Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
This paper will examine some of the logical consequences of laws and policymaking as they relate to acoustics. In acoustics and noise control, "public policy" is used to try to legislate good behavior. Those who behave well do not need the laws. Those who do not will not obey the laws. Examples will be drawn from aviation and planning, examining the use of measures such as DNL. In particular, this paper will address how laws create unintended results, frequently not addressing the issue at all. |
