Report addendum

A supplemental document that clarifies or updates a defined portion of an existing report.

Why it matters

It should identify the original report and exactly what changes. An addendum addressing one item is not necessarily a full update of observations, records, or conclusions.

In practice

A project example

An addendum records receipt of a missing document without suggesting that a new site visit occurred.
