Who determines the exterior lighting zone LZ0-LZ4 for a LEED project? I am working on a project in a state that isn't mine and I don't know much about the city. My only info is what I see on Google Earth and knowing it is across a highway from an airport. Does a LEED team member assign this zone? Thanks.

Hi Linda,
The lighting zone LZ0-LZ4 is adapted from Model Lighting Ordinance User Guide (LEED BD+C v4 guide page 214). The guide is used to classify a project based on its characteristics as well as provide justification for the lighting zones that have been selected.
The lighting designer or someone with knowledge of the project site and lighting zone classifications is responsible for classifying the lighting zone. He/she must be a team member, as stated in the Step 1 and 2 LEED BD+C v4 guide page 211.
