3 EQUIPMENT

Unattended automatic noise logging was undertaken at one location using a Larson Davis 824 Noise Logger (SN A2597) equipped with a W free-field random incidence microphone (SN 7438) and an approved windshield due for calibration on 20th September 2014 The logger was programmed to automatically record LAeq LA10 and LAgo noise levels in successive 15-minute sample periods

The attended noise measurements were conducted using a Bruel amp Kjaer Type 1 Hand-held Analyser model 2250 Sound Level Meter (Serial No 3002841 last calibrated on 41h February 2014 ) fitted with an approved windshield The calibration of the sound level meter was checked before and after the measurements and was found to be consistent

4 ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 (EPA) specifies the maximum allowable noise levels based on the time of day and land use applicable at the most noise sensitive premises These assessment criteria are determined based on the scheduled maximum noise levels for time of day and land use

41 Excerpt from the current EPA policy 2007 (ref [2])

Part 1 - Section 5 - Indicative noise levels

(1) the indicative noise level for a noise source is to be determined as follows

(a) where-

i the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source fall within a land use category specified in Table 1 in subclause (9) and

ii the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noiseshyaffected premises fall within the same category as those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source

by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 1

(b) in any other case - by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 2 in subclause (9)

(2) When measurements to determine the source noise level (continuous) are taken shy

(a) between 700am and 1OOOpm on the same day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading day or

(b) between 1 OOOpm on one day and 700am on the following day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading Night

(5) if the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source and those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise-affected premises do not all fall within a single land use category the indicative noise level is the average of the indicative noise factors for the land use categories within which those land uses fall

42 Indicative noise factors

From the Port Adelaide Enfield Development Plan [16] the residential receivers are located within the zone designated as Residential whereas the Adelaide Brighton Cement Birkenhead Plant is located in the zone designated Industry

From the above excerpts from the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 the indicative noise levels for the residential locations are as follows (Average between General Industry and Residential land use category indicative noise levels)

Table 4-1 Indicative Noise Level

Day Night

Indicative noise level - dB(A) ~ J fCl43 Adjustment for characteristics

Note that for a noise containing a characteristic (tonal impulsive low frequency or modulating) the following adjustments are to be made to the source noise level

bull Noise containing 1 characteristic a 5dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

bull Noise containing 2 characteristics and 8dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

6 NOISE SURVEY

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

3 EQUIPMENT

Unattended automatic noise logging was undertaken at one location using a Larson Davis 824 Noise Logger (SN A2597) equipped with a W free-field random incidence microphone (SN 7438) and an approved windshield due for calibration on 20th September 2014 The logger was programmed to automatically record LAeq LA10 and LAgo noise levels in successive 15-minute sample periods

The attended noise measurements were conducted using a Bruel amp Kjaer Type 1 Hand-held Analyser model 2250 Sound Level Meter (Serial No 3002841 last calibrated on 41h February 2014 ) fitted with an approved windshield The calibration of the sound level meter was checked before and after the measurements and was found to be consistent

4 ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 (EPA) specifies the maximum allowable noise levels based on the time of day and land use applicable at the most noise sensitive premises These assessment criteria are determined based on the scheduled maximum noise levels for time of day and land use

41 Excerpt from the current EPA policy 2007 (ref [2])

Part 1 - Section 5 - Indicative noise levels

(1) the indicative noise level for a noise source is to be determined as follows

(a) where-

i the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source fall within a land use category specified in Table 1 in subclause (9) and

ii the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noiseshyaffected premises fall within the same category as those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source

by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 1

(b) in any other case - by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 2 in subclause (9)

(2) When measurements to determine the source noise level (continuous) are taken shy

(a) between 700am and 1OOOpm on the same day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading day or

(b) between 1 OOOpm on one day and 700am on the following day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading Night

(5) if the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source and those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise-affected premises do not all fall within a single land use category the indicative noise level is the average of the indicative noise factors for the land use categories within which those land uses fall

42 Indicative noise factors

From the Port Adelaide Enfield Development Plan [16] the residential receivers are located within the zone designated as Residential whereas the Adelaide Brighton Cement Birkenhead Plant is located in the zone designated Industry

From the above excerpts from the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 the indicative noise levels for the residential locations are as follows (Average between General Industry and Residential land use category indicative noise levels)

