NC-2009 SSc8:Light Pollution Reduction

Changes in site lighting fixtures due to Value Engineering

I'm working on a project that already submitted for Preliminary Design review. After the review the contractor and client value engineered much of the site lighting to use all LEDs, instead of HIDs, and cut the number of fixtures by 40%. Since the changes we now meet the threshold for SSc8 so we plan to apply for this credit in the Construction phase. While these changes are good for us, by lowering our LPD, how do I present this change to the reviewer of EAp2 and EAc1?
