Topic: Lighting Plan Comment Number: 2 Comment Originated: 06/15/2016 06/15/2016: It is unclear which light fixtures will be used - sheets 1 and 2 of the lighting plan seem to be showing different fixtures. Please provide the manufacturer cut-sheets for the light fixtures that will be used. With regard to LED light fixtures, cooler color temperatures are harsher at night and cause more disruption to circadian rhythms for both humans and wildlife. Staff recommends a warm color temperature (warm white, 3000K or less) for the LED light fixtures. Cut Sheet of fixture is provided.
