When to consider monitoring noise

Professional monitoring and risk assessment may be required during construction of buildings, roads, or any new infrastructure, or at the operational stage of a project where loud plant or machinery is used to ensure the machine isn’t causing any harm or disrupting the residents and public surrounding the site.

Environmental noise assessment may be a requirement of the EPA during operation or may be required in order to comply with a development consent application. EnviroScience Solutions are able to record and analyse the noise emitted from a construction site or operational works and advise on a control plan to minimize the impact. Residents concerned with this issue from a surrounding site are also able to be assisted with monitoring of the levels received at their home.

Occupational (workplace) level testing may be required in a workplace to protect your employees and ensure harm to hearing is kept at a minimum. EnviroScience Solutions is able to monitor exposure in in a workplace to determine if employees and contractors are being overexposed and maybe in jeopardy of developing any hearing loss. We will analyse the results and provide a report outlining controls and changes that need to be made to ensure everyone’s safety. Controls to minimise exposure in the workplace can be as simple as wearing the correct PPE.
