Noise Impact Assessment
Expert Insulation Services from Hart Sound Air Testing
The process of undertaking Noise Impact Assessments (NIA) for planning application generally include:
- Consolation with Local Planning Authority (LPA) detailing our methodology to each NIA.
- Baseline noise survey, either attended or unattended, to measure the existing noise environment at and around the proposed development.
- Calculation of noise levels on Noise Sensitive Receptors (NSR).
- Compare the calculated noise level with Local and National Planning Policy assess compliance.
- Where necessary, provide Mitigation Advice to demonstrate that Local and National Planning Policy can be met.
Detailed below are various NIA the team at Hart Sound & Air Testing can provide:
