Why each option

A major change request has been formally approved by the CCB; the next immediate step for the project manager is to integrate this approved change into the project's technical design.

ANotify the project team about the change request's approval.

Notifying the project team is an important communication step, but it typically follows or occurs concurrently with the initiation of the technical implementation of the approved change.

BInclude the new branch of the bridge in the design.Correct

Once a change request receives formal approval from the Change Control Board (CCB), the project manager's immediate next action is to initiate the implementation of that change. For an engineering design change like adding a bridge branch, this means incorporating the new requirement directly into the design documents and work breakdown.

CCommunicate the decision to the stakeholder who requested the change.
DEvaluate the adjustments to the project management plan.