Table 4-1 Indicative Noise Level

Day Night

Indicative noise level - dB(A) ~ J fCl43 Adjustment for characteristics

Note that for a noise containing a characteristic (tonal impulsive low frequency or modulating) the following adjustments are to be made to the source noise level

bull Noise containing 1 characteristic a 5dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

bull Noise containing 2 characteristics and 8dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

6 NOISE SURVEY

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

Nighttime measurements reveal exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion at locations 25 12 and 15 with the criterion being achieved at the remaining receivers We note that all measurements seem congruent with previous surveys for all locations with the exception of location 12 which was noted to have a 3 dB increase in noise level The wind direction was predominately North Westerly for the nighttime

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

3 EQUIPMENT

Unattended automatic noise logging was undertaken at one location using a Larson Davis 824 Noise Logger (SN A2597) equipped with a W free-field random incidence microphone (SN 7438) and an approved windshield due for calibration on 20th September 2014 The logger was programmed to automatically record LAeq LA10 and LAgo noise levels in successive 15-minute sample periods

The attended noise measurements were conducted using a Bruel amp Kjaer Type 1 Hand-held Analyser model 2250 Sound Level Meter (Serial No 3002841 last calibrated on 41h February 2014 ) fitted with an approved windshield The calibration of the sound level meter was checked before and after the measurements and was found to be consistent

4 ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 (EPA) specifies the maximum allowable noise levels based on the time of day and land use applicable at the most noise sensitive premises These assessment criteria are determined based on the scheduled maximum noise levels for time of day and land use

41 Excerpt from the current EPA policy 2007 (ref [2])

Part 1 - Section 5 - Indicative noise levels

(1) the indicative noise level for a noise source is to be determined as follows

(a) where-

i the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source fall within a land use category specified in Table 1 in subclause (9) and

ii the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noiseshyaffected premises fall within the same category as those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source

by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 1

(b) in any other case - by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 2 in subclause (9)

(2) When measurements to determine the source noise level (continuous) are taken shy

(a) between 700am and 1OOOpm on the same day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading day or

(b) between 1 OOOpm on one day and 700am on the following day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading Night

(5) if the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source and those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise-affected premises do not all fall within a single land use category the indicative noise level is the average of the indicative noise factors for the land use categories within which those land uses fall

42 Indicative noise factors

From the Port Adelaide Enfield Development Plan [16] the residential receivers are located within the zone designated as Residential whereas the Adelaide Brighton Cement Birkenhead Plant is located in the zone designated Industry

From the above excerpts from the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 the indicative noise levels for the residential locations are as follows (Average between General Industry and Residential land use category indicative noise levels)

Table 4-1 Indicative Noise Level

Day Night

Indicative noise level - dB(A) ~ J fCl43 Adjustment for characteristics

Note that for a noise containing a characteristic (tonal impulsive low frequency or modulating) the following adjustments are to be made to the source noise level

bull Noise containing 1 characteristic a 5dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

bull Noise containing 2 characteristics and 8dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

6 NOISE SURVEY

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

3 EQUIPMENT

Unattended automatic noise logging was undertaken at one location using a Larson Davis 824 Noise Logger (SN A2597) equipped with a W free-field random incidence microphone (SN 7438) and an approved windshield due for calibration on 20th September 2014 The logger was programmed to automatically record LAeq LA10 and LAgo noise levels in successive 15-minute sample periods

The attended noise measurements were conducted using a Bruel amp Kjaer Type 1 Hand-held Analyser model 2250 Sound Level Meter (Serial No 3002841 last calibrated on 41h February 2014 ) fitted with an approved windshield The calibration of the sound level meter was checked before and after the measurements and was found to be consistent

4 ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 (EPA) specifies the maximum allowable noise levels based on the time of day and land use applicable at the most noise sensitive premises These assessment criteria are determined based on the scheduled maximum noise levels for time of day and land use

41 Excerpt from the current EPA policy 2007 (ref [2])

Part 1 - Section 5 - Indicative noise levels

(1) the indicative noise level for a noise source is to be determined as follows

(a) where-

i the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source fall within a land use category specified in Table 1 in subclause (9) and

ii the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noiseshyaffected premises fall within the same category as those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source

by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 1

(b) in any other case - by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 2 in subclause (9)

(2) When measurements to determine the source noise level (continuous) are taken shy

(a) between 700am and 1OOOpm on the same day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading day or

