DP1

When and how must Engineer A disclose to the state client both the farmhouse owner's expressed unwillingness to sell and the full human, cultural, and historical consequences of exercising eminent domain over the historic property?

Engineer A's obligation to disclose the farmhouse owner's refusal to sell and the full consequences of eminent domain to the state client — including when that disclosure obligation arises and what it must encompass

Disclose to the state client — upon first identifying the farmhouse impact during route analysis — both the owner's expressed unwillingness to sell and the full human, cultural, and historical consequences of condemnation, framing eminent domain as a legally available but consequence-laden last resort accompanied by a complete proportionality assessment

Disclose the owner's refusal to sell and the legal availability of eminent domain to the state client after confirming the owner's position through the proactive visit, treating the visit as the threshold event that activates the disclosure duty, and limiting the disclosure to factual route constraints without independent proportionality assessment on the grounds that cultural and historical valuation is a policy judgment reserved for the state

Disclose the eminent domain option and the owner's refusal to the state client as co-equal factual elements of the route analysis without sequencing or framing them relative to creative alternatives, on the grounds that the state as a sovereign authority already possesses full legal and contextual knowledge of condemnation consequences and Engineer A's role is limited to technical route specification rather than policy consequence assessment
