4/1/2009 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis report describes an investigation by NIOSH researchers to quantify sound levels and to determine the amount of sound reduction provided by engineering noise controls installed in a talc processing plant.
-
1/1/2007 - Peer reviewed journal articlesNoise surveys were conducted in eight coal preparation plants. Results indicate that only workers who routinely spend a significant portion of their shift in the plants (away from the control rooms) are susceptible to overexposure from noise.
