High piled storage includes all storage of Group A plastic in excess of what height?

I'm a little confused by the wording here. Is this asking about the maximum height or the minimum height that qualifies as "high piled"? I'll have to think it through.

Okay, I've got this. The question is asking about the height limit for Group A plastics, so I'll choose the option that matches that criteria.

Are you kidding me? 5 ft (1.5 m) is way too low. I'd be stacking my plastic to the ceiling if that was the limit!
