noise limits
Decibel boundary rules
Noise limits are regulations governing the maximum acceptable sound levels in a given context.
Most commonly refers to local ordinances restricting loud activities during certain hours: The city's noise limits prohibit construction before 7 a.m.
Also applies to industrial standards, vehicle specifications, and environmental regulations: The new muffler keeps the motorcycle within legal noise limits.
