I was thinking 'delimitation of powers' but am unsure... It is for the organizing of a building site.

Discussion

Charles Davis Dec 12, 2010:
competencias / competences I agreed with Jenni's answer only in the light of her subsequent note, suggesting "areas of responsibility", which I think is the best translation of "competencias". I want to make it clear that I disagree with "competences". I think "competencia" here means "Obligación y cargo de hacer algo" (synonym of "incumbencia"), as the DRAE defines it. But "competence" (or "competency"), does not have this meaning. It can mean "the legal authority of a court or other body to deal with a particular matter" (Oxford), but that's not the same thing. Not getting at you, Jenni; just wanted to clarify my position!

Note from asker:
Thanks Jenni, it fits perfectly!
Peer comment(s):

agree Charles Davis : I had just suggested "defining areas of responsibility" and then I saw your note, so I've deleted my answer. I think "areas of responsibility" is much better than "competences". // See discussion entry.

Thanks Charles. I prefer the more straightforward translation myself.
agree Evans (X) : I agree with Charles, 'defining' or 'establishing' and 'areas of responsibility' are the best options here.
