5.2 Background Creep Criteria
Based on the measured background noise levels (L90) recorded in Table 1 of this report the criteria noise
levels from the Environmental Protection (Noise) Policy in relation to Background Creep for are:

The noise limit criteria presented in the above table relate to measured corrected limits, where corrections
must be applied to allow for tonal or impulsive characteristics as per Australian Standard AS 1055.




5.3 On-Site Activity Noise- Pool Area – Source Noise Levels

Measured source noise levels and their duration of activities typical of the car park and recreation activities
have been included in the table below. These levels have been taken from previous reports prepared by
Decibell Consulting are presented in relation to the various noise parameters.
