# The Lawnmowers (Harmonization of Noise Emission Standards) Regulations 1992, Paragraph 7.3: Determination of the nature of the noise generated by the sound source


For reasons of environmental protection the nature of the noise emitted should be identified so that an assessment may be made of the annoyance caused. Consequently it is appropriate to define a method of characterising noise of an impulsive character and noise with discrete tones.
