CONSIDERATIONS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES FOR THE REGULATION AND MONITORING OF NOISE POLLUTION

A NOISE STANDARD OR REGULATION SHOULD BE BASED ON ACCURATE, RELIABLE, AND RELEVANT MEASUREMENTS. AN OUTLINE IS GIVEN OF SOME OF THE BASIC CONSIDERATIONS IN DEVELOPING MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS WHICH ARE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO EFFECTIVELY REGULATE OR MONITOR NOISE POLLUTION OR TO ASSESS THE ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES FOR NOISE ABATEMENT AND CONTROL. THE IMPORTANCE OF THESE CONSIDERATIONS IS REINFORCED THROUGH A DISCUSSION OF THE QUESTIONS ADDRESSED DURING THE DESIGN OF A TEST PROCEDURE AND MEASUREMENT METHODOLOGY FOR A SPECIFIC PROGRAM IN THE AREA OF MOTOR VEHICLE NOISE. /AUTHOR/
