1.0 INTRODUCTION
The noise impact of a power plant needs to be determined as part of the NRC licensing procedure. To assess the enviaonmental noise impact of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power ( Station, a series of noise surveys and analyses have been e.onducted. A preoperational noise survey was performed by the NUS Corporation in May of 1974. As part of the operational survey, Acoustic Technology, Inc. (ATI) conducted a predictive analysis which afforded insight to the possible power plant noise sources and provided a quantitative prediction as to the effect of the operational power plant on the existing noise levels. Further, ATI performed an extensive operational noise survey which provided a reliable, statistical statement as to the environmental noise conditions. Finally, with the data from the noise surveys and predictions, ATI assessed the impact of the operational power station and made a number of conclusions and recommendations. This report begins with a brief summary of the NUS preoperational survey and discusses the measurement locations, survey conditions and results. The next section continues with the predictive analysis. Each of the identified plant i noise sources is considered and the absolute levels due to the plant operation are tabulated. The results of these -ir ~ ) Accusuc TECHNOLOGY INC. w
predictions are shown in Tables V through VIII. Chapter 3.0 concludes with a comparison of predicted to preoperational noise levels in the vicinity of the power station. Chapter 4.0 continues with the full load operational r.oise survey. The survey methods and equipment are described in detail and the results are discussed. The survey results are tabulated in Tables XI thru XIV. Appendix A contains typical frequency spectra from select measurement locations and times. Appendix B presents typical noise variation histograms from the noise sensitive lccations. Appendix C contains cumulative percent distribution curves derived from the histogram values of Appendix B. Chapter 5.0 contains the environmental impact analysis. Each of the five closest noise sensitive areas is considered in light of the EPA noise regulations, and the measured operational noise levels are compared with preoperational noise levels. Chapter 6.G outlines a number of conclusions and recommendations based upon the analysis of Chapters 3.0 thru 5.0. 4m 1 AccusTic TECHNOLOGY INC. s
2.0. PREOPERATIONAL SURVEY 2.1 Measurement Locations and Conditions In order to provide a reference point against which the operational impact of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station could be judged, a preoperational noise survey was conducted l by the NUS Corporation during May of 1974 The survey included measurements taken during the periods of daytime (0700-1900 hr), evening (1900-2200 hr) and nighttime (2200-0700 hr). The preoperational measurement locations can be seen on Map 1 cnd a brief description of each site is listed in Table I. The meteorological data obtained during the survey from the on-site meteorological tower and supplemented with data from nearby airports are shown i r. Table II. 2.2. Results and Discussion The principal noise sources during the survey were highway traffic along Route 2 and wave action along the shores of Lake Erie. The weekday daytime measurements included noise contributions frem the construction of the plant itself. At the time of the survey, however, a large portion of the ;i e a v y outdoor construction was completed so that construction noise was negligible compared to that of the principal noise sources. Other audible sources of noise during the survey m

included wind, birds, rifle fire from Camp Perry and distant Lawnmowers. There were no intermittant or particularly annoying sounds which required 'setave band analysis. The L 50 sound levels at each measurement location and each sampling time are listed in Table III. 4_ <@w " 1 ;:, ACOUSTIC I ECHNOLOGY INC. a
