Properties
Instance of
WrittenDocumentationRequirementforSafetyNotification
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#WrittenDocumentationRequirementforSafetyNotification
Applied to
Absence of written external safety notification
Engineering notes retention
Balancing with
Client Loyalty
Confidentiality
Concrete expression
Engineer A retained the wall defect observation in his engineering notes but did not translate this into a written safety notification to VWX, the public agency, or any other authority — satisfying the documentation requirement only internally but not externally where it could trigger action.
Confidence
0.85
Importance
medium
Interpretation
Internal engineering notes satisfy documentation for personal record-keeping but do not discharge the obligation to provide written notification to responsible authorities; external written communication is required.
Invoked by
Engineer A Bridge Sub-Consultant Inspector
Tension resolution
Internal note retention is necessary but not sufficient; external written notification to responsible authorities is required to discharge the documentation obligation.
Source Evidence
Source text
Engineer A surmises that the defective condition may have been a contributing factor in the wall failure and notes this in his engineering notes.
Text references
Engineer A states that he will retain the information from his engineering notes but not include it in the final report, as requested.
