Definition
Engineer L simultaneously bears a public responsibility role distinct from the provider-client role: the obligation to protect the community's drinking water source, which can and does conflict with the client's financial preferences. This role is activated by the engineer's awareness of increased watershed risk and the community's dependence on that water source.
