Source Evidence
Source text
contrary to the situation in BER Case 01-11, the performance of such services by Engineer A potentially places him in the situation of reviewing his own work
Text references
Engineer A is an officer or principal of his engineering firm, and thus according to NSPE Code of Ethics, section II.4.e, is not eligible to provide engineering services to Smithtown for the local road project
The Board does not believe that the disclosure of any further circumstances (e.g., private work in town for a developer, reviewing its own work) would be sufficient to avoid a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest
