Tania and Cheri, this is the presentation I already sent to you for Judy Hovjacky for April 12 Planning
Commission meeting. If you do this in screen show mode, you can launch the video on the last page.
This is for presentation 7.
Please let me know if this is the way you want to do this. Again, you must tolerate an ad for 5 seconds
and then you can skip it.
Thank you very much.

Hi, folks. I am sending you this presentation first. I need to know how you want to address this. There
is a link on page 5, the last page, to a video from Lemoore. If you use slide show mode, that makes the
link active (unfortunately there is a 5 second ad I can't get rid of but you can skip after 5 seconds.
How do you want to do this? Do you want me to give you the PDF file and you just put the You Tube link
somewhere you can access it?
Let me know. Thanks! I will get you the order of the speakers tonight and their presentations.

Noise Impacts at Coral
Mountain

EIR States there will be no adverse noise
impact
• The noise engineer explained that based on Federal Highway
Administration guidance and studies, noise bouncing off a hard
surface can cause noise increases of no more than 1-2 dBA, which is
not perceptible to the human ear. Given the distance between the
Wave Basin and Coral Mountain (approximately 650 feet), the soft
surfaces over that distance that absorb sound, and the maximum,
worst -case noise levels generated at the Wave Basin (75.7 dBA), the
Wave Basin will not cause significant noise levels or noise impacts at
Coral Mountain or in the surrounding communities.

Two Important Noise Measurements
• The dBA unit A -weighted sound level does not measure low
frequencies. In this setting, the meter primarily measures in the 500
to 10,000 Hz range.
• The dBC unit C-weighted sound level does not discriminate against
low frequencies and measures uniformly over the frequency range of
30 to 10,000 Hz. This weighting scale is useful for monitoring sources
such as engines and machinery. dBC frequencies can travel further
and are harder to mitigate.

Sounds from Lemoore — especially listen for the
humming — this is what everyone will hear 7AM to
10PM or longer, 365 days are year. And it is right
next to Coral Mountain so it will echo.
