Table 2 of this section lists the maximum lumen levels guidelines at various heights above ground level. The maximum lumens levels should only be exceeded if there are design constraints or other site specific factors that would jeopardize safety. A detailed explanation for lumen amounts in excess of the guidelines shall be provided by the owner/occupant or developer.
