months after the events giving rise to the disagreement have occurred.

facts, a discussion of the unresolved issues, and a specification of the 
clarification, relief, or remedy sought. A copy of this written request 
and all accompanying materials must be provided to the other party at 
the same time. The other party shall submit a written position on the 
matters in dispute within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving this 
notification that a decision has been requested. The Dispute Resolution 
Official shall conduct a review of the matters in dispute and render a 
decision in writing within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of such 
written position.
