Article 2, paragraph 6 of Italian law no. 447 of 26 October 1995 “Framework law on noise pollution” defines the “Technician Competent in Environmental Noise” as a figure qualified to perform measurement, control and remediation of noise pollution in external and residential environments. Ambiente Analisi performs noise measurements in accordance with D.M. (Ministerial Decree) 16 March 1998 and prepares the relative documentation required in the various specific environments.
Framework Law 447/95 stipulates that projects subject to an
environmental impact assessment must be prepared in consideration of the
need to protect communities affected by the noise pollution.
Where required by the Framework Law, those who own or hold the
rights to the project or works must prepare a noise impact document with
regard to the performance, modification or upgrading of the works
themselves.
In order to obtain the relative building permits, licenses or
authorisations to operate stipulated by the Framework Law, appropriate
documentation must be prepared beforehand hypothesising the
noise impact that the works will have on the surrounding environment. The objective is to establish whether it will be possible to comply with the legal limits with the addition of the new activity in the environmental context.
PROVISIONAL CALCULATION OF THE PASSIVE ACOUSTIC REQUIREMENTS FOR BUILDINGS

of the Council of Ministers) of 5 December 1997. In accordance with the
UNI EN ISO 12354:2017 and UNI EN ISO 717:2013 standards, the following