(b) between 1 OOOpm on one day and 700am on the following day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading Night

(5) if the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source and those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise-affected premises do not all fall within a single land use category the indicative noise level is the average of the indicative noise factors for the land use categories within which those land uses fall

42 Indicative noise factors

From the Port Adelaide Enfield Development Plan [16] the residential receivers are located within the zone designated as Residential whereas the Adelaide Brighton Cement Birkenhead Plant is located in the zone designated Industry

From the above excerpts from the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 the indicative noise levels for the residential locations are as follows (Average between General Industry and Residential land use category indicative noise levels)

Table 4-1 Indicative Noise Level

Day Night

Indicative noise level - dB(A) ~ J fCl43 Adjustment for characteristics

Note that for a noise containing a characteristic (tonal impulsive low frequency or modulating) the following adjustments are to be made to the source noise level

bull Noise containing 1 characteristic a 5dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

bull Noise containing 2 characteristics and 8dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

Nighttime measurements reveal exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion at locations 25 12 and 15 with the criterion being achieved at the remaining receivers We note that all measurements seem congruent with previous surveys for all locations with the exception of location 12 which was noted to have a 3 dB increase in noise level The wind direction was predominately North Westerly for the nighttime

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

4 ASSESSMENT CRITERIA

The Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 (EPA) specifies the maximum allowable noise levels based on the time of day and land use applicable at the most noise sensitive premises These assessment criteria are determined based on the scheduled maximum noise levels for time of day and land use

41 Excerpt from the current EPA policy 2007 (ref [2])

Part 1 - Section 5 - Indicative noise levels

(1) the indicative noise level for a noise source is to be determined as follows

(a) where-

i the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source fall within a land use category specified in Table 1 in subclause (9) and

ii the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noiseshyaffected premises fall within the same category as those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source

by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 1

(b) in any other case - by reference to indicative noise factors set out in Table 2 in subclause (9)

(2) When measurements to determine the source noise level (continuous) are taken shy

(a) between 700am and 1OOOpm on the same day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading day or

(b) between 1 OOOpm on one day and 700am on the following day - an indicative noise factor used to determine the indicative noise level for the noise source is found in Table 1 or 2 in the column under the heading Night

(5) if the land uses principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise source and those principally promoted by the relevant Development Plan provisions for the noise-affected premises do not all fall within a single land use category the indicative noise level is the average of the indicative noise factors for the land use categories within which those land uses fall

42 Indicative noise factors

From the Port Adelaide Enfield Development Plan [16] the residential receivers are located within the zone designated as Residential whereas the Adelaide Brighton Cement Birkenhead Plant is located in the zone designated Industry

From the above excerpts from the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 the indicative noise levels for the residential locations are as follows (Average between General Industry and Residential land use category indicative noise levels)

Table 4-1 Indicative Noise Level

Day Night

Indicative noise level - dB(A) ~ J fCl43 Adjustment for characteristics

Note that for a noise containing a characteristic (tonal impulsive low frequency or modulating) the following adjustments are to be made to the source noise level

bull Noise containing 1 characteristic a 5dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

bull Noise containing 2 characteristics and 8dB(A) penalty must be added to the noise level (continuous)

6 NOISE SURVEY

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

6 NOISE SURVEY

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

Nighttime measurements reveal exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion at locations 25 12 and 15 with the criterion being achieved at the remaining receivers We note that all measurements seem congruent with previous surveys for all locations with the exception of location 12 which was noted to have a 3 dB increase in noise level The wind direction was predominately North Westerly for the nighttime

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

6 NOISE SURVEY

61 Automatic Noise Logging

As described with previous reports the noise levels at the receiver locations are greatly influenced by

extraneous noise caused by intermittent events in particular traffic noise As a result the LAeq level is seen to

over-estimate the noise contribution from the ABC plant To capture the noise from the plant only and reduce

the effect of intermittent noise sources on the results the LA9o levels have been used in the assessment We

consider that the LA9o level is representative of the overall noise level which is the noise level exceedance for

90 of the measurement period As noise from the ABC Birkenhead plant is observed to be relatively

constant and the noise from traffic etc intermittent and varying overtime the LA9o is an appropriate

representation of noise levels for comparison with the environmental noise criteria

