OR 97477 (503) 726.3753 September 29, 1988 Mr. Gerald T. Wilson, Senior Noise Analyst Noise Pollution Control Department of Environmental Quality 811 S. W. 6th Ave. Portland, OR 97204-1334 '* Dear Mr. Wilson: On September 28, 1988 I visited Dave's Market, 3444 Main Street, Sprin9fie1d and took noise level measurements. I used the equipment supplied to me by your office. I calibrated the meter as per your instructions both before and after the noise levels were measured. Mr. Bill McGlasson, owner of the market accompanied me while the noise levels were measured. Measurements were made at two separate locations. There are marked #1 and #2 on the enclosed map. I have enclosed a copy of an assessor's map of the subject property to assist you in understanding where the measurements were taken. Dave's Market is located on Tax Lot 800. The refrigeration unit is located at the rear of the store. There is a small mobile home located on Tax Lot 1000. A hedge separates the two properties. The mobile home is approximately 5 feet from the property line of Tax Lot 800. The first set of readings were taken standing just inside the property line of Tax Lot 1000 directly east of the refrigeration unit. The,noise level before the refrigeration unit was turned on measured consistently at 53. When trucks were going by along Main Street the level would sometimes go all the way up to 60. After the unit was turned on, the noise level was consistently measured at 72 with the noise of traffic on Main Street sometimes raising the level higher. The second set of noise levels was' taken from the northeast corner of Tax Lot 800, where it adjoins Tax Lot 700. This is located approximately 25-35 feet from the corner of the house on Tax Lot 700. The noise level at this point was measured at 53. When the refrigeration unit was turned on the level was measured at 58. I hope these readings will be helpful in determining if there is a violation. The owner of the market told me that while he is planning to enclose the equipment at some point in the future, he is not willing to consider abatement strategies at this time unless he is required to. A .'"l . . ~l. ''''1. I will enclose a copy of this letter with the equipment and if possible discuss it with Mr. Ruscigno when he picks it up. I will also mail a copy of the letter. Please call me with any questions or concerns. Sincerely, ~r~ Associate Planner/Code Enforcement cc: Joe Leahy, Assistant City Attorney Enc. Assessor's Map l HIGHWAY f"-#'/. ".
