Casecontext
The five-year duration of the unreported defect was time-sensitive information bearing on the urgency of structural assessment — the longer the defect had gone unaddressed, the greater the potential for cumulative deterioration and structural risk, making prompt and complete disclosure to the supervising PE a time-critical obligation.

Temporal Disclosure Urgency Constraint
Constraintstatement
Engineer Intern A was constrained by temporal urgency from deferring or omitting disclosure of the five-year non-reporting pattern — the discovery that a visibly obvious structural defect had gone unreported for five years created an immediate obligation to disclose the full historical context to Engineer B without delay, as the duration of unreported deterioration was directly relevant to assessing whether the bridge remained safe for public use.
