THE TOP NEWSMAKERS

January 4, 1999

Ed Turner put Engineering Ethics ahead of expediency when he stood up for a rarely enforce state law requiring engineers to stamp plans prepared only by staff members under their supervision.

Turner lost the first round of a costly legal struggle against the city, but won admiration from engineers around the country.

The Top Newsmaker Award was presented to Ed Turner on April 22, 1999 @ Pier Sixty, Chelesa Piers, New York, New York.
