October 17, 1996DOROTHY HOFFMAN,Petitioner,v.- CITY OF COLUMBIA, ILLINOIS,
Respondent.- As the Board stated in adopting the noise regulations:
Rule 208(b) (901.107(b)) exempts warning and safety devices from the numericallimitations.- Not covered by the exception would be devices which may in
some ways be similar but which are use routinely in the course of operation such ascircuit breakers used for switching electrical power.- Therefore, back-up beepers should be exempted from the Board’s regulations, as
contemplated by Section 901.107(b).- The Board’s contrary finding seems to be an
infringement upon an area controlled by OSHA regulations. ... |
