If the rebar is plated you may want to check with a true authority.
Before retiring I installed light poles and sign structures on highways. DOT Will not allow coating on any rebar or anchor bolts that go in concrete. The 3" x 16' anchor bolts for very tall poles was only galvanized from top of concrete line upward including the threads for the nuts. We were told something like the galvanized would cause corrosion of the anchors in the concrete and render it dangerous.
