ASHRAE 62.1 2007 locker room vs locker/dressing room

Hello. I'm confused with two items on table 6-4: "Locker/dressing rooms" and "Locker rooms". The later requires twice the exhaust rate of the first item. Would it be accurate to say that locker rooms at sport facilities would require more exhaust while locker rooms at offices would require less exhaust? Thanks in advance.

Hi- It isn't exactly clear in the minimum exhaust rate table what the difference between a locker room and a locker/dressing room is, is it? I would interpret it as a Locker Room (with the greater exhaust rate required) as being a locker room with showers. Whereas a locker/dressing room would be a place for changing clothes but not for showering. This would explain the difference in the two exhaust rates, and I notice there is no separate line in the table for shower rooms.

Do we need to ventilate the locker room or by introducing sufficient exhaust flow rate will be ok?
