Did you know light from a coastal<br />

building may attract marine turtle<br />

hatchings away from their natural<br />

environment at sea<br />

Turtle Code<br />

Contact Viracon to determine<br />

performance data <strong>com</strong>pliance with the<br />

Florida Model Lighting ordinance for<br />

Marine Turtle Protection. The ordinance<br />

requires architectural <strong>glass</strong> to transmit<br />

no more than 45% of light from inside.<br />

The reason, light from a coastal building<br />

within 1,000 feet of the seashore attracts<br />

marine turtle hatchings away from their<br />

natural environment at sea.<br />
