Responses to noise complaints.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to responses to noise complaints

Int. No. 1653-B would require the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to set rules for specific time frames for inspections in response to certain types of noise complaints. It would also require DEP to submit annual reports on inspections in response to noise complaints and that all noise mitigation plans be filed electronically. This bill would also create new violations for noise which exceeds certain decibel levels and authorize DEP to issue stop work orders in response to certain noise violations.
