    Answer is given below

    Explanation:

    The public works officer is part of the state machinery and governed by the state constitution. Based on the limited facts presented, it is unethical for Engineer A to act as a consultant on federal and state projects. Working with Engineer B as a consultant on Engineer A, federal and state-funded projects can lead to a conflict of interest. The Engineer shall obtain and secure the approval of the appropriate authorities in some City before acting as an independent consultant; Engineer A must also ensure that its work complies with local, state and federal procurement laws and conflict-of-interest rules and rules applicable to the Local Engineering License Act, as the questionable work has local, state, and federal resources.
