Lighting for divert operations is configured as which type?

Explanation:
Divert operations use Low-Intensity Runway Lighting. This setting provides enough runway visibility for a safe approach and landing at alternate or smaller fields without the higher power demand of full high-intensity lighting. High-Intensity Runway Lighting is more suited to major airports with greater electrical load, while REIL lights are only runway end identifiers and PAPI is a slope indicator on approach—both not the complete runway lighting configuration used for divert operations.
