During construction, a value engineering exercise was conducted. This exercise has resulted in cost savings for the project. However, it is expected that the changes will affect some of the energy efficiency measures.
The team has already submitted Energy and Atmosphere Credit, Optimize Energy Performance for review, and Green Business Certification Inc. (GBCI) returned an anticipated reply. What should the project team do in this situation?

• A.The project team should submit a clarification in the form of a narrative stating the changes in the design without updating the energy model
• B.At construction review submission, the energy model information must be updated to reflect all changes in the design, and the credit is guaranteed to be awarded
• C.The project team must incorporate the changes in their energy model and confirm the effect on the energy performance credit
• D.The project team need not do anything as GBCI already marked it as an "anticipated" credit
