At a large manufacturing company the change control board deferred some change requests. The project manager needs to communicate those deferred requests to stakeholders. Which document should be used to communicate them?

The change log is the correct document because it records all change requests, their status (approved, deferred, rejected), and their impact. It serves as a comprehensive record for communicating the disposition of changes to stakeholders. The risk log tracks potential future events and their impact, not the status of change requests. The backlog is a prioritized list of work to be done, often used in agile methodologies, but it doesn't specifically detail the disposition of formal change requests. The issue log tracks problems or obstacles encountered during the project, not the status of proposed changes.
