Meeting State and County Sound Standards
gout sigma—
Pat:
To meet the County's sound standards we have - Sound Restrictions in Our Contract As Follows:
F. Music and Sound
Music either by Disc Jockey (DJ) or Live Band must meet county code by keeping sound decibel
levels inside the Carriage House to less than 86, and inside the Barn less than 81. This would
make the sound decibel levels at the property fence line to less than 50 decibels. If music exceeds
these county codes the electric breakers will automatically turn off until the proper levels are reached.
* Please give your DJ or Band a copy of Exhibit J.
Exhibit J
Noise Compliance for Garfield County's Land Use Resolution Code
Article 7-301 B.2
Carriage House -These noise levels would be expected to occur when the measured noise level 25 feet from the
stage near the center of the patio support beam is 86 dBA in order to get a 50 dBA along the property line.
Red Barn Upstairs -These noise levels would be expected to occur when the indoor measured noise level 30 feet
from the speakers is 81 dBA. Note that for these measurements the barn door on the first floor is open.
Monitoring and Controlling Sound Standards:
To monitor the sound we have Sound Decibel Meters at 25 feet in the Carriage House and 30 Feet at the Red Barn.
These meters have been calibrated by the Jeff Cernan, Sound Engineer, to properly measure the decibel level.
These are REED R8050 - IEC 61672-1 Class 2 meters. We will be mounting these meters on center post of the
Carriage House when be used at 25' and the Red Barn when being used at 30'. A additional meter will be used at
scheduled intervals by our staff at the fence line of the property to make sure we are in compliance at 50 decibels or
less levels

The program for controlling the sound as stated above was suggested and will be implemented per the Sound Engineer's
instructions.
