My construction company is currently working on a project in the city, and I'm worried about the noise pollution from our site. What are the local regulations regarding noise pollution from construction sites?

Construction sites in the city are required to comply with local regulations regarding noise pollution. To ensure complaints from neighbors and passing by pedestrians are minimal, all construction sites should be restricted to keeping their noise levels below 75 decibels (dB) between 7am and 9pm. Generators and other noisy equipment must be placed away from residential areas, windows, yards, or gardens whenever possible and ear protection for workers must also be provided by the site owner/management. Additionally, adequate waste management procedures must also be observed to minimize any air or sound pollution due to material collection and removal.

The local regulations regarding noise pollution from construction sites will depend on the city in which you are working. It is important to check with the local municipality to make sure you are aware of any regulations that may pertain to your project. Generally, construction sites are required to have measures in place to reduce noise pollution such as noise monitors and limiting hours of operation, and some cities require a specialized construction permit for very noisy activities. Make sure you understand all rules before beginning work on your project.
