My previous post was to put the point across to certain contributors that sometimes PV/NPWS/Commercial operators have to jump through some silly hoops in order to get fixtures installed. We had to go through the whole "Geotech" scenario when installing some hardware for NPWS. Back then it was something like $1100 just for the Geotech to come out and tap the rock with his hammer.
Just another excuse for padlocking bolts, aside from the liability case. |