4 3.0 PREDICTION OF NOISE LEVELS AT NOISE SENSITIVE LOCATIONS 4 9 t 3.1 Prediction Techniques The noise levels due to the operation of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station at each cf the noise sensitive locations around the plant (see Table IV and Map 1) can be predicted. This is done by identifying major noise generating equipment 4 on the plant site and knowing the relative location of this i equipment with respect to the noise sensitive areas. In doing the noise level predictions, four pieces of plant equipment were considered as the major contributors to noise in the areas surrounding the power p l. a n t. These noise sources include the cooling tower, the main transformer unit, the ventilation system for the turbine and transformer, and the steam relief valves. With specific information about this equipment, both the equivalent sound levels and octave band i sound levels due to each piece of equipment at each of the noise sensitive locations can be predicted. After the contribution of each noise source at each sensitive location has been determined, the logarithmic sum of these separate contributions can be taken to yield the total. praicted noise level at each sensitive location due to the r plant 1 operation., i a M AccusTIC TECrWOLOGY INC. %;L;/ 1 .-m_ .m
th=, m. 3.2 Major Plant Noise Sources 1 3. 2.' 1 Cooling Tower The cooling tower on the Davis-Besse site is a natural draft, counter flow cooling tower. It has a full load operating capacity of 480,000 gallons of water per minute. Contribution of noise due to the cooling tower at each of the five nearest noise sensitive locations was predicted using a method developed by Capano and Bradley The results of this p edictive technique are tabulated in Table V. The noise from the cooling tower is a result of the cooling water splashing in the tower's collecting pool. The water enters the tower and is sprayed over vertical sheets of board-like fill material. The water flows through t h c-s e sheets and is cooled by the natural draft of air flowing upward through these same sheets. After the water passes completely through these vertical spaces, it drips into the collecting pool at the base of the tower. The splashing of the drops of cooled water into the collecting pool sounds like a waterfall and produces noise of the same nature: constant and continuous. 3.2.2 Main Transformer The main transformer on the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station is rated at 980 MVA and is 30.2 feet high, 31.6 feet long and 15.7 feet wide. Typical large transformers are potential,Gr T] Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC. W-

.o .s contributors to pure tones emitted by the station. The pure tones, are generated in the core of the transformer by magnetostrictive effects at the fundamental frequency of 120 Hz and its associated harmonics of 240, 360 and 480 Hz. The contributions to the predicted noise levels and octave band levels at the five. nearest ' noise sensitive locations of the main trancformer were calculated using a technique developed by Gordon In propagating the acoustic predictions from the plant site to the noise sensitive locations, attenuations due t to spherical wave divergence and atmospheric absorption were considered. The results of these calculations are shown in i Table VI. I 3.2.3 Ventilation System Noise The significant fan noise emissions from the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station are a result of the turbine building exhaust and ventilation systems. The turbine exhaust system consists of 6 axial type fans. operating at 485 RPM, 55,000 cfm i and a pressure rise of 0.25 inches of water. The ventilation a system consists of 6 centrifugal type fans operating at 939 RPM, 10,000 cfm and 1.75 inches of water pressure iise; plus 4 centrifugal fans operated at 990 RPM, 10,000 cfm and a pressure rise of 2 inches of water. Fan noise is generated by i ( the movement of air across the pressure differential created l by the rotation of the fan blades. The characteristic frequency of the noise lies in the octave band containing the h_ AccusTic T0cHNOLOG ,. _-,, -_,,.-..,_...,~~,_,

The noise emitted from 0 i the fans was calculated using a method described by the Edison 6] Electric Institute The results of these calculations suggest that fan noise will not be a contributor to the power plant noise impact at any of the noise sensitive locations. The fan noise levels will be well below ambient noise levels and can be neglected.as contributors to noise levels at the sensitive locations. 3.2.4 Power Relief Valves The main power relief valves are used to dissipate excess i steam which r'e s u l t s from unpredictable changes in station operating load. Davis-Besse Power Nuclear Power Station has two atmospheric vent valves in the steam system. Noise is i generated from these valves.because of turbulent flow from the valve orifice passing downstream through the standing shock
- waves, creating shock interaction
- noise, and from the turbulent jet exiting from the discharge pipe mixing with the atmosphere and causing jet mixing noise.
