4. Number RFI sequentially; include date submitted.

5. Identify Project, pertinent Plan sheet, detail number, and Specification Section.

6. Specifically identify time response information as required to avoid impact on construction schedule or cost. Project Manager will endeavor to respond to proper RFI within 7-Days, if possible.

B. RFI shall include written and graphic solutions proposed by Contractor. Project Manager will determine if Contractor’s proposal is in accordance with Contract Documents and design intent of Project.

1. Contractor's failure to make a reasonable effort to propose realistic solution may result in RFI being returned with no action.
