Properties
Instance of
ProportionalEscalationObligationCalibratedtoImminenceandBreadthofRisk
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#ProportionalEscalationObligationCalibratedtoImminenceandBreadthofRisk
Applied to
Local government building code advocacy
Region-wide coastal storm surge risk
Balancing with
Employer Concurrence Requirement for Post-Obligation Advocacy
Concrete expression
The breadth of the coastal storm surge risk — affecting not just the immediate development but all jurisdictions in the broader geographical area — justified an escalation response that extended beyond withdrawal from the project to advocacy with local government officials for region-wide building code updates
Confidence
0.89
Importance
high
Interpretation
When the identified risk is not limited to a single project but extends to a broader geographic area and affects the general public, the proportional escalation response includes advocacy for systemic regulatory remedies such as updated building codes
Invoked by
Engineer A Present Case Coastal Risk Assessment
Tension resolution
The breadth and significance of the coastal storm surge risk supports region-wide advocacy as a proportional escalation response beyond mere project withdrawal
Source Evidence
Source text
