(1) The Technical Staff will review the submitted plans and specifications for compliance with the State Building Code. The results of the review will be provided as written review comments to the submitting design professional and project owner.

Written response by the Technical Staff to these submittals will be made only in cases of violations of building codes or obvious non-compliance with laws and regulations.

(3) The Technical Staff's approval of plans, specifications, change orders, or related materials submitted for public projects does not constitute certification that the documents or project comply with the state's competitive bid laws; the responsibility for this certification rests with the awarding authority and its legal advisor.
