Strategic noise maps — National Routes — Type C map (night) in Côte d’Or — 2nd deadline 2012-2017

The European Directive 2002/49/EC on the assessment and management of environmental noise sets out a common approach for all Member States of the European Union to avoid, prevent or reduce as a matter of priority the harmful effects of exposure to environmental noise. It was transposed into French law by order, ratified by the law of 26 October 2005 and is now included in the Environmental Code. This approach is based on a mapping of noise exposure, population information and the implementation of the Environmental Noise Prevention Plan (PPBE) at local level. Articles L572-1 to L572-11 and R572-1 to R572-11 of the Environmental Code define the competent authorities for issuing noise maps and environmental noise prevention plans. As regards the major road and rail infrastructure of the national network, noise maps and PPBEs are drawn up by the Prefect, in accordance with the conditions specified in the circular of 7 June 2007 on the preparation of noise maps and plans for the prevention of environmental noise and by the instruction of 23 July 2008. In the light of the circular of 7 June 2007 on the development of noise maps and plans for the prevention of noise in the environment, noise maps are to be drawn up for large infrastructure and in large agglomerations. This includes: — roadways used by more than 8200 vehicles/d — railway tracks with more than 82 train crossings/d — agglomerations with a population of more than 100 000 __Origin__ The rules for measuring noise pollution are defined in the Prefectural Decree No 398 of 25 September 2012. Noise maps are drawn up, with harmonised indicators Lden (level day evening night) describing the average daily noise intake and Ln (level night) describing the average nighttime noise dose. Noise levels are evaluated using numerical models incorporating the main parameters that influence noise and its propagation. __Partner organisations__ DDT Côte-d'Or __Links annexes__ * [XML metadata view](http://ogc.geo-ide.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/csw/all-dataset?REQUEST=GetRecordById&SERVICE=CSW&VERSION=2.0.2&RESULTTYPE=results&elementSetName=full&TYPENAMES=gmd:MD_Metadata&OUTPUTSCHEMA=http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd&ID=fr-120066022-jdd-c9f062c2-d325-4742-9f53-4f01a17f4ba7) [See this page on geo.data.gouv.fr](https://geo.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/16a48eef1e7df1742ef8bb29a070aecb67837e20)