The noise emitted s from the power vent valves was calculated using a method described by the Edison Electric Institute The predictions based on this method are shown in Table VII for each of the octave band frequencies and for an equivalent sound level (L ) while steam is being discharged. These eq values are deceptively large because the valves operate only ! k Rh

intermittently, and high noise levels for short periods of time will not effect the equivalent day-night sound level indicator required by the EPA. 3.3 Combined Predicted Plant Noise g Sensitive Locations Tables V thru VII predict the separate noise contribution at each noise sensitive location due to various noise sources on the Davis-Besse site. These values have been logarithmically summed to yield the composite total noise prediction at each noise sensitive location. The results of this summation are shown in Table VIII. The octave band analysis and L noise levets were included at each sensitive location and these i values reflect the combined predicted noise from the coo 8.ing tower and main transformer, the major continuous noise sources. I 1 l 3.4 Comparison of Predicted to Preoperational Noise Levels f_ Examination of Table VIII shows that only three of the five i identified noise sensitive locations exhibit predicted noise levels which are large enough to have a possible effect on ambient noise conditions. Predicted noise levels for S2 and S3 are well below ambient levels. Of the remaining three, l sensitive locations S1 and SS are both on the lakefront. The _9_ KT> s.T;j AccusTic TECHNOLOGY INC. w, _ _ - _ _ ~ ~ - - _ _ _. _ _. _ _. _.., _ - ~ _ _ _ _ _
preoperational survey results suggest that because of wave and wind ambient noise, the predicted plant noise may be partially masked at these locations. The Locust Point Cemetery, S4, will be less effected by wave noise, but wind and traffic noise from Route 2 will have a great effect on ambient noise levels. Comparison with preoperational ambient noise levels suggests that at this location, predicted plant noise may produce an audible pure tone at the 125 Hz octave band, where predicted transformer noise slightly exceeds ambient levels. The noise attenuating effect of structures between the transformer building and S 4, however, will likely reduce this noise to below ambient levels. 1 The comparison of tu predictive analysis to the preoperational survey suggests that the results of the full Load operational survey should yield the highest noise levels at S1 and S5. The absolute value of these levels will be dependent mostly on existing wind and wave noise and slightly on power plant noise. Also, S4 may exhibit noise levels in the 125 Hz octave band which slightly exceed ambient levels, but should not exhibit any large change from preoperational conditions. Finally, at sensitive locations S2 and S3 there will be absolutely no contribution to existing noise levels by I the full load operatien of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. 1 i R %5;%N Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC.

4.0. FULL LOAD OPERATIONAL NOISE SURVEY t 4.1 Survey _ Methods and Equipment l A full load operational noise survey was conducted during May 23-25, 1983, by ATI consultants. The survey locations are shown on Msp 1 anc a brief description of each is provided in Table IV and Table IX. Because of the results of the predicted noise level analysis (see Chapter 3.0), the bulk of the noise mcasurements where conducted at sensitive locations S1 and SS. Locations S 2, S3 and S4 were visited at varying i times of the day in order to verify the predicted impact. Finally, a number of on-site sampling locations were chosen so that the power plant noise could be characterized and its propagation to off-site locations could be monitored. The methodology used in conducting the ambient noise survey incorporstes ANSI S3W50, which establishes guidelines for the evaluation of multiple sound sources in community noise. The survey locations and periods were chosen to yield a statistical statement of noise in the vicinity of the plant. Also, requirements as outlined in the Proposed Environmental Protection Plan for the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station (reference: NRC letter dated December 21, 1982) were considered when performing the noise survey. m M;l AccusTic TECHNOLOGY INO. w
At each measurement location and

Nagra IV-SJ u' sed to sample the typical instrumentation tape recorder was ambient noise environment. The recorder complies with ANSI S6.1-1973 (Qualifying a Sound Data Acquisition System). The microphone used was a B&K (3ruel & Kjaer) Type 4165 condenser microphone with the proper windscreen attached to a B&K Type 2215 Sound Level Meter operated in the linear mode. For each measurement Lccation and time, a 1-3 minute tape recorded sample was taken. Also, direct octave band, C-weighted and A-weighted sound level meter measurements were made. The recorded samples were then analyzed using a B&K Type 4426 Noise Level Analyzer which samples the varying sound level ten times a second for the duration of each tape-recorded sample. 10' 50' '90 and L,q The analyzer derives the A-weighted L sound levels from these data, plus a statistical histogram of the sound level variation. A B&K Type 2312 Alphanumeric Printer was used to produce the probability distribution histograms of select locations. All instruments are portable and battery-operated, requiring no power source. I i At the beginning of each tape, a calibration tone emitted from a B&K Type 4230 calibrator was recorded. All recording adjustments were noted and recorded on the tapes. Any variance from proper calibration was noted and proper l corrections were made to the data. This procedure was l followed in compliance with ANSI S1.10-1966 (Calibration of Microphones). l RA niin AccusTic TECHNOLOGY INC. i l
