Participant Role
C58
Definition
Extracted from facts primary
A participant role of a local municipal government whose utility infrastructure is served or affected by a project and which bears the cost of utility betterments not covered by state highway projects. In this case Shadyvale owns the old water main and would pay for its upgrade.
Inherited from ParticipantRole · note
A role of an involved party or stakeholder that does not itself establish professional obligations (e.g., Client, The Public, Community Member).

Engineer Role
C58
Definition
Extracted from facts primary
A pre-licensure engineering role in which an engineer intern performs engineering design work under the direction of a senior licensed engineer, prior to taking the PE exam. The role generates obligations of competent design and avoidance of utility conflicts under applicable policy, with final sign-off resting with the supervising engineer.
Inherited from EngineerRole · note
A professional role involving engineering practice and responsibilities. Occupational archetype head for all engineer specializations and extracted engineer-role leaves.

Definition
Extracted from facts primary
A condition in which a subordinate professional is subject to a supervisor's standing instruction to revise compliant work in a way that runs against a governing policy, with the supervisor offering to take responsibility, so the subordinate's duty to follow direction is set against the duty of policy compliance. Here Engineer W indirectly directs Engineer Intern D to revise the design so the old water main is impacted, shifting cost to the DOT, and says he will sign off on it.
Inherited from ConflictOfInterestState · note
A condition in which an agent holds competing interests, loyalties, or role-derived duties that cannot all be fully served and that bias or constrain the exercise of professional judgment. As a content kind it is the standing tension among interests, covering both conflict of interest and competing duties. Its deontic relevance is that it renders the affected obligations defeasible against one another and grounds the competesWith, prevailsOver, and defeasibleUnder edge family.

A condition bearing on whether a role-bearer has the capacity, expertise, qualification, or means to carry out a duty. As a content kind it describes the standing of the agent's competence for the work at hand. Its deontic relevance is that obligation presupposes capacity, so a competence shortfall renders an attached duty defeasible or shifts it, for example to refer or disclose (Stenseke 2024).
