Many jurisdictions treat wind farms as they do any other industrial noise source. Some jurisdictions have noise regulations/guidelines/criteria specific to wind farms. Requirements for wind turbine noise vary in strictness from country to country. The strictest noise requirements are found in Sweden, Germany, Finland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and parts of Australia. Several countries internationally have penalties for tonal, impulsive, and low frequency noise. New Zealand, Finland and parts of Australia (Tasmania and Victoria) are found to be the only regions to include a penalty for amplitude modulation of wind turbine noise. Some jurisdictions indicate a particular acoustical modelling method (e.g. international or national standard or other technical procedure) should be used for wind farm noise assessment. Many do not specify or require a particular modelling method}, number={3}, journal={Canadian Acoustics}, author={Du, Sam and Lightstone, Al D. and Doran, Joseph}, year={2017}, month={Aug.}, pages={196–197} }