. - + + * -w i En order to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the noise emitted from the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station, its j propagation and impact, a number of frequency spectrum plots were made using a B&K Type 2031 Narrow Band Spectrum Analyzer. The analyzer produces a spectral plot of frequency versus amplitude and reveals the frequency content of the analyzed scund signal. This allows the i dentification of any recurring noise at specific frequencies and indicates if the characteristic frequencies of the plant are audible at any of the noise sensitive locations. 4.2 Results and Discussion

~ d 4.2.1a cooling Tower 4 The cooling tower noise is characterized by measurement location C1. This measurement point (approximately 100 feet from the cooling tower) will, because of its close location to the tower, provide noise information which will reflect only the contribution of noise from the tower itself. Table XI and Appendix A.1 suggest that the characteristic cooling tower noise is the same as was predicted; constant and continuous. The equivalent noise level (L ) is approximately 71 dBA at eq this close point. The octave band noise levels and spectral analysis indicate that there are no dominant frequencies which will cause pure tone impact or which will propagate to any of the noise sensitive locations. Also, the predictive technique employed in Section 3.2.1 predicts a noise level of approximately 75 dBA at 100 feet away from the cooling tower. This suggests that the cooling tower predicted levels are i slightly high (about 3-4 dBA) at each of the sensitive locations. Modifying Table V by 3 dBA would result in low L eq values. This suggests no noise impact of the cooling tower at the noise sensitive locations. 4.2.1b Pump House P .) The pump house noise can best be characterized by looking at l the results of the measurements taken at G1, approximately 50 feet east of the pump house. The pump house noise, regardless P(yf,j AccusnC TECHNOLOGY INC. w 4 e, ,,.--e- .,.-,,.. m,-_ --.-e.v ,.y _y ,-.,,,_,.,,,.n,,.., p. ,ry_,,., 7
I 4 of weather conditions, seems to be very high, as is indicated by the statistical descriptors of Table XI. The frequency spectrum analysis, Appendix A.2 and A.3, suggest that the pump house noise has a large component at 967.5 Hz and its associated harmonics of 1935, 2902.5, 3870 and 4837.5 Hz. t Examination of the octave band noise level breakdown verifies this. The octave band containing 967.5 Hz, the 1000 Hz band, shows a value 6-15 decibels higher than the neighboring octave bands. This suggests that if the pump house noise will have an impact at the nearest noise sensitive locations, it will be i distinguished by a noticeable amplitude at the 967.5 Hz frequency and an apparent increase in the 1000 Hz octave band. 4.2.1c Transformer 1 The transformer noise is best characterized by observing the l results of the measurements taken at T1, approximately 50 feet north of the transformer. The statistical descriptors of Table XI suggest that the transformer noise is quite high. The equivalent noise level (L ) ranged from 72 to 76 dBA at 50 feet from the transformer. Also, the octave band noise levels indicate the presence of a harmonic in the 125 Hz band, as was predicted in Section 3.2.2. The frequency spectrum analysis (see Appendix A.4 and A.5) shows the clear presence of the harmonic at 120 Hz and the associated higher i frequencies of 240, 360, 480, 600, 720 and 840 Hz. The 967.5 l Hz spike evident in Appendix A.4 and A.5 is the pump house I I. / ) Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC. l 49 I
fundamental frequency. The transformer noise, as well as the pump house
- noise, therefore, exhibits distinct frequency content.
This allowed the identification of the contribution of the transformer noise to the noise levels at each of the other measuring locations. 4.2.1d Propagation to Site Boundary in order to study the propagation of the identifiable plant no.ise to the site boundary, noise measurements were made along a line running north-east from the transformer (i.e. T2 and T3; see Map 1) and at the intersection of the site boundary with a line connecting the transformer _to the nearest resident (i.e. T4; see Map 1). The results of the measurements made at T2 suggest that the combined noise emitted from the transformer and pump house is attenuated about 15 decibels in the 700 feet from T1. The statistical descriptors of Table XI, the octave band noise levels (see Table XI) and the frequency spectrum amplitudes (see Appendix A), are all attenuated after moving from T1 to T2. The frequency spectra (see Appendix A.6 and A.7) still exhibit pronounced spikes at the transformer harmonics (120,
- 240, 360, 480, 600, 720 and 840 Hz) and the pump house fundamental frequency (967.5 Hz).
These spikes, though, are much lower in amplitude than the measurements at T1. my') Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC. .l
~- -.m-- s-m-e. Moving even farther along this north-easterly
- line, measurement point T3 (approximately 2500 feet from the transformer) is encountered.
