Notes:
Land Use Acceptability Interpretation / Comments
++ Clearly Acceptable + Normally Acceptable The activities associated with the specified land use can be carried out with essentially no interference from the noise
exposure.
Noise is a factor to be considered in that slight interference with outdoor activities may occur. Conventional construction
methods will eliminate most noise intrusions upon indoor activities.
