The term "noise standards" refers to a set of guidelines or criteria that define acceptable levels of noise in various environments. These standards are typically established by government agencies, professional organizations, or other regulatory bodies and are used to ensure public health and safety, as well as to minimize disruptions caused by excessive noise. Noise standards may vary depending on the type of environment (e.g., residential, commercial, industrial) and the specific activities taking place within that space (e.g., music performances, construction work). The goal is to maintain a balance between allowing necessary levels of sound while minimizing negative impacts on individuals and communities.
