Five Noise Monitoring Station across Chennai – Under the Control of CPCB
During the endeavor of receiving wide-ranging info on noise pollution, the city will be receiving five extra synchronized noise monitoring stations.
The apparatus will be soon installed at Velachery, Anna
Nagar, Mint and two other main parts of the city.
These two spots are yet to decide and most probably it will
be situating at the Corporation office buildings, stated a senior official of
the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB).
These five
noise monitoring stations will be the fragment of the National Ambient Noise
Monitoring Network, framing up by the CPCB. In turn CPCB has been internally in
link with several State pollution control boards.
This
network will be framed with the premise of cost-sharing foundation. A recent
report released by the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board sources revealed
that, about Rs.34 lakh has been already given by them in order to import the
apparatus.
This proposal has been agreed by many experts and particularly got a welcome nod from Rajesh Rangarajan, an environmental expert and researcher. Moreover, the gained info will be in no way intended to drive choices and improvements in the arena.