At this measurement point, the increased distance from the power plant center has only a slight attenuating effect on the statistical descriptors, L10' 1 L L and L as is seen in Table XI. The contribution of 50' 90 the power plant to the measured noise levels at this 4 measurement location, however, has been largely attenuated by the increased distance. This is seen by comparing the octave i band breakdown from T2 and T3 (see Table XI) and comparing the frequency spectra (see Appendix A) of the same locations (i.e. T2 and T3). The octave band noise levels in the ranges characteristic of the power plant (i.e. 125 and 1000 Hz) have been attenuated by between 5 and 20 decibels. Also, the A.10) show decreases in frequency spectra (see Appendix A.8 the amplitude of the harmonics at 120, 240, 360, 480, 600, 720, 840 and 967.5 Hz of at least 15 decibles. This suggests that the statistical descriptor noise levels have remained l between 50 and 60 dBA (which corresponds to an L
- "9' dn l
l 56 to 66 dBA at the site boundary) mainly because of ambient i ( noise sources and only negligibly because of the power plant noise sources. Figure 1 is a three dimensional graph showing the frequency spectrum as a function of distance away from the transformer. This figure pictorially summarizes the changes in the frequency spectrum of the plant noise as one moves away from l l M NM AccusTic TECHNOLOGY INC. w L
{ the plant. As was noted before, the amplitude of the dominant plant- *requencies noticeably decreases as the distance from the transformer increases. As the distance from the ' transformer approaches the distance of the nearest resident, SS, from the plant, the frequency spectrum suggests that the power plant noise will fall below the ambient noise level. i The results of the measurements taken at T4 further support this conclusion. All of the statistical noise levels (see i Table XI) are quite low. This can be accounted for by the calm wind conditions which prevailed during the measurement and the increase in dis *ance from the lakefront (which will decrease wave noise) as compared to T3. The octave band noise i levels are consistent with ambient conditions (see Table XI) and the frequency spectrum analysis shows only one small spike l at 120 Hz (see Appendix A.11). Obviously, the dominant plant i frequencies are not present and ambient noise is contributing, in large part, to the existing noise levels. f 4.2.2 Sensitive Location Noise Characteristics and Noise I Levels T The off-site measurement locations (shown in Map 1 and Table IV) provide the tequired information in order to assess the operational impact of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station.

noise levels for each of the measurement locations and times. 1 The statistical data provide information concerning absolute i noise levels at each of the sensitive locations. The octave band analyses plus_the frequency spectra in Appendix A provide insight to the source of the noise at each of the measurement points. 4.2.2a S 2, S3 and S4 To best understand the noise evident at S2, a nearby wildlife refuge, the measurement locations and times S2A, S2B and S2C 4 will be most informative. The weather conditions, date, time, statistical descriptors and octave band noise levels can be found in Table XII. The spectrum analysis of S2B and S2C can be found in Appendix A.12 and A.13. As can be seen from Map 1, the measurement location S2 is in close proximity to the lakefront. From this, it is expected that the noise levels i j present at this location will be due largely to wave noise and wiLL be strongly dependent on the wind speed. The results j tabulated in Table XII tend to support this conclusion. The statistical descriptors, L 10' '50' '90 8"d 'eq are high for the measurement times with strong winds and relatively low for f b. times with low wind speeds. The octave band noise levels as I well as the frequency spectra indicate that there are no pure i tones and that the dominant power plant frequencies are not { present. i

The i spectrum analysis (see Appendix A) shows no dominant plant frequencies and the octave band noise levels (see Table XII) show no pure tones in the frequency ranges of interest (i.e. 125 and 1000 He octave bands). This suggests that the plant provides a negligible contribution to the noise at the Locust Point Cemetery. 4.2.2b Nearest Resident, S5 Table XIII contains all of the relevant information concerning the measurements taken at location 55. The table lists an identification

Typical frequency spectra can be found in Appendix A.18 through A.23. Because of the proximity of this location to the lakefront, the measured noise levels will exhibit a noticeable dependence on wind speed. This expectation is supported by the information contained in Table 10' 50' '90 and L are XIII. The statistical descriptors, L eq strongly dependent on wind speed. High wind speeds (approximately 12-20 mph) exhibit L values in the range of 55 to 65 dBA. Lower wind speeds (between 8-12 mph) provide p L values between 50 and 55 dBA. Calm wind speeds (0-8 mph) eq exhibit a range of 45 to 50 dBA. This suggests that wind and wave noise account for the major portion of the measured noise.h Acoustic TECHNOLOGY IN w
b levels. The octave band noise levels in Table XIII show no presence of pure tones which may be annoying to the residents. The frequency spectra (see Appendix A.18 thru A.23) show that the noise measured at SS exhibits a slight dependence on the power plant. The 120 Hz and 967.5 Hz frequencies exhibit small constant spikes (about 40 and 30 dB respectively) in all of the spectra. The annoyance potential of these pure tones is dependent upon the background noise levels. If the background noise levels are high, as with high winds, it is impossible to notice the plant noise. If the background noise levels are low, the plant noise can be observed in the linear frequency spectra. However, the human ear does not respond to noise in a linear fashion. Figure 2 shows three weighting scales which are used by acoustic engineers. The A scale was derived to simulate the frequency response of the human ear. This figure reveals that the human ear deemphasizes low frequencies (below 1000 Hz) and slightly favors frequencies between 1000 and 5000 Hz. This leads to the conclusion that, even with low ambient noise levels, the plant noise will have no annoyance effect on the residents at SS. 4.2.2c Nearest Wildlife Refuge, S1 The results of the measurements performed at the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge are contained in Table XIV.

