of ’03
2- “Provide a complete description with photographs and / or diagrams of the area and facilities where the wildlife will be held in captivity, and description of arrangements for care during transportation and maintenance” …
they want photos and / or drawings of the enclosure(s) you plan to keep the snakes in.
3- “List mortalities resulting from your activities with these or similar species in the last two years. Provide an explanation of each mortality event and the procedures employed or modified to eliminate any future mortality events”.
They simply want to know if you have had any Drymarchon corais die in your care and why. Other snakes need not be noted.

I hope that helps
