ON THE PROVISIONS OF THE NOISE CONTROL ORDINANCE RELATING ΤΟ NEIGHBOURHOOD NOISE, A TOTAL OF 48 PERSONS WERE PROSECUTED BY THE POLICE FOR CAUSING EXCESSIVE NOISE FROM DOMESTIC PLACES AT NIGHT WITH FINES RANGING FROM $150 TO $500.

THE EPD SPOKESMAN EXPLAINED THAT IN CASE 19, A PILING CONTRACTOR WAS FINED $2,000 FOR CARRYING OUT PERCUSSIVE PILING WITHOUT USING AN ACOUSTIC SHROUD AS REQUIRED IN THE PERMIT.

THIS WAS THE FIRST CASE CONVICTED UNDER A SECTION IN NOISE CONTROL ORDINANCE WHICH MAKES IT AN OFFENCE TO CARRY OUT PERCUSSIVE PILING EITHER WITHOUT A VALID CONSTRUCTION NOISE PERMIT

NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONDITIONS IN A CONSTRUCTION NOISE PERMIT. THIS SECTION BECAME EFFECTIVE IN NOVEMBER LAST YEAR.
