Abstract
The Ministry of Environment, Conservation, and Parks introduced the Class 4 noise area classification for land-use planning applications in 2013. A Class 4 classification is used in special cases where new noise sensitive developments are proposed in proximity to existing, lawfully established stationary noise source(s). This infrequently used classification is typically applied for in-fill developments in urban settings where land-use compatibility concerns are common. This work summarizes the Class 4 design criteria and discusses the practical implementation of the classification in the context of land-use planning.
