The District Municipality of Independencia, within its competence, will encourage the development of educational activities in the municipality aimed at forming a culture of preventive noise among citizens in order to protect the environment and improve the quality of life of the population. The ultimate objective of the regulatory framework can generally be considered as the control of environmental noise and the prevention of its effects as a noise nuisance. To this end, it prescribes emission limit values for the various sound sources and emission limit values at the location of the consignees. The implementation of the Spanish legal framework is ensured by the ±Law 37/2003, of 17 November, on noise, which regulates air pollution in a broader sense than the directive itself, since, in addition to defining parameters and measures for the assessment and control of noise in the environment, it also takes into account noise and vibrations inside certain buildings. It also ensures greater cohesion in the fight against air pollution by©creating the necessary instruments to improve the acoustic quality of our environment. Within the autonomous framework, the Autonomous Community of Andalusia has regulated air pollution by specific regulations in this regard, starting with Law 7/1994 of 18 May, 18 May, already repealed, and the Regulation on Air Quality, approved by Decree 74/1996 of 20 February, which regulates for the first time the field of air pollution. This regulation was drawn up by Decree 326/2003 of 25 November, which approves the regulation for protection against air pollution in Andalusia, one of the stages of which is the development of a model municipal regulation against air pollution, which aims to regulate the protection of the urban environment against noise and vibrations that mean nuisance. risk or ±damage to persons or property of any kind; and provide municipalities with a tool to address air pollution issues in their respective communities. To this end, the European Commission is developing a noise reduction programme, which includes the Green Paper “Future noise policy” (1996). Subsequently, the Sixth Community Environment Action Programme sets out the guidelines for European environmental policy for the period 2001-2010 and sets the objective of reducing the number of people regularly and constantly exposed to high noise levels. In this context, Directive 2002/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise is adopted, which considers noise as a major environmental problem requiring more harmonised measurement, estimation© and evaluation in order to prevent and eliminate it. The adoption of Law 7/2007 of 9 July 2007 on Integrated Environmental Quality Management constitutes the current legal reference framework for the development of environmental quality in the Autonomous Community of Andalusia. With regard to air pollution, this law establishes a regulation that (in accordance with the provisions of Law 37/2003, of 17 November, on noise) includes a new territorial bonus, establishes the legal framework for the preparation of noise maps and action plans, provides for the possibility of designating acoustic easements and determines the regulations©applicable in acoustic zones, in which the objectives are not met.
the quality required. The Sixth Environmental Action Programme of the European Union (EU) [1] considers that legislation remains essential to address environmental problems in general, while exploring other ways of achieving environmental objectives. For this reason, and because the legal framework provides information and prescribes on all noise issues (noise sources and their emissions, immissions and acoustic sensitivity of the final recipients of noise pollution), it seemed appropriate to start this series of articles with the legal situation. The scope of this regulation is the jurisdiction of the District of Independencia, which is obliged to comply with all natural persons, legal representatives of legal entities, administrators, drivers, managers and / or users of public and private entities located in the District of Independencia. In 1995, in order to establish the framework for measures and mechanisms to improve and maintain air quality, the Ministry of the Environment, Housing and Physical Planning issued Decree No. 948, which established the maximum permissible standards for the emission of noise and environmental noise in the national territory according to the different types of sectors defined therein. (n) Calibration certificate: document containing all test results, such as information on calibration uncertainty, calibration status and conditions, and a traceability report. It is important that all measurements have sufficient traceability according to national or international standards and that the calibration laboratory is accredited. that the Legal Advice Service by the Legal Report No. 106-2017-GAL/MDI of 14. In March 2017, it approved the draft ordinance regulating the prevention and control of noise pollution in the district of Independencia; In these areas, noise levels are applied as follows: Article eight.- Tasks of the Municipality of Independencia 4.
Management of local economic development, in operating permits for commercial, industrial and service enterprises that could emit noise. 3. establish, define and apply the scale of penalties for activities within their competence. 1. Class 1: It is most often used for noise measurements because of its accuracy. (i) Acoustics: science that studies the formation, propagation, reception and properties of sound. It is the urban areas intended primarily for the use of housing or housing that, according to zoning, allow the presence of high, medium and low population concentrations. (t) Immission: the level of continuous sound pressure equivalent to the power A perceived by the receiver at a specific location different from the position of the noise-producing source(s). (v) Monitoring: programmed measurement and data acquisition of parameters that influence or alter the quality of the environment.
Any natural or legal person has the right to report the facts constituting an infringement of the provisions of this ordinance and, if necessary, to invoke them before the various competent dependencies of the municipality. 9.2. Annual environmental assessment and monitoring plan Article Fourteen – Producer responsibility Critical areas of noise pollution are those where the incidence of noise is highest caused by various domestic, commercial and service activities. In these areas, critical noise pollution areas within the jurisdiction will be identified and priority must be given to the measures necessary to control them and their inclusion in the local noise monitoring and monitoring programme. (b) The indiscriminate use of megaphone loudspeakers, public address systems, whistles, pyrotechnics, bells and similar or other means. (e) Ambient noise (external noise): Any noise that may cause discomfort outside the enclosure or property containing the emitting source. Eleventh article.- Critical areas of noise pollution These are urban areas mainly intended for the establishment and operation of industrial production facilities. (a) the use of public address systems or other instruments producing noise above the sound level laid down in this Regulation. Owners, representatives, managers or managers of buildings and facilities where noise is generated are required to provide all facilities required by the case to ensure that environmental supervisors and inspectors conduct adequate environmental monitoring of the site where noise nuisance is caused or likely to occur. The following expert bodies of the municipality are involved in the control of noise emissions: The most general reference at European level for©air pollution is the Fifth Environment and Sustainable Development Action Programme (approved by the European Commission on 18 March 1992), which limits the increase in air pollution and accepts it as good, values that may be tolerable.
