Summary

Licence number:

Title:

Noise validation monitoring and assesment

Start date:

13 Aug 2020

Licence Condition
By 1 November 2020, the Licensee must engage a suitably qualified and experienced acoustical practitioner/s to undertake a noise validation assessment of noise generating activities occurring at the licensed Premises (the Noise Validation Assessment).
By 30 December 2020, the suitably qualified and experienced acoustical practitioner/s engaged by the Licensee in accordance with U1.1 must undertake the Noise Validation Assessment referred to in condition U1.1.
The Noise Validation Assessment must: 1. be undertaken in accordance with the NSW Industrial Noise Policy; 2. include, but not be limited to: a. the identification and assessment of each noise generating source located at the licensed premises during day, evening and night time periods defined in condition L4.2 b. the assessment of the contribution of individual and combined noise sources to noise generation at nominated sensitive receivers; c. a comparison of the results of the Noise Validation Assessment with the noise assessment undertaken in 2018 (Dongwha Australia Operation Noise Monitoring – Blackett Acoustic, August 2018) to determine how the mitigation measures have affected noise emissions from the premises; and d. a comparison of the results of the Noise Validation Assessment with the limit conditions referred to in condition L4.1. 3. where noise levels are found to exceed the limit condition under condition L4.1 of the licence, detail proposed noise mitigation measures (including the associated predicted noise attenuation from these measures) to achieve compliance with consented noise limits at sensitive receivers. This should include the provision of reasonable and feasible timeframes for the implementation of recommended controls.
By 29 January 2021, the Licensee must submit a report outlining the findings and recommendations of the noise assessment to NSW EPA’s Manager Regulatory Operations - Regional South.