4 octave band breakdown at L and L,q noise levels, plus,the 90 every measurement time. Appendix A.24 through A.29 contain frequency spectra for select measurement times and conditions. The measurement point S1, as with S S, exhibits noise levels which are dependent on prevailing wind and wave conditions. As before, high win'd speeds (12-20 mph) produce L values in the 54-70 dBA range. Lower speeds (7-12 mph) provide L eq values in the range of 50-55 dBA. Very low wind speeds (0-7 mph) exhibit a range of 45-50 dBA as the L noise level. The i octave band frequency breakdown shows no unusual or noticeable pure tones. Lastly, the frequency spectra in Appendix A indicate small noise spikes of 45 and 30 d8 at 120 and 967.5 Hz respectively. As at S S, these spikes are relatively j' constant over the cross section of conditions and times, and i become more or less potentially audible depending upon background noise levels.
- Hence, the power plant characteristic frequencies will be noticeable in the linear spectrum o n t, y under low background noise conditions.
As was previously discussed, the response of the human ear to noise i composed of different frequencies is not linear. The A weighting scale (shown in Figure 2) closely simulates the j actual human ear response. Because of the deemphasis of low frequencies (less than 1000 Hz), the plant noise will not be i noticeable to humans at the nearest wildlife refuge. l l l,e /@ Accusuc TECHNOLOGY INC. se i l L
4.3 Measured Operational h N ise Level contour Map 50 The operational measurement noise data for the Davis-Besse i Nuclear Power Station was used to estimate an A-weighted L 50 noise level contour map (see Map 2). The contour lines were estimated by the ATI sound propagation computer model. The i compute-model takes into account sound propagation loss factors. These factors are: l l 1. Atmospheric Absorption { 2. Spherical Wave Divergence 3. Ground Condition Effects t 4. Local Barrier Effects, and I j 5. Wind Effects. i To predict the sound contours, yearly average meteorological i data (i.e. temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and wind j -- direction) were used. All ground conditions and local topographical features were obtained from direct readings of the appropriate USGS maps. Actual measurement noise levels i and locations were used by the computer model to extrapolate i the measured noise levels to encompass the entire vicinity of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The results of this analysis provided the 40, 50, 60 and 70 dBA sound contours and these contours were then drawn on a site map. N l:Jj AccusTic TECHNOLOGY INC. w
t 5.0 IMPACT ANALYSIS Zn order to be able to objectively judge the operational I iOpact. of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station on the environmental noise conditions, -two scales need to be 1 employed. One scale converts the equivalent sound levels to an equivalent day-night sound level (L ch ads (L,q) DN a. weighting for the more sensitive evening hours. The EPA uses this sound level (i.e. L " 9 "9 DN i absolute noise in a residential community. EPA guidelines require that the L a g un c mmun y e ess than 55 DN dBA. Comparing the preoperational to operational noise levels (as Stevens, Rosenblith and Bolt suggest) provides another I scale against which the impact of the power plant can be judged. If measured noise levels exhibit no appreciable increase due to the full load operation of the station, then i it can be concluded that ambient noise is masking the noise i produced by the operation of the plant. Finally, the HUD I j criteria of classifying noise environments as " acceptable", "normally acceptable", "normally unacceptable", or " unacceptable" will be considered [8, 9, 10]. i f 5.1 Carroll Township School, S3 j The impact of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station at the l nearest school (i.e. S3) was predicted to be negligible. The i 1 k Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC. 49 i l
recorded measurements performed at this location confirmed this fact. None of the measur d L values, including those taken with extremely high winds, exceeded 48 dBA. This converts to an L ng alm dnds, the L was DN eq recorded as 36 dBA which is equivalent to an L sound level DN of 42 dBA. Obviously, the operation of the power plant does not effect the noise levels at this sensitive location.
