3. (3) Each Contractor Performance Report shall be completed as an Annual Report or Final Report. The report shall indicate its type of report. The following criteria govern each type of report and when it is completed:

   1. (A) Annual Report. Annual reports shall be submitted on all projects that were active during the rated year; and
   2. (B) This report will be completed within thirty (30) days after final project acceptance, but shall be completed no later than January 15, whichever comes first. Prior reports on the same contract shall not bind or govern the completion of a final report.
4. (4) The resident engineer shall sign and date the Contractor Performance Questionnaire when s/he completes his/her rating.
