Noise Pollution Monitoring And Control At Chitapur Town Kalaburagi

Abstract

Noise pollution can be divided into three groups industrial noise, community noise and traffic noise. In the case of traffic noise, major portion of traffic noise is contributed by heavy vehicles (Commercial Trucks and Buses) only. An uncontrolled movement of these heavy vehicles in the town creates so called 'traffic jam' and finally creates noise. In this paper we are trying to know about the values of noise pollution at the various locations of Chittapur town kalaburagi district. And all the values we have got after survey are more than CPCB standards during Morning, Afternoon and Evening hours. Which is not good for the environment and for the human being, so the suggestions are given to reduce the noise levels as much as possible.
