Areas Affected by Noise from Grid or Primary Sites
Listed in ukpowernetworks
Introduction These maps show the potential area affected by noise from Grid or Primary Substations.
Description
Acoustic mitigation strategies that have already been applied to some substations are not reflected in the maps.Please take this into account when looking at individual sites. Please note this dataset is restricted, and if you would like to be considered for access, please contact: "opendata @ukpowernetworks.co.uk" Developers and local authority planners should be aware that the responsibility to mitigate noise issues rests with the developer as the ‘agent of change’.
Methodological Approach There are three contours: Distance (m) Predicted Noise Level (dBA) Complaints Action 40 44 Likely from any new residential development Please consult environment@ukpowernetworks.co.uk 75 39 Possible from any new residential development Please consult environment@ukpowernetworks.co.uk 135 34 Not very likely Quality Control Statement Quality Control Measures include: Verification steps to match features only with confirmed functional locations.
