Utilize a three-pronged approach to noise analysis. Work to understand the existing and proposed noise sources, and the relationship to terrain, land use and other contributing factors; conduct detailed modeling to simulate the existing and proposed conditions; and identify mitigation options to avoid or minimize noise related impacts.
Prepare design plans for structural barriers and other mitigation options. Provide cost-benefit analysis to evaluate alternatives and public outreach to ensure that mitigation fits within the context of adjacent communities.