- Also, the octave band sound levels indicate the lack of pure tones caused by the station near the school.
The measured noise levels at S3 are considered "normally acceptable" by HUD i criteria. 5.2 Locust Point Cemetery, M The impact of the plant operation at the nearest cemetery can 1 best be judged by comparing the preoperational survey results directly to the operational measurements. P4 and S4 are measurement points which are the same location tested before the plant started full load operation and after full load operation began. The preoperational survey results provide L sound levels in the 35-46 dBA range. Only unoer extremely 50 windy conditions (about 20 moh wind speeds) did operational survey results exceed this range. Aside from this extremely high wind speed, the measured L sound levels are between 40 and 48 dBA. These values correspond to L sound levels of 46 DN and 54 dBA respe:tively, both of which lie within the EPA requirements. The octave band analysis suggests inat there h@9 Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC.
di. are no pure tones present at the cemetery. The noise measurements at S4 are classified as "normally acceptable" by HUD criteria. 5.3 Magee State Marsh, M The Magee State Marsh is located very close to the shore of Lake Erie. Because of this closo proximity to the lakefront, it can be expected that measured noise levels will be high due to wind and wave noise. As Table XII indicates, the measured noise levels at S2 are rather high (L values range from H dn to 64 dBA) and do illustrate a correspondence with wind speed, (i.e. the higher the wind speed the higher the measured noise levels). Also, the predictive techniques employed in Chapter 3.0 suggest that S2 is too far from the power plant to notice any effect from plant operation. This is confirmed by examining the frequency spectrum plots A.12 and A.13. None of the dominant plant frequencies are present, implying no plant impact. Hence, the high noise levels measured at S2 are due to conditions which existed before the plant began operations (i.e. ambient conditions). Because of this, the high L DN values are nat attributable to plant noise. The HUD criteria classify the measured noise levels at S2 as "normally a c c e p t a b l e . I , ) Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC.
5.6 ottawa National Wildlife Refuge, S1_ As with S2, the Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge is very close to the shore of Lake Erie. This suggests that measured noise levels will be correlated to the wind speed. This is illustrated to be t:.e case as is shown in Table XIV and was discussed in Section 4.2.2c. Also, since preoperational survey locotion P1 corresponds to operational survey location 51, a direct comparison can be made. All of the preoperational survey measurements were performed when the recorded wind speeds were less than 10 mph. The recorded L 50 noise levels with these weather conditions were between 48 and 56 dBA. The L perational survey results for wind speeds 50 less than 10 mph all lie between 45 and 54 dBA. This suggests that the full load operation of the power station has had no effect on the noise conditions at the Ottawa Wildlife Refuge. For windspeeds less than 10 mph, the measured L noise levels range from 46 to 54 dBA. These equivalent noise levels correspond to L n ise levels f 52 and 60 dBA respectively. DN Once again, these equivalent day-night noise levels are not t very informative because preoperational L DN the same range. The measured operational frequency spectrum plots for location S1 (see Appendix A.24 through A.29) ao show slight indications of the presence of the dominant power station frequencies. Because of the response of the human ear to noise composed of different frequencies, however, it will f not be a source of annoyance. Another means to judge the f degree of impact of these dominant plant frequencies is to observe the octave band noise levels. Table XIV shows no ~29-Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC. ed i
i presence of noticeable increases in either of the octave bands of interest (i.e. 125 and 1000 Hz frequency bands).
- Hence, the plant is a negligible contributor to the noise levels measured at the nearest wildlife refuge.
