What is the first responsibility of the fiber-optic field restoration coordinator (FRC)?

The primary responsibility of the fiber-optic field restoration coordinator (FRC) is to conduct a site visit. This task is crucial as it allows the FRC to assess the current conditions of the restoration site firsthand. By visiting the site, the FRC can evaluate any damage, identify necessary repairs, and understand the logistics involved in the restoration process. This initial assessment helps in planning and organizing the subsequent steps of the restoration, ensuring that the response is appropriate to the specific circumstances encountered at the location. The firsthand knowledge gained during the site visit is vital for effective coordination and communication with team members and stakeholders throughout the project.
