APPENDIX 7.1: GLOSSARY OF TERMINOLOGY

134 Appendix 7.1: Glossary of Terminology

In order to assist the understanding of acoustic terminology and the relative change in noise, the following background information is provided.

The human ear can detect a very wide range of pressure fluctuations, which are perceived as sound. In order to express these fluctuations in a manageable way, a logarithmic scale called the decibel, or dB scale is used. The decibel scale typically ranges from 0dB (the threshold of hearing) to over 120dB. An indication of the range of sound levels commonly found in the environment is given in the following table. Table A-1 Sound Levels Commonly Found in the Environment

Sound Level Location 0dB(A) Threshold of hearing 20 to 30dB(A) Quiet bedroom at night 30 to 40dB(A) Living room during the day 40 to 50dB(A) Typical office 50 to 60dB(A) Inside a car 60 to 70dB(A) Typical high street 70 to 90dB(A) Inside factory 100 to 110dB(A) Burglar alarm at 1m away 110 to 130dB(A) Jet aircraft on take off 140dB(A) Threshold of Pain

Acoustic Terminology dB (decibel) The scale on which sound pressure level is expressed. It is defined as 20 times the logarithm of the ratio between the root-mean-square pressure of the sound field and a reference pressure (2x10-5Pa). dB(A) A-weighted decibel. This is a measure of the overall level of sound across the audible spectrum with a frequency weighting (i.e. ‘A’ weighting) to compensate for the varying sensitivity of the human ear to sound at different frequencies.

LAeq Defined as the notional steady sound level which, over a stated period of time, would contain the same amount of acoustical energy as the A-weighted fluctuating sound measured over that period.

L10& L90 If a non-steady noise is to be described it is necessary to know both its level and the degree of fluctuation. The Ln indices are used for this purpose, and the term refers to the level exceeded for n% of the time. Hence L10 is the level exceeded for 10% of the time and as such can be regarded as the 'average maximum level'. Similarly, L90 is the ‘average minimum level’ and is often used to describe the background noise. It is common practice to use the L10 index when describing traffic noise.

LAmax The maximum A - weighted sound pressure level recorded over the period stated. LAmax is sometimes used in assessing environmental noise where occasional loud noises occur, which may have little effect on the overall Leq noise level but will still affect the noise environment.

Newton Manor Farm Staffordshire - Wind Turbine Proposal.txt From: Windfarms Team [[email protected]] Sent: 01 August 2011 14:16 To: Sally Walker Cc: Martin Lawton; John Taylor Subject: Newton Manor Farm, Staffordshire - Wind Turbine Proposal Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Red

Dear Sally,

Site Name: Newton Manor Farm, Staffordshire Turbine at NGR: SK 03692 26017 Hub Height: 50m Rotor Radius: 17m This proposal cleared with respect to radio link infrastructure operated by National Grid Gas Networks and Central Networks

JRC analyses proposals for wind farms on behalf of the UK Fuel & Power Industry.This is to assess their potential to interfere with radio systems operated by utility companies in support of their regulatory operational requirements.

In the case of this proposed wind energy development, JRC does not foresee any potential problems based on known interference scenarios and the data you have provided. However,if any details of the wind farm change, particularly the disposition or scale of any turbine(s), it will be necessary to re-evaluate the proposal.Please note that due to the large number of adjacent radio links in this vicinity, which have been taken into account, clearance is given specifically for a location within 100m of the declared grid reference (quoted above).

In making this judgement, JRC has used its best endeavours with the available data, although we recognise that there may be effects which are as yet unknown or inadequately predicted. JRC cannot therefore be held liable if subsequently problems arise that we have not predicted.

It should be noted that this clearance pertains only to the date of its issue. As the use of the spectrum is dynamic, the use of the band is changing on an ongoing basis and consequently, you are advised to seek re-coordination prior to submitting a planning application, as this will negate the possibility of an objection being raised at that time as a consequence of any links assigned between your enquiry and the finalisation of your project. JRC offers a range of radio planning and analysis services. If you require any assistance, please contact us by phone or email.

PROPOSED WINDTURBINE : Newton Manor Farm NGR (SK 0369 2601)

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the above proposal. Arqiva is responsible for providing the BBC and ITV’s transmission network and therefore is responsible for ensuring the integrity of Re-Broadcast Links (RBLs). Based on the information that you provided, our analysis shows that the proposed wind turbine is unlikely to affect any of our RBLs.

Regarding microwave links Arqiva has no concerns with this proposal . The turbine is located 910m NE of BBC/Stoke DAB link between Tick Hill and Sutton Coldfield.

For your future reference we request a 200m wide corridor (i.e. ±100m) about the line-of-sight path be kept clear of any turbine or part thereof.

If this turbine position is changed please notify Arqiva so that we can re-evaluate the proposal.

Yours sincerely,

APPENDIX 8.2: MICROWAVE LINK CHART

137 MICROWAVE COMMUNICATIONS LINKS - Microwave Link Chart

A search for microwave links in the vicinity of the proposed wind farm was undertaken using Pager Power’s microwave link database. There appear to be:

• 0 communication links which end within the assessed site boundary; • 3 communication link which crosses the assessed site boundary; • 3 communication link which pass near the assessed site boundary;

It should be noted that the information is based on Pager Power’s microwave links database. As microwave links continuously change it is advised that before any layout is finalised a full Ofcom consultation and constraints analysis is undertaken.