The noise measurements at S1 are considered to be '*no rma ll y acceptable" by HUD noise level criteria. J 5.5 Nearest Resident, SS The nearest resident to the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station is located 2,900 feet due north of the transformer, about 200 feet from the shore of Lake Erie. This location suggests, as i before, that measured noise levels will be strongly dependent on wind and wave noise. The preoperational survey location P3, though further from the plant site than SS, exhibits the same preoperational noise characteristics as SS. This comparison is valid because both locations are within very 1 ) close proximity to the lakefront and they are surrounded by similar terrain with similar noise sources. The preoperational survey L n ise levet.s at P3 ranged from 50 to 50 64 dBA for wind speeds between 0 and 10 mph. The operational survey results show L n ise levels which range from 51 to 64 50 dBA for wind speeds ranging from 0 to 20 mph. This suggests 1 that the operation of the plant has had no effect on measured noise levels. The equivalent noise levels (L ) f r the eo operational survey under weather conditions where the wind speeds did not exceed 10 mph range from 44 to 55 dBA.

This suggests that the plant is not the cause of the recorded high L noise levels. The DN frequency spectrum plots shown in Appendix A.18 thru A.23 exhibit. slight dependence on the power plant dominant frequencies. This plant noise will not be an annoyance to humans because of the nonlinear response of the human ear to 1 noise composed of different frequencies. Also, the extent of the measured dependence can be judged by observing the s relative octave band frequency noise levels in the frequency ranges of interest (namely, the 125 and 1000 Hz frequency bands). Table XIII shows no ob.-ious impact in either of the two ranges of interest leading tu the conclusion that there is no impact of full load operation of the power station at the nearest resident. The noise levels measured at S5 are j classified as "normally acceptable" by HUD criteria. Finally, it is worth mentioning the noise complaint history of the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. Since the start of full load operation of the power station, there have been no noise related complaints. This
- suggests, as does this a na lys i s, that the operation o# the Davis-Besse Station has had no environmental noise impact in the vicinity of the power station.

6.0 CONCLUSION
S AND RECOMMENDATIONS The preceding analysis of the environmental noise conditions at the Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station considered the preoperational noise levels previously measured, a prediction of the probable plant noise sources, an estimate of the likely i impact of the noise generating equipment on ambient noise levels, the m e a s u r e rc e n t of existing full load operational noise levels and a comparison of these full load noise levels to preoperational levels and the absolute standards set by the EPA. Based on this analysis, the following conclusions and recommendations are made: 1. The major preoperational noise sources included wind and wave noise. These noise sources were especially noticeable at or near the lakefront. 2. The noise levels at S 3, the closest school to the power plant, are low and show no signs of impact i caused by the operation of the plant, as predicted. i 3. The nearest cemetery to the power
- plant, S4, exhibits somewhat higher noise levels.
These levels ( are a result of wind, wave and traffic noise and i negligibly due to plant noise. This conclusion is based on the comparison of preoperational to full i Load operational noise levels. This comparison i ! Qi> ACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGY IN )
_i__ shows that measured operational levels are no higher than preoperational levels. This conclusion was 4 also suggested by the predictive methods. i 4. Location S 2, the Magee State Marsh, has noise levels i I as predicted. The closeness of_this location to the lakefront suggests that the high measured noise levels are caused by wind and wave noise. Also, the large distance between S2 and the power plant makes it impossible for the plant to be contributing to existing noise levels. This observation is supported by the lack of dominant plant frequencies in the noise composition at S2. 5. The measured noise levels at the closest wildlife l refuge, S1, are high. The close proximity of this i location to the lakefront suggests that wind and wave noise are the major contributors to these l Levels. The comparison of preoperational noise levets to full load noise levels shows that the plant operation has had little effect on the noise levels at S1. The frequency spectra indicate the slight presence of plant noise, but taking into 1 account the octave band analysis and allowing for i the frequency response of the human ear to noise shows that the effect is, in fact, negligible. ) ]

~ 6. The nearest resident to the power plant, SS, has high measured operational noise levels. Again, the close location of this resident to the lakefront leads to the expectation that wind and wave noise are the key noise sources. The comparison of preoperational to' operational noise levels shows that the plant is not effecting existing noise levels. The frequency spectra, octave band analysis and the known response of the human ear support this Concl.usion. i 1 I i ) l , ) ( Acoustic TECHNOLOGY INC.
