1. Application Of Noise Performance Standards: Any use established in an Industrial District shall be so operated as to comply with the performance standards governing noises set forth hereinafter for the district in which such use shall be located. No use already established on the effective date of this Title shall be so altered or modified as to conflict with or further conflict with the performance standards governing noise established hereinafter for the district in which such use is located. Objectionable sounds of an intermittent nature shall be controlled so as not to become a nuisance to adjacent use.
2. Method Of Measurements Of Noise Levels: Sound levels shall be measured with a soundlevel meter and associated octave band filter, manufactured in compliance with standards described by the American Standards Association. Measurements shall be made using the flat network of the sound level meter. Impulsive type noises shall be subject to the performance standards hereinafter prescribed provided that such noises shall be capable of being accurately measured with such equipment. Noises capable of being so measured shall be those noises which cause rapid fluctuations of the needle of the sound level meter with a variation of no more than plus or minus two (2) decibels. Noises incapable of being so measured, such as those of an irregular and intermittent nature, shall be controlled so as not to become a nuisance to adjacent uses.
3. Limitations On Noise Levels In I-1 And I-2 Districts: At no point on the boundary of a residence or business district shall the sound intensity level of any individual operation or plant (other than the operation of motor vehicles or other transportation facilities) exceed the decibel levels in the designated octave bands shown in Table 1 set forth hereinafter for districts indicated:
   
   TABLE 1
   
   

   Octave Band	Maximum Permitted Sound Level (decibels)
   (Frequency, cycles/sec.)	Along R District Boundaries	Along B District Boundaries
   0 to 75	72	79
   75 to 150	67	74
   150 to 300	59	66
   300 to 600	52	59

   Above 4,800	32	39

   (Ord. 78-31, 3-5-79)
   
   In the event property has been rezoned from a non-residential use to a residential use, and that property is adjacent to property in an I-1 or I-2 district, the maximum permitted sound level in the industrial district shall remain the standard for property adjacent to B district boundaries. (amd. Ord. 01-27, 11-5-01)
   

1. Application Of Smoke And Particulate Matter Performance Standards: Any use established in an Industrial District shall be so operated as to comply with the performance standards governing smoke and particulate matter set forth hereinafter for the district in which such use shall be located. No use already established on the effective date of this Title shall be so altered or modified as to conflict with, or further conflict with, the performance standards governing smoke and particulate matter established hereinafter for the district in which such use is located.
2. Method Of Measurement Of Smoke And Particulate Matter And General Limitations:
   1. For the purpose of grading the density of smoke, the Ringelmann Chart, published and used by the U.S. Bureau of Mines, shall be employed. The emission of smoke or particulate matter of a density greater than No. 2 on the Ringelmann Chart is prohibited at all times except as otherwise provided hereinafter.
   2. The emission from all sources within any lot area of particulate matter containing more than ten percent (10%) by weight of particles having a particle diameter larger than forty four (44) microns is prohibited.
   3. Dust and other types of air pollution borne by the wind from such sources as storage areas, yards, roads, and the like within lot boundaries, shall be kept to a minimum by appropriate landscaping, paving, oiling, fencing, or acceptable means. Emission of limitations specified hereinafter is prohibited.
3. Limitations On Smoke And Particulate Matter:
   1. Smoke And Particulate Matter In I-1 Districts: The emission of more than sixty (60) smoke units per hour per stack is prohibited, including smoke of density in excess of Ringelmann No. 2. However, during three (3) one (1) hour periods in each twenty four (24) hour day, each stack may emit up to seventy two (72) smoke units when blowing soot or cleaning fires. Only during fire cleaning periods, however, shall smoke of Ringelmann No. 3 be permitted, and then for not more than four (4) minutes.
      
      The rate of emission of particulate matter from all sources within the boundaries of any lot shall not exceed a net figure of one pound (1 lb) per acre of lot area during any one (1) hour, after deducting from the gross hourly emission per acre the correction factors set forth in Tables 2, 3, and 4 following for height, velocity, and temperature of emission, respectively. Determination of the total net rate of emission of particulate matter within the boundaries of any lot shall be made as follows:
      1. Determine the maximum emission in pounds per hour from each source of emission and divide this figure by the number of acres of lot area, thereby obtaining the gross hourly rate of emission in pounds per acre.
      2. From each gross hourly rate of emission derived in Step 1a above, deduct the appropriate correction factor (interpolating as required) for height, velocity, and temperature of emission set forth in Tables 2, 3, and 4, thereby obtaining the net rate of emission in pounds per acre per hour from each source of emission.
      3. Add together the individual net rates of emission derived in Step 1b above, to obtain the total net rate of emission from all sources of emission within the boundaries of the lot. Such total shall not exceed one pound (1 lb) per acre of lot area during any one (1) hour.

   2. Smoke And Particulate Matter In I-2 Districts: The emission of more than seventy six (76) smoke units per hour per stack is prohibited, including smoke of a density in excess of Ringelmann No. 2. However, during six (6) one (1) hour periods in each twenty four (24) hour day, each stack may emit up to one hundred twelve (112) smoke units, blowing soot and for cleaning fires. During fire cleaning periods only, smoke of a density of Ringelmann No. 3 shall be permitted and then not for more than six (6) minutes per period.
      
      The rate of emission of particulate matter from all sources within the boundaries of any lot shall not exceed a net figure of three (3) pounds per acre of lot area during any one (1) hour, after deducting from the gross hourly emission per acre the correction factors set forth in Tables 5, 6, and 7 following for height, velocity, and temperature of emission, respectively. Determination of the total net rate of emission of particulate matter within the boundaries of any lot shall be made as follows:
      
      1. Determine the maximum emission in pounds per hour from each source of emission and divide this figure by the number of acres of lot area, thereby obtaining the gross hourly rate of emission in pounds per acre.
      2. From each gross hourly rate of emission derived in Step 2a above, deduct the appropriate correction factor (interpolating when necessary) for height, velocity, and temperature of emission set forth in Tables 5, 6, and 7 which follow, thereby obtaining the net rate of emission in pounds per acre per hour from each source of emission.
      3. Add together the individual net rates of emission derived in Step 2b above, to obtain the total net rate of emission within the boundaries of the lot. Such total shall not exceed three pounds (3 lb) per acre during any one (1) hour.
