Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report <br /> Gill Medical Center Project <br /> Non-exempt Onsite Stationary Noise <br /> The main non-exempt stationary noise associated with the Proposed Project would be parking lot activity <br /> such as internal vehicle circulation, car doors opening and closing, people taking, and stereo music. Onsite <br /> Project operations have been calculated using the SouncIPLAN 3D noise model.The results of this model <br /> can be found in Draft EIR Appendix H. Previous noise measurements taken by ECORP Consulting, Inc., <br /> using a Larson Davis SounclExpert LxT precision sound level meter, within a visitors parking lot adjacent to <br /> a 298 bed medical center, emergency care, and Level II trauma center equip with FlightCare air ambulance <br /> service recorded a noise level of 53.8 dBA when no emergency activity was occurring. This sound power <br /> level was used as a reference measurement in the Sound PLAN noise model to predict the propagation of <br /> onsite noise produced by the Project.The solid seven-foot-tall CMU wall proposed to be constructed <br /> along the southern site boundary adjacent the existing residential property lines is accounted for in the <br /> noise prediction modeling. <br /> Table 4.15-12 shows the predicted Project noise levels at nearby sensitive receptors in the Project area <br /> and Figure 4.15-2. Project Onsite Non-Exempt Source Noise Generation depicts the predicted noise levels <br /> from Project operations at the site locations listed in Table 4.15-12. <br /> Table 4.15-12.Modeled Operational Noise Levels-Non-Exempt Noise <br /> Existing Modeled County Exceed <br /> Operational Exterior <br /> Op <br /> Site Baseline Noise Standard? <br /> Location Location Measurements Noise Standards (Day <br /> (Leq dBA) Attributable to (dBA) /Night) <br /> Project(Uq dBA) (Day/Night) <br /> 1 Northeast of Project site on Ham Lane N/A 31.4 50/45 No/No <br /> 2 Residential property northeast of Project site N/A 34.1 50/45 No I No <br /> 3 Residential property northeast of Project site N/A 35.5 50/45 No/No <br /> 4 Residential property east of Project site N/A 40.0 50/45 No/No <br /> 5 In front of residence on Ham Lane north of N/A 34.3 50/45 No/No <br /> Project site <br /> 6 Residential property south of Project site N/A 36.9 50/45 No/No <br /> 7 Residential property south of Project site N/A 40.9 50/45 No/No <br /> 8 Residential property south of Project site N/A 42.0 50/45 No/No <br /> 9 Adjacent to Eight Mile Road and proposed 75.2 36.3 50/45 No/No <br /> driveway <br /> 10 Residential property south of Project site N/A 40.8 50/45 No/No <br /> 11 Residential property south of Project site N/A 41.4 50/45 No I No <br /> Noise 4.15-26 October 2021 <br />
