Abstract
Washington State is actively involved with community noise, especially roadway noise, and is involved in developing outdoor alternative noise evaluation techniques and implementing community noise reduction strategies where applicable. In this presentation Tim Sexton and Jim Laughlin will discuss the current status of Washington State noise law, regulation, transportation policy, and various methods for approaching community concerns where the propagation of noise is difficult to model and even tougher to reduce. Examples include the Interstate 5 Ship Canal Bridge in Seattle, the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, quieter pavement research, construction noise in relation to local city and county noise ordinances, and preliminary work with local cities and counties on noise compatible land use.
