Noise Level Of Fireworks (EDM1981)

Noise Level Of Fireworks

EDM number 1981 in 2008-09, proposed by Paul Rowen on 12/10/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Consumers.

That this House notes that fireworks are currently permitted to produce up to 120 decibels (dBAI) of weighted impulsive sound pressure under the Fireworks Regulations 2004; further notes that such a level is like a jumbo jet taking off; calls on the Government to legislate for a maximum level of 97 dBAI weighted impulsive sound pressure level; further notes that such a level is like a car door slamming; and concludes that such a level would reduce stress caused to animals and wildlife and reduce sound nuisance.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
