S0metimes oak cuts like butter! Thanks to my Dad for showing me the secret...
I will be doing some research this week related to inspecting internal combustion engines (outboard motors, ATV's, snowmobiles) for decibel levels.
Here are some questions I have:
What will be the protocol for inspecting snowmobiles and ATV's?
Why do snowmobiles and ATV's have different maximum allowable decibel levels? How were these levels chosen?
If the sound tests are done when the vehicles are stationary, how does that relate to actual field conditions?
Were silent sports practitioners included in any of the discussions of decibel levels or inspection protocols?
What will be the consequences of violating sound levels? (confiscation and a 5000 fine, I hope!)
What is the relationship between speed and noise? Will the DNR be monitoring speed as well as static noise? (not to mention alcohol use?)
questions? Answers? Send them to quietnorth...see my next posts for interesting reading related to these questions...
