Environmental impact of noise from mobile outdoor equipment. Abstract Text:

As part of an evaluation study of European Directive 200014EC relating to the noise emission by equipment for use outdoors, an environmental impact assessment was required to investigate the need for new or tighter noise limits. In contrast to other environmental noise sources, the operating location of outdoor machines is not fixed. As conventional environmental noise mapping could not be used for this purpose, an environmental indicator was developed. This indicator takes the following factors into account: numbers of equipment in use in the EU, typical average sound power level, tonalimpulsiveintermittent sound content, annual duration of operation, daynight operation and typical areas of use. The numbers of people affected were assessed by means of a series of noise maps, resulting in distribution curves characteristic for different types of environment (urban, suburban, rural, and others). The newly developed environmental indicator is a relatively simple quantity taking all relevant factors into account including annoyance.
