Noise exposure levels were measured in leisure environments. Elevated readings necessitated calculations of the daily noise exposure level (Lep,d) to assess risk according to D.Lgs 277/91.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Health
  • Occupational Safety
  • Acoustics

Context:

  • Leisure environments are settings for recreational activities.
  • Assessing potential health risks in public spaces is crucial.
  • Regulatory compliance for noise exposure is mandated by law.

Purpose:

  • To measure noise levels in leisure environments.
  • To calculate the daily noise exposure level (Lep,d).
  • To verify if noise levels pose a risk according to D.Lgs 277/91.

Summary:

  • Data on noise measurements in leisure activity areas were collected.
  • Elevated noise levels were observed.
  • The daily noise exposure level (Lep,d) was calculated to assess risk.

Impact:

  • Identifies environments with potentially hazardous noise exposure.
  • Informs risk management strategies for leisure venues.
  • Ensures compliance with Italian noise regulations (D.Lgs 277/91).
