Explanation

The project charter is a formally approved document that authorizes the project and typically includes high-level milestones. If milestones are missing, they should be added - but since the charter is a controlled baseline document, any changes to it must go through the formal change control process first. A change request must be submitted and approved before altering the charter. Directing the stakeholder to the project management plan (A) does not resolve the concern about the charter. Logging the concern (C) without acting is insufficient. Providing a status report (D) addresses current progress, not the missing charter content.
