The Noise Regulations set assigned (allowable) noise levels for noise received at various types of premises. However, the regulations create several special cases where noise emissions may not be required to meet these assigned levels.
When dealing with rural activities under regulation 12, the assigned noise levels set out in regulations 7 and 8 do not apply to noise emitted from a farming vehicle on rural premises, under certain conditions. If the conditions are not met, the farming vehicle must meet the assigned levels.
