Noise Impact assessment in London

Are you doing a planning application for a new development, a new facility or expanding your operations? Is your project a residential development, commercial project or an industrial proposal?

Planning Applications: Noise Impact assessment in London

Local Authorities often require a noise impact assessment to ensure that your noise emissions won't negatively affect the surrounding area.

Enviropass will make your proposal compliant with the noise impact assessment needs required by the local planning authority. This can involve pre commencement conditions or conditions that must be implemented prior to the occupation of the development. These things need to be sorted first before you can start building your project after getting planning.
The objective of conducting a noise survey is to establish a benchmark measurement of the noise conditions in the vicinity of a proposed development. This enables an evaluation of the potential noise impact on residential properties. Suggesting can be made on how to mitigate adverse noise impact on the local area. The assessment of noise impact is conducted in accordance with British Standards, including BS8233:2014 and BS4142:2014, as well as the guidelines set forth by the World Health Organisation. The ultimate goal is to ensure that future occupants are not negatively impacted by excessive noise levels.

Once all the required information is collected we will produce a report to support your planning application.

From residential developments, industrial projects to traffic and leisure activities, we assess all noise sources to confirm that they meet the Local Authority's requirements allowing you to get planning permission. Enviropass are experts in understanding and implementing the BS4142 and BS8233 methodology.

Getting your scheme Noise compliant from outset

The Professional Practice Guidance on Planning and Noise (ProPG) is a collaborative document that was launched in 2017 by the Institute of Acoustics (IOA), Association of Noise Consultants (ANC), and the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH). Its primary objective is to promote better acoustic design for new residential development and safeguard individuals from the detrimental effects of noise. The ProPG aims to achieve this goal by encouraging meticulous, thoughtful, and forward-thinking design, without increasing costs or complicating planning procedures. The document is aligned with the government's policies outlined in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) and the Noise Policy Statement for England (NPSE).

Our team can work with you from the outset of your proposal to meet these requirements.

We can help ensure your proposal is not refused due to issues with adverse noise.
