Summary of Consultation Questions
Q3.1: Are you content with this general approach to the mapping for roads, rail, air and agglomerations?
Q3.2: Do you agree with the proposed trigger for the review of noise maps outside the five year cycle?
Q3.3: Do you believe that it would be possible to establish a level change in decibels at which a change could be viewed as significant. If so what should that level be?
Q3.4: Do you agree with the proposal to make noise mapping data available to the public in the form of tabulated numerical data and maps showing noise contours?
Q3.5: Do you agree with the proposal to make noise mapping data available to the public through the Scottish Executive website and CD-ROMs?
Q4.1 Do you agree with the proposed approach? If not, what alternative approach would you propose?
Q4.2: Do you agree with the proposed generic approach towards developing action plans to manage noise?

Q4.4: Do you agree with the proposed trigger for the review of action plans?
Q5.1: Do you agree with the proposed definition of international and national major roads?
Q5.2: Do you agree with the proposed definition of the Primary Route Network (PRN) as the major regional roads?
Q5.3: Can you propose an alternative solution to the problem of the definition of regional roads? If so, how could it be applied across Scotland on a consistent basis?
Q5.4: Do you agree with the use of the adapted version of 'CRTN' for calculating road traffic noise until the harmonised method is adopted by the Commission?
Q5.5: Do you agree with the proposal that Scottish Executive officials produce the road traffic noise maps (through the letting of contracts) on the Scottish Ministers behalf?
Q5.6: Would you support the Scottish Ministers entering into agreements with Local roads authorities for the production of road traffic noise maps at some point in the future?
Q5.7: Do you agree with the proposed list of data that will be needed to produce the maps and their potential sources?
Q5.8: Do you agree with the proposed use of the WG-AEN Good Practice Guide Toolkits for the generation of any necessary missing data?
Q5.9: Do you agree with this proposed approach to drawing up road noise action plans?
Q5.10: Do you agree with the list of consultees to be stipulated in the regulations?
Q6.1: Do you agree with the use of 'CRN modified' for calculating noise from railways until the harmonised method is adopted by the Commission?
Q6.2: Do you agree with the proposal that Scottish Executive officials produce the rail noise maps on the Scottish Ministers behalf?
Q6.3: Would you support the Scottish Ministers entering into agreements with Local Authorities for the production of rail noise maps at some point in the future?
Q6.4: Do you agree with the proposed list of data that will be needed to produce the maps and their potential sources? 51
Q6.5: Do you agree with the proposed use of the WG-AEN Good Practice Guide Toolkits for the generation of any necessary missing data?
Q6.6: Do you agree with this proposed approach to drawing up a rail noise action plan?
Q6.7: Do you agree with the list of consultees to be stipulated in the regulations?
Q7.1: Do you agree with the use of ANCON2 or INM7.0 as the means of mapping airports until the harmonised method is adopted by the Commission, with the choice of which one to use being left to the organisation that will produce the maps?
Q7.2: Are you satisfied that airport operators should be the competent authority for the production of noise maps for airports?
Q7.3: Are you satisfied that airport operators should be the competent authorities for the production of action plans for relevant airports?

Q8.2: Do you agree with the above definitions of the noise sources to be considered?
Q8.3: Do you support the Scottish Executive’s alternative approach to defining industry or would you prefer to map those industries identified under the IPPC regime and the proposal to map industry in agglomerations in accordance with the WG-AEN GPG?
Q8.4: Do you agree with this approach to defining ports to be mapped under the END?
Q8.5: Are you satisfied with this approach to designate competent authorities and produce noise maps for agglomerations?
Q8.6: Would you support the Scottish Ministers entering into agreements with Local Authorities for the production of noise maps for agglomerations at some point in the future?
Q8.7: Do you agree with the Scottish Ministers being designated the competent authority for developing noise action plans for agglomerations?
Q8.8: Would you support the Scottish Ministers entering into agreements with Local Authorities for the production of noise maps for agglomerations at some point in the future? If so, how would you solve the problem of selecting a lead authority from a number represented in an agglomeration?
Q8.9: Do you agree with the list of consultees to be stipulated in the regulations?
Q8.10: Do you agree with the proposals to handle overlapping action plans?
