This International Standard defines the procedures for noise control of mainly open plants.

It is applicable to the following:

• specification of procedures for noise control during engineering of a new plant and modification/extension of existing plants (construction noise procedures are outside the scope of this International Standard but should be considered);
• definition of responsibilities of parties involved, viz. “end-user”, “engineering contractor” and “equipment supplier”;
• description of general procedures to arrive at noise requirements for individual equipment, on the basis of overall noise requirements for the plant.

A schematic flowchart, reviewing the noise control process, is presented in annex A and a summary of action items is presented in annex B.
