I'll say in just about every situation where the other end got bonded to the egc you would be ok. If the run was exceedingly long and surpasses the value of impedence that exeeds the level that operates the overcurrent device to open it might not be ok. A run across a long bridge like the Golden Gate would probably not be ok as the op describes if bonded at the far end. It might not safely be able to carry the fault current at levels that will cause an opening of the overcurrent device. For most situations though you would be fine.
