PROJECT REVIEW STATUS: if you have a question about the status of your project awaiting review, please consult our status reports page first. Upon receipt of your project, your project manager will call you to identify missing items, if necessary. Upon architectural/mechanical review, our A/Es will do likewise. Our current review lag is approximately 10 weeks.

Please plan your submissions accordingly. As of 11/20/09 the next architectural review will be 09-0406. It was logged into the review system on 11/4/09. Project Review 09-0291 will be the next mechanical review. It was logged into the review system 10/5/09. The most recent submission has the review number 09-0458.
