Obligation statement
Engineer A is obligated to refrain from accepting private airport consulting work solicited through the former firm for municipalities that receive State DOT airport improvement grant funding, because Engineer A's governmental employer administers those grant agreements and the dual relationship would exploit — or appear to exploit — the State DOT's grant authority over those municipalities to obtain private consulting business.
