A stand-alone meteorological tower must: (1) be painted in equal-width bands of solid color over its entire length, alternating between aviation orange and white so that orange is at the top of the tower and at the base of the tower; (2) have at least two spherical markers attached to each of the highest or outside guy wires that are: (i) painted solid aviation orange; and (ii) placed so that one is within 15 feet of the upper anchor point of the guy wire; (3) have a high-visibility sleeve on each guy wire, which must extend at least seven feet from the lower anchor point of each guy wire; and (4) have a flashing red light placed at the top of the tower that is compatible with a night vision imaging system, as determined by the commissioner.
