​Acoustic Consulting Services

​ATCO Emissions Management’s acoustical engineers and consultants bring specialized knowledge and expertise to investigate and solve noise issues at industrial facilities.  With hundreds of successfully completed noise surveys and modeling assignments worldwide, we have gained a solid reputation for our quality industrial noise control.

Services

• Ambient Surveys - Performing short or long duration sound level surveys to document the existing noise environment in terms of Ldn, Leq, L10, or any other descriptors required by applicable regulations.
 
• Regulatory Review – Analyzing and interpreting all applicable ordinances.
 

• Noise Impact Assessments - Preparing the acoustical sections of environmental impact statements.

• Occupational Noise Exposure - Monitoring in the workplace to quantify workers exposure to noise (dosimetry) and creation of workplace noise maps around stationary noise sources in industrial facilities to aid reduction strategies.

• Acoustical Compliance - Investigating compliance with noise by-laws, codes and ordinances; developing testing procedures; conducting and reporting the compliance survey.
 
• Noise Prediction - Predicting noise levels from existing and future planned facilities or sites using mathematical and empirical modeling techniques.

 
• Specification Development - Review of vendor equipment noise levels and development of the equipment noise level specifications for purchasing purposes.
 
• Design and Implementation of Noise Control - Modeling of cost-effective mitigation options, performing the detailed engineering, preparing as-built or fabrication drawings, and installing the noise control.
 
• Expert Testimony - Supporting clients at public hearings and open houses with acoustical engineering expertise.
