7. Monitoring Results

7.1 Noise Monitoring

Monitoring methodology

7.1.1 Monitoring Procedure

(a) The impact noise monitoring should be carried out at all the designated monitoring stations when there are project-related construction activities undertaken within a radius of 300m from the monitoring stations.

(b) The monitoring station shall normally be at a point 1m from the exterior of the sensitive receiver’s building façade and be at a position 1.2m above the ground.

(c) Façade measurements were made at the monitoring locations. For free-field measurement, a correction factor of +3 dB (A) would be applied.

(d) The battery condition was checked to ensure the correct functioning of the meter.

(e) Parameters such as frequency weighting, the time weighting and the measurement time were set as follows:

(f) Frequency weighting: A, Time weighting: Fast, Measurement time set: continuous 5 mins

(g) Prior and after to the noise measurement, the meter was checked using the acoustic calibrator for 94dB (A) at 1000 Hz. If the difference in the calibration level before and after measurement was more than ±1 dB (A), the measurement would be considered invalid and repeat of noise measurement would be required after re-calibration or repair of the equipment.
