The Project Designer shall verify correctness.

Within seven (7) days <br />after receipt of the change order executed by the CMAR, the Project Designer shall certify the <br />change order by its signature, and forward the change order and all supporting data to the Owner <br />for the Owner's signature. The Owner shall endeavor to execute the change order within seven (7) <br />days of receipt, or in accordance with the Owner's standard procedures when Board approval is <br />required. Upon approval by the Owner, copies of the change order will be sent to the Project <br />Designer and the CMAR and its surety. In case of emergency or extenuating circumstances, <br />approval of changes may be obtained verbally by telephone or field orders approved by all parties, <br />then shall be substantiated in writing as outlined under normal procedure. <br />32.13.
