4. USE THE CODE OF ENGINEERING CONDUCT TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTION. ALSO, QUOTE THE RELEVANT CLAUSES TO JUSTIFY YOUR ANSWERS CASE STUDY 1: SUSTAINABLE ENGINEERING PRACTICES (7 MARKS) Engineer A, an experienced civil engineer, was engaged by an environmental advocacy organization to provide a report on past road-building practice by a major forest company, in a forested area where cutting ceased in the late \( 1970 \mathrm{~s} \). He found many examples of road-building practice that, over the past 25 years, had led to serious erosion. Engineer A photographed and described these obsolete practices in his report, to illustrate what damage they can cause and why they must be avoided. The environmental advocacy organization used the report in a submission to government, urging tighter enforcement of road-building regulations. Engineer A then wrote an article for a national magazine in which he castigated the government and the forest company and called on readers to mount a "write-in" campaign. He also implied that the forest company might still be using these poor road-building practices. Engincer A later stated that he believed that this "hard-hitting" approach would help to get the article published. In the magazine article, Engineer \( \mathrm{A} \) acknowledged the assistance he received from the logging superintendent of the forest company, but did not mention that the environmental advocacy organization had financed his study. A reporter on a local weckly newspaper read the magazine article and wrote a "rehash" of the article. That is, the reporter wrote a newspaper story, based on the article, but implying that the story was the result of a personal interview-a questionable journalistic practice. In the newspaper story, the facts were simplified and made even a little more "hard-hitting." The reporter pretended to quote Fngincer \( \mathrm{A} \) as saying that the forest company's unacceptable roadbuilding practice was "still widespread throughout the province." Before publication, the reporter phoned Engineer \( \mathrm{A} \), to justify the claim that the story was an interview. The reporter explained that she had written the story from the magazine article, but it was too long to read over the telephone. She gave a rough verbal outline. Engineer \( \mathrm{A} \) said he was satisfied with the story, which then appeared in the next issue of the newspaper. The forest company, after reading the magazine article and the newspaper story, felt that they cooperated with a constructive attempt to study and improve rood-building practices, but they had, instead, been misled and defamed. They complained to the provincial Association and asked the Association to discipline Enginecr \( A \). Question: Should Engineer A be disciplined? If so, on what basis? 5.
