SnowGlobe Festival: A Proactive Approach to Festival Noise

The City of South Lake Tahoe California has been home to the SnowGlobe Festival, a premier electronic dance music festival taking place leading up to New Year’s Day, for nearly a decade. The city takes its relationship with its residents and neighbors seriously. Rental equipment from The Modal Shop helped create a unique and proactive approach to festival noise.

Modal U: Noise Dosimetry Terminology

A lot of terminology related to noise dosimetry and protecting employees’ hearing gets tossed around. Confused by dose? Mystified by sound exposure level or exchange rate? Check out the Noise Dosimetry Glossary from Larson Davis. The new Spartan Wireless Noise Dosimeter Model 730 makes it easy to get the data you need to determine if your site complies with relevant noise dose standards and limits. The Modal Shop offers single dosimeters and multi-packs for rent to help you measure the noise dose experienced by your employees.
