Abstract
Increasing enforcement of OSHA (in‐plant) noise exposure and community (property‐line noise) regulation, imply that cost‐effective noise control must be incorporated as part of the design process. Such a design can be expected to not only reduce potential problems with regulatory agencies and nearby residents but to result in a better engineered power plant. The need for and state‐of‐the‐art power plant noise control is briefly reviewed. Engineering of a power plant can be broken into five phases: proposal, environmental assessment, preliminary engineering, detailed engineering, and start‐up. Details of how and where to incorporate noise in plant design are given for each of these five phases of design. Further information regarding suggested noise control engineering personnel requirements and organization are also given.
