Lighting control for Barracks sleeping bays

I have a large open sleeping bay for about 30 people. I have 2 rows of lights. Is having each row switched separately good enough for the credit?

Hi Jeff, I believe it is a grey area. My feeling is that each person would be like a "workstation" and so 90% of them would need lighting controls. Do the sleeping bays have nightstands or something like that? Would people just be sleeping there or would they read before bed? Could a task light be incorporated into the bed?

The sleeping bays has 20 bunk beds and 40 cabinets for gear. There are no night stands or other furniture. The soldiers would spend some time in there awake, but most of the time will be sleeping and when its lights out, there are no light on.
