gamesmonitor.org left an annotation (14 November 2008)

The 'noise monitor data' that they sent you isn't really data, it seems to be a graphic showing a crude chart of daily levels with no explanation of whether they are minimum, maximum or average.
There is no way of determining whether the information is genuine or accurate or how it was derived from the noise monitor records.
Even if it is accurate and showing average levels, particularly high levels for short periods would get hidden by the averaging.

See comments on noise levels on Page 7 of http://www.londonshealth.gov.uk/PDF/Olym... (Rapid Health Impact Assessment
of the Proposed London Olympic
Games and Their Legacy, London Health Commission & LDA 2004)

gamesmonitor.org left an annotation (14 November 2008)

Assuming the noise data illustrated in the graphs originates from a correctly sited monitor and is measured as specified in Hackney's Prior Consent, it's incomplete - there is no data for Saturday afternoons.
The soil processing has permission for 1300 - 1800 Saturdays and hourly data for this period was a requirement for the consent.

Also note that the prior consent expired on 11th Nov 08 and I understand it's been extended until 19th Dec 08.

It looks as if Hackney's Pollution Team may be turning a blind eye to the conditions of the consent.

Clearly, according to the data graphs the ODA supplied, the 57db limit was being repeatedly breached on weekday evenings.

And presumably they had received complaints from local residents. That they have extended the consent and not told them to move the machinery makes this look suspiciously like a rubber stamping exercise.
