New Jersey will investigate Verizon's copper maintenance [telecom]
Top BPU commissioner will head probe into Verizon's copper-line problems in South Jersey
by Bob Fernandez
The New Jersey Board of Public Utilities said on Monday that its top commissioner, Richard R. Mroz, will lead a probe into copper-line service complaints against Verizon Communications Inc. in parts of South Jersey.
More than a dozen towns filed a petition last year claiming that Verizon has failed to maintain its copper phone lines, leading to bad phone connections and slow internet speeds. Residents say they lose phone service in the rain and during foggy days.
