Paragraph 25 Control of noise during operational phaseI1

The noise emanating from the operation of F1the Project A converter station (including transformers, cooling fans, switch gear and power lines) must F2... not exceed operational noise levels of 35 decibels F3(including when taken as a whole with the Project B converter station) as given in BS4142 at the nearest receptors identified on the works plans as follows (with grid references shown as easting: northing)—

The noise emanating from the operation of the Project B converter station (including transformers, cooling fans, switch gear and power lines) must not exceed operational noise levels of 35 decibels (including when taken as a whole with the Project A converter station) as given in BS4142 at the nearest receptors identified on the works plans as follows (with grid references shown as easting: northing)—

Noise measurements must be undertaken in free field conditions and expressed as 5 minute L(A)r values.

All standby generator testing in relation to the F5Project A onshore works must be undertaken between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Monday to Saturday, and not at all on Sundays or public or bank holidays, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the relevant planning authority.

 All standby generator testing in relation to the Project B onshore works must be undertaken between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Monday to Saturday, and not at all on Sundays or public or bank holidays, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the relevant planning authority.

To avoid doubt, the grid references in sub-paragraph (1) are approximate and are not intended to provide the position of any noise-monitoring locations.
