What crap. If additional precautions are required the regulated minimum
is
meaningless. How does a tower owner know if these additional precautions
are required if they're not part of the regulations on lighting and
marking?

By using common sense and listening to the pilots which in this case
recommended additional lighting. It's really very simple. The regulated
minimum is probably sufficient in Montana for an antenna 50 miles from an
airport. Common sense says more is needed 1 and 1/2 miles from an airport.
