ORDINANCE NO. NS-1441 <br />PAGE FOUR <br /> <br />(c) In the event the ambient noise level <br />exceeds any of the first four (4) noise limit <br />categories above, the cumulative period ap- <br />plicable to said category shall be increased <br />to reflect said ambient noise level. In the <br />event the ambient noise level exceeds the <br />fifth noise limit category, the maximum <br />allowable noise level under said category <br />shall be increased to reflect the maximum <br />ambient noise level. <br /> <br />Section 18-313. Interior Noise Standards <br /> <br />(a) The following interior noise standards, <br />unless otherwise specifically indicated, shall <br />apply to all residential property within a <br />designated noise zone: <br /> <br />INTERIOR NOISE STANDARDS <br /> <br />Noise Zone <br /> <br />Noise Level <br /> <br />Time Period <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br />55 dB (A) <br />45 dB (A) <br /> <br />7:00 a.m.- <br />10:00 p.m. <br />10:00 p.m.- <br />7:00 a.m. <br /> <br /> In the event the alleged offensive noise con- <br />sists entirely of impact noise, simple tone noise, speech, <br />music, or any combination thereof, each of the above <br />noise levels shall be reduced by five (5) dB(A). <br /> <br />(b) It shall be unlawful for any person at <br />any location within the City of Santa Ana <br />to create any noise, or to allow the creation <br />of any noise on property owned, leased, occu- <br />pied, or otherwise controlled by such person, <br />when the foregoing causes the noise level, <br />when measured within any other dwelling unit <br />on any residential property, to exceed: <br /> <br />(1) The interior noise standard for a <br />cumulative period of more than five (5) <br />minutes in any hour; or <br /> <br />(2) The interior noise standard plus <br />five (5) dB(A) for a cumulative period <br />of more than one (1) minute in any <br />hour; or <br /> <br />(3) The interior noise standard plus <br />ten (10) dB(A) for any period of time. <br /> <br />(c) In the event the ambient noise level ex- <br />ceeds either of the first two (2) noise limit <br />categories above, the cumulative period appli- <br />cable to said category shall be increased to <br />reflect said ambient noise level. In the event <br />the ambient noise level exceeds the third noise <br />limit category, the maximum allowable noise <br />level under said category shall be increased <br />to reflect the maximum ambient noise level. <br /> <br /> <br />
