Decision Question
Should Engineer A apply the newly released algorithm and historic weather data to render a definitive 100-year storm surge recommendation, and how should the epistemic uncertainty inherent in evolving climate projections be handled in that recommendation?
Focus
Engineer A's obligation to apply the newly released climate algorithm and historic weather data to determine and recommend the 100-year storm surge standard, given inherent uncertainty in climate projections and the absence of a local building code
Option1
Apply the newly released algorithm and historic weather data to determine the 100-year storm surge standard, present it as the definitive professional recommendation, and explicitly qualify it as the most protective standard supportable by current best-available evidence while noting that the climate baseline may require future reassessment
Option2
Apply the newly released algorithm as one input among several, present the 100-year projection as a preliminary finding subject to further peer validation, and recommend that the client commission an independent technical review before committing to the higher design standard
Option3
Rely on previously established and peer-validated climate models to determine the applicable storm surge standard, note the existence of the newly released algorithm in the assessment report as an emerging tool warranting future consideration, and base the formal recommendation on the more conservative of the two outputs
