Environmental noise and vibration emissions impact human health and social surroundings

There is a strong link between environmental noise and vibration emissions and environmental values which refer to a beneficial use, or an ecosystem health condition. To reduce environmental noise and vibration emissions to acceptable levels is essential to minimise their impacts on human health and social surroundings, and consequently maintain environmental values.
