Acoustic measurements. 6.2.1.1. When no general statement or conclusion can be made about conformance of the sound level meter model to the full specifications of IEC 61672-1:2013,4 the apparatus used for measuring the sound pressure level shall be a sound level meter or equivalent measurement system meeting the requirements of Class 1 instruments as described in IEC 61672-3:2013.3 Measurements shall be carried out using the "fast" response of the acoustic measurement instrument and the "A" weighting curve as described in IEC 61672-1:20133. When using a system that includes a periodic monitoring of the A-weighted sound pressure level, a reading should be made at a time interval not greater than 30 ms. When measuring the rated sound frequency (or frequency range), the digital sound recording system shall have at least a 16 bit quantization. The average auto power spectrum shall be determined, using a Xxxxxxx window and at least 66.6 per cent overlap averages and cover the relevant frequency band. The instruments shall be maintained and calibrated in accordance with the instructions of the instrument manufacturer. 6.2.1.2. Calibration of the entire Acoustic Measurement System for a Measurement Session At the beginning and at the end of every measurement session the entire measurement system shall be checked by means of a sound calibrator that fulfils the requirements for sound calibrators of at least precision Class 1 according to IEC 60942:2003. Without any further adjustment the difference between the readings of two consecutive checks shall be less than or equal to 0.5 dB. If this value is exceeded, the results of the measurements obtained after the previous satisfactory check shall be discarded.

When using a system that includes a periodic monitoring of the A-weighted sound pressure level, a reading should be made at a time interval not greater than 30 ms. When measurements of the sound pressures in the one-third mid-band frequencies 2,000, 2,500 and 3,150 Hz are carried out for one-third octaves, the instrumentation shall meet all requirements of IEC 00000-0-0000, class 1. The sound pressure level in the mid-band frequency 2,500 Hz shall be determined by adding the quadratic means of the sound pressures in the one-third mid-band frequencies 2,000, 2,500 and 3,150 Hz. When measuring the rated sound frequency (or frequencies), the digital sound recording system shall have at least a 16 bit quantization.

Acoustic measurements. The apparatus used for measuring the noise level must be a precision sound-level meter of the type described in "Publication 651:Precision sound level meters", second edition, of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). Measurements must be carried out using the "fast" response of the sound-level meter and the "A" weighting curve which are also described in that publication. At the beginning and end of each set of measurements, the sound-level meter must be calibrated according to the manufacturer's instructions by means of an appropriate sound source (e.g. a pistonphone). The test must be considered invalid if the sound-level meter errors registered during this calibration exceed 1 dB. The actual deviation shall be stated in the approval document (annex 1).
Acoustic measurements. A precision sound level meter as defined in paragraph 1.1. of this annex must be used for the measurements.
Acoustic measurements. The primary purpose of acoustic monitoring is to empirically verify modeled injury and behavioral disturbance zones (defined at radial distances to NMFS-specified thresholds; see Estimated Take by Incidental Harassment). For non-pulsed sound, distances will continue to be evaluated for attenuation to the point at which sound becomes indistinguishable from background levels. Empirical acoustic monitoring data will be used to document transmission loss values determined from past measurements and to examine site-specific differences in SPL and affected ZOIs on an as needed basis. Should monitoring results indicate it is appropriate to do so, marine mammal mitigation zones may be revised as necessary to encompass actual ZOIs. Acoustic monitoring will be conducted as specified in the approved Monitoring Plan. Please see Table 2–2 of the Plan for a list of equipment to be used during acoustic monitoring. Monitoring locations will be determined based on results of previous acoustic monitoring effort and the best professional judgment of acoustic technicians. For activities such as demolition of the old fuel pier and temporary mooring dolphin, the Navy will continue to collect in situ acoustic data to validate source levels and ZOIs. Environmental data would be collected including but not limited to: Wind speed and direction, air temperature, humidity, surface water temperature, water depth, wave height, weather conditions and other factors that could contribute to influencing the airborne and underwater sound levels (e.g., aircraft, boats). Full details of acoustic monitoring requirements may be found in section 4.2 of the Navy’s Monitoring Plan. The Navy will collect sighting data and behavioral responses to construction for marine mammal species observed in the region of activity during the period of activity. All observers will be trained in marine mammal identification and behaviors and are required to have no other construction-related tasks while conducting monitoring. The Navy will monitor the shutdown zone and disturbance zone before, during, and after pile driving as described under Mitigation Measures and in the Monitoring Plan, with observers located at the best practicable vantage points. Notional monitoring locations are shown in Figures 3–3 and 3–4 of the Navy’s Plan. Please see that plan, available at xxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxx/xx/ permits/incidental/construction.htm, for full details of the required marine mammal monitoring. Section 3.2 of the Plan and Se...

  • Temperature Measurement Temperature will be measured by the nearest automatic Melbourne Bureau of Meteorology Monitoring Station for example (but not limited to): Melbourne, Moorabbin, Dunns Hill, Melbourne Airport, Frankston, and Point Xxxxxx. At the commencement of each project, the onsite management and employee representatives shall agree which is to be the applicable automatic weather monitoring station.

  • Measurements Units set out in SI (metric) are the governing units for the purposes of this Contract. Units set out in Imperial measurement in parentheses beside their SI (metric) equivalent are for reference only and in the event of a conflict between SI (metric) and Imperial measurement herein, SI (metric) shall prevail.

  • Performance Measurement The Uniform Guidance requires completion of OMB-approved standard information collection forms (the PPR). The form focuses on outcomes, as related to the Federal Award Performance Goals that awarding Federal agencies are required to detail in the Awards.

  • Measuring EPP parameters Every 5 minutes, EPP probes will select one “IP address” of the EPP servers of the TLD being monitored and make an “EPP test”; every time they should alternate between the 3 different types of commands and between the commands inside each category. If an “EPP test” result is undefined/unanswered, the EPP service will be considered as unavailable from that probe until it is time to make a new test.

  • Measuring DNS parameters Every minute, every DNS probe will make an UDP or TCP “DNS test” to each of the public-­‐DNS registered “IP addresses” of the name servers of the domain name being monitored. If a “DNS test” result is undefined/unanswered, the tested IP will be considered unavailable from that probe until it is time to make a new test.

The Parties agree that seeking and obtaining such interim measures shall not waive the right to arbitration. The arbitrators (or in an emergency the presiding arbitrator acting alone in the event one or more of the other arbitrators is unable to be involved in a timely fashion) may grant interim measures including injunctions, attachments and conservation orders in appropriate circumstances, which measures may be immediately enforced by court order. Hearings on requests for interim measures may be held in person, by telephone, by video conference or by other means that permit the parties to the Dispute to present evidence and arguments.
