[TowerTalk] Rusty rebar in (new) tower base - problem?

[Allen R. Brier]

[I am resubmitting this question because I did not receive any answers from
TT]

 

I received a new tower base from Hy-Gain and the rebar is somewhat rusted.
Is this a problem? How will affect Ufer grounding? I have not installed it
yet (mainly because it came in bent and I insisted on a new one).

 

Thanks,
