Definition
Retained by the client to review and redesign the subdivision project using Engineer A's sealed plans as a guide. Made major changes to grading plans (deleting a sheet, raising housing pad elevations, rerouting streets) and major design changes to storm drains, pipe dimensions, sewers, and utilities — without documenting any changes, without signing or sealing any sheets, and without communicating with Engineer A. Left Engineer A's seal and signature intact on all sheets, placing only a vague title-sheet note claiming responsibility for unspecified 'revisions.'
