Here		Makes me wonder...

What did they do wrong? Was it a quibble such as grounding to the meter pan versus grounding to the bus or better?

I'll need to read more about it.

Minneapolis, MN		 I would guess the inside coax back to the ONT might not be properly grounded in some installs.

Reading the attachment in the complaint it seems the issues they cite are with workers being killed by electricity while installing FiOS or FiOS related equipment.

I'm not sure how revisiting each job will help. It's an issue with internal safety practices and enforcement.

Absolutely. I don't know how many stories I've heard from around different industries from people who get a jolt and end realizing that they forgot to ground, power down, ad nauseum.

The only thing that re-visiting each install does is cover Verizon's ass in the event that it becomes an issue where subs are getting zapped.
