(See CS AWO.B.CATIII.109)

It may be operationally useful for the alert height to be somewhat higher than 30 m (100 ft) since this would permit reversion to a higher DH in the event of system failure. A maximum value should be established during certification and it should not normally be above 90 m (300 ft).
