I don't think so Jim, but don't put any money on what I think.  Most of 
47CFR that deals with such standards seems to classify emitters based 
more on their usage rather than location.  I suspect that "street 
lighting," even if in a residential area would not have to meet Class B 
standards.  Not that that would matter anyway, it appears that no one is 
enforcing any of this.
