Kern COG Noise Study
Client: Kern Council of Governments
Location: Kern County, California
The Kern COG is the responsible agency for sponsoring retrofit noise abatement projects in Kern County. The agency sought the assistance of LSA to prepare a Noise Study Report for ten locations throughout the County. The locations were selected based on citizen requests over the last 10 years. LSA's scope of work included both long-term and short-term noise measurements. Roadway traffic noise modeling was performed using the FHWA approved Traffic Noise Model (TNM) 2.5. The Noise Study Reports were prepared using the latest version of Caltrans' Noise Study Report outline. For all modeled receivers that were shown to approach or exceed the noise abatement criteria, abatement measures that would achieve a minimum 5 dBA reduction were analyzed.
