Decision Question
Did Firm DBA's licensed professional engineers in supervisory and ownership roles violate the NSPE Code of Ethics by approving and permitting the submission of a materially false and incomplete public engagement report, and does the routing of execution through a communications department insulate those licensed PEs from ethical accountability?
Focus
The ethical culpability of Firm DBA's licensed professional engineers for designing and approving a public engagement process that systematically excluded Community P and submitting a materially misrepresentative report, given that the NSPE Code applies universally through the PE supervisory and ownership structure regardless of whether the executing personnel were licensed engineers.
Option1
Find that Firm DBA's licensed PE supervisors and owners violated the NSPE Code by approving and permitting submission of a materially false public engagement report, and hold that the communications department structure does not insulate them from ethical accountability under the Code
Option2
Find that Firm DBA's licensed PE supervisors bear reduced or no ethical culpability because the public engagement work was executed by non-licensed communications staff and the process was directed by the City client
Role Label
Firm DBA Licensed PE Supervisors