Additionally statistical noise data was logged for LA1o as well as LAmax which relate to the noise level

exceeded for 10 of the measurement period and the maximum noise level during the measurement period

respectively

Graphs representing results of the automatic noise monitoring for the shut-down period are included in

Appendix A The background noise levels measured at R2 exceeded the 50 dB(A) criterion applicable during

most of the night time periods It was noted that this noise level was exceeded regardless of wind direction

however generally when there was an easterly wind this exceedance is greater The daytime noise levels are

generally greater than night time noise levels however this is likely to be due to the influence of traffic noise

and the noise emissions from the plant exclusively are likely to be similar in both the day time and night time

62 Attended Measurement Survey

A noise survey was undertaken at 7 residential receiver locations in order to capture the existing noise levels

(and identify the dominant noise sources) in the vicinity as well as to coincide with the continuous noise

logging at receiver 2 Table 6-2 and Table 6-3 provide a summary of the daytime and nighttime attended

measurements respectively

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

Nighttime measurements reveal exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion at locations 25 12 and 15 with the criterion being achieved at the remaining receivers We note that all measurements seem congruent with previous surveys for all locations with the exception of location 12 which was noted to have a 3 dB increase in noise level The wind direction was predominately North Westerly for the nighttime

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

It is noted that noise from the ABC plant was audible at all receivers except locations 3 and 13 The daytime measurements show that the relevant environmental noise criterion for the daytime period has been achieved We note that the measurement at receiver 2 experienced elevated noise levels due to site work being conducted at the adjacent park as well as all other measurements affected by high density traffic and light rain Locations 35 12 were affected by elevated wind levels Additionally the wind direction during the measurement at location 8 shifted to a westerly direction essentially blowing away from the residential zoning we note that generally the wind direction was a north-westerly for the duration of the measurement period Taking into account the effects of extraneous noise on the recent attended measurement survey we note that the levels measured are generally congruent with the levels observed during the March 2014 and April 2014 surveys

Nighttime measurements reveal exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion at locations 25 12 and 15 with the criterion being achieved at the remaining receivers We note that all measurements seem congruent with previous surveys for all locations with the exception of location 12 which was noted to have a 3 dB increase in noise level The wind direction was predominately North Westerly for the nighttime

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B

Annual Noise Survey

July 2014

measurement period blowing approximately parallelaway from the residential zone We note the plant was audible at all measurement locations

623 Additional Comments Regarding the Attended Measurement Survey

Inspection of the measurement spectra was also conducted Analysis of the third octave noise data showed that there was a 63Hz tone present at location 15 during both the daytime and night-time measure1111ents where 1he measured sound level in one third octave band was 5d8 higher than the sound level in the adjacent third octave bands This third octave peak was not detected at any other location during both the daytime and nighttime surveys and we consider that this is most likely emanating from a localised noise source to location 15 and not from the BC plant We note that this tone was a)so detected during a previous nighttime survey of April 2014 at the same location

Further the tone detected from the 4A stack at 165Hz auring previous surveys was not detected within the measurement spectra and also narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

7 SUMMARY AND DISCUSSION

An attended measurement survey was conducted at 7 residential locations as weH as continuous noise loggiog at one of these locations as described within Section 51 It is shown that exceedance of the relevant environmental noise criterion for nighttime occurs at locations 2 5 12 and 15 with the relevant noise criterion being achieved at all locations during the daytime Generally noise levels during the night time attended noise survey were congruent with what has been observed during previous noise surveys The daytime survey was noted to be affected by a number of extraneous noise sources however taking these into account the noise levels in general have not increased and follow the levels that have been observed during previous surveys

We note the tonal characteristic at 165Hz was not detected from the 4A stack during both the daytime and nighttime attended measurements upon inspectiora of the 13 octave spectra as well as the narrow band spectra for all measurement locations

It is understood that the first item to be targeted for noise reduction is to be the gantry dust collector we understand that this is currently being attended to under recommendations provided by Vipac [12] and when sufficiently treated any changes in plant contribution to environmental noise will be identified more readily

Wind direction is an important influencing factor in the noise impact of the ABC Birkenhead plant to its neighbouring receivers For the Birkenhead site predominant wind directions (from BOM weather station data from Outer Harbor from April 2009 to October 2013) are shown to be from the sou-sou-west (13) south (12) and North East (8) A wind rose of the wind direction data is given in Appendix B
