Question 2

Mike is an OACETT C. Tech. He works for a municipal government in their infrastructure department. He is responsible for designing and approving the sewage and water management systems in new residential developments. Mike is currently revising the design for the sewage and water management system for a development that is six months behind schedule due to a series of worker and materials shortages. The developer is also experiencing severe financial pressures, as a result of cost over runs caused by the shortages. As he is revising the sewage and water management system designs, Mike notices a flaw in the water catchment system built around a small lake that is a key selling feature of the residential development. The design flaw means that, while the relevant standards are still met, in severe rainfall events the catchment system will be very susceptible to flooding. The flooding may in turn make the area dangerous for the residents using the park and recreational area around the lake. Mike brings this design flaw to the attention of his manager. His manager then schedules a meeting with the developer to discuss the design flaw. The developer indicates that the design cannot be changed due to budget constraints and existing commitments to the present design. Mike’s manager then communicates this to Mike. He directs Mike to stamp the designs. What should Mike do in this situation? If Mike chooses to stamp the designs, what could one possible consequence be for him professionally given the professional practice issue in the situation?

Options :

A : There would be no consequence because there is no professional practice issue

B : The developer could contact OACETT with a professional practice complaint
