Accurate Environmental Noise Assessments by Pro - Tec Geosystems Pte Ltd

In Singapore’s fast-growing construction and industrial environment, Baseline Noise Monitoring plays a critical role in project planning, environmental compliance, and community protection. Before any major construction, demolition, or industrial activity begins, developers must measure and document existing ambient noise levels. This essential step ensures compliance with NEA regulations, supports MOM’s Work place Safety and Health (Noise) requirements, and helps establish an accurate reference point for future assessments.

Pro-Tec Geosystems Pte Ltd provides professional Baseline Noise Monitoring Singapore services, offering reliable, compliant, and precise measurements through industry-certified equipment and experienced environmental specialists. Our data supports regulatory submissions, Noise Impact Assessments (NIA), and long-term project noise control planning.

What Is Baseline Noise Monitoring?

Baseline Noise Monitoring involves capturing current environmental noise condition sat or around a project site before construction or industrial operations begin. This forms the foundation for comparison throughout the project and is widely used in:
  • Environmental Baseline Noise Study
  • Baseline Noise Assessment
  • Construction Noise Baseline Study
  • Environmental Noise Measurement
  • Pre - Development Noise Monitoring
Using IEC 61672 Class 1 sound level meters, we record critical acoustic parameters such as:
  • LAeq – Equivalent continuous sound levels
  • Lmax / Lmin – Equivalent continuous sound levels
  • L10 / L90 – Statistical indices indicating ambient conditions
  • Noise Level Baseline Recording at 5-minute intervals
These readings ensure a clear understanding of existing noise levels before project commencement.

Why Baseline Noise Monitoring Is Essential

Regulatory Compliance

NEA’s Environmental Protection and Management (Control of Noise) Regulations specify permissible boundary noise limits for construction sites. Baseline data is required to ensure that future noise measurements can be compared against an approved reference point.

Accurate Noise Impact Assessment (NIA)

Baseline results are used for Noise Impact Assess ment (NIA) and Environmental Impact Assessments, helping developers plan effective mitigation strategies.

Community Protection

By documenting pre-construction noise levels, contractors demonstrate commitment to minimizing noise disturbances for residential, commercial, and sensitive receptors such as schools or hospitals.

Risk Management

Without baseline data, contractors may struggle to defend against noise complaints or regulatory actions. A documented Baseline Noise Survey reduces the risk of disputes and penalties.

Applications of Baseline Noise Monitoring in Singapore

Pro-Tec supports a wide range of infrastructure and development projects, offering:

  • Pre-Construction Noise Baseline Monitorin for piling, tunneling, excavation, and demolition projects
  • Environmental Monitoring Services Singapore for factories, shipyards, and industrial developments
  • Site Noise Level Benchmarking for consultants and developers
  • Acoustic Baseline Study for new residential or commercial development sites
Accurate baseline data supports long-term environmental sustainability and regulatory compliance.

Our Baseline Noise Monitoring Process

Site Assessment & Planning

We identify strategic monitoring points at site boundaries, nearby residences, or sensitive areas.

Equipment Deployment

Our team installs Class 1 sound level meters with acoustic calibrators and valid laboratory calibration certificates. Equipment is configured for continuous 24-hour or multi-day monitoring based on project needs.

Data Collection & Validation

We record LAeq, Lmax, L10, L90, and other parameters, ensuring data accuracy by filtering weather-related or abnormal disturbances.

Comprehensive Report Preparation

All results are compiled into a detailed, compliance-ready report, including:

  • Site layout, GPS map, and monitoring locations
  • Instrument specifications and calibration records
  • Graphs, tables, and statistical analysis of baseline noise levels
  • Comparison against NEA permissible limits
  • Recommendations for noise c ontrol measures
These reports fulfil requirements for consultants, NEA submissions, and project documentation.

Submission & Support

We assist with report submission and offer ongoing monitoring services throughout the construction phase, including real-time noise monitoring and boundary noise monitoring.
