Community noise monitoring program

Abstract

There are numerous questions in regard to methods, instrumentation, and human and agency resources for community noise monitoring. The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency is currently in the process of seeking answers to these questions through research within the agency and by cooperation with other organizations, including the Department of Defense and the National Bureau of Standards. EPA hopes to have an acceptable protocol for community noise monitoring by July 1977, but there will still exist a long-term requirement for developing more meaningful and efficient techniques.
