When  I had a new input circuit and service box input, no rods were used, 
as against code.  The grounding was a multipart, thos each wire large, from 
the box out of the house folowing the conduir, then to ground about 3ft 
deep to a horizontal plate.  Yes, a horizontal plate, not a vertical rod.

So the debate on grounding grinds on.
