Porto OBrowrk commofI6 June 9, 1994 Councilwoman Barb Kalligher City of Brooklyn Center 6301 Shingle Creek Parkway Brooklyn Center, MN 55430 Dear Councilwoman Kalligher: July 18, 1990 a letter was sent to Jerry Splinter outlining the steps we had taken and the calls we had made trying to get relief from the very noisey air conditioning unit at the south end of the Heritage Center. Brad Hoffman had a noise co nsultant measure the noise levels and he stated the level was in compliance with PCA standards. On June 27, 1991, after we contacted the PCA, a test was conducted by the PCA. The results indicated the noise far exceeds daytime and night time acceptable levels. In September of 1991 construction was started for a sound - proofing building. We aren't sure when construction was completed. In the summer of 1992 it was discovered that the air conditioner could not function properly in the sound - proofing enclosure. The solution was to violate the integrity of the sound - proofing by cutting a hole in the roof and opening the doors. This allows fresh air in and noise out. The PCA was called. We are not certain as to what transpired during the balance of the summer but nothing was dune. On June 7, 1993, the PCA again was contacted and conducted another test on June 23rd. Judith Berglund was sent a letter dated June 30, 1993, stating the air conditioner noise exceeded the state standard. The letter stated they had 30 days to respond with a written plan and estimated time frame for completion. On August 16th, we called Brian Timerson of the PCA to check on the status; he stated he had not received the report. He called Brad Hoffman who stated 6 uvaoacan i eaoaooti 6100 ommit Drivc North_ BrocklyrLCentcc. _' Iinnesoa_ 55430 Phone (610 560 -6829 June 9, 1994 Page Two he would fax to Brian the plan. The fax was not a plan but a statement indicating the City had hired a noise consultant (David Barslow) and would have a plan soon. On August 19th, Brian of the PCA, called us to inform us that there would be a plan and that Brad was to present the plan to the City Council Monday, August 23rd. On May 11, 1994, we called Brian at the PCA. He was amazed that the work hadn't been completed. On May 18th, Brian called us and stated that Judith Berglund said they hired a consultant, the consultant made recommendations and that they are seeking bids for the work. On June 1st, we called the consultant and he stated he made his recommendations in August of last year and has not been contacted since. It's four years since the first written official complaint but really five years of noise. Its been almost three years whereby the City, HRA and Heritage Center have know- ingly violated the Minnesota Pollution Control stating daytime and night time noise standards. Is this responsible behavior? To what standards are those responsible being held to? If the air conditioner were on my property and you were my next door neighbor- - would you allow me four years of disregarding the law? Thank you. Al Beisner MA CI david braslau associates, incorporated 1 31 3 5th street s.e. s suite 322 • Minneapolis, mn. 55414 • telephone: 61 2 -331 -4571 10 August 1993 MEMORANDUM TO:. Brad Hoffman FROM: David Braslau RE: Earle Brown Heritage Center - Chiller Noise Control Recommendations This memorandum describes the results of our noise measurement program and makes recommendations for controlling noise from the chiller to meet MPCA noise standards. Noise Measurement Results A detailed memorandum on the results is included as Attachment 1. The results are summarized below. 7th Floor Balconv The L50 sound level is approximately 4 dBA over the daytime standard for this location. No nighttime use of the balcony is anticipated. Unit 1003 The interior noise L50 was measured at 55 dBA although the open window generally provides 10 dBA reduction. Projecting the measured source noise to the building face at that location in- dicated an L50 65 dBA which agrees with the 10 dBA window reduction. There- fore, the exterior level is 65 dBA which is 15 dBA over the nighttime standard of 50 dBA. Noise Reduction Needed Based upon the noise measurements and calculations, a 15 dBA reduction in noise from the chiller is needed to meet the MPCA nighttime noise standards. Noise Control Recommendations The current chiller enclosure building can be used to provide the necessary sound reduction but will require some major changes. Currently, noise emanates from the louvers on either end and from the hole in the roof provided to relieve heat from the chiller. This is a major concern for any noise control design and has required some careful considerations not originally anticipated. Earle Brown Heritage Center - Chiller Noise Control Recommendations 10 August 1993 Page 2 The air flow of 88,000 cfm associated with the chiller must be accommodated by any silencing equipment. Moreover, it is recommended that this be handled without the need for additional air moving equipment in the enclosure. The recommended design is shown in EXHIBIT 1. The current louvers at either end of the peaked roof would have to be sealed with wood or.concrete block. The louver at the east end of the building should be sealed with concrete block. The doors would also have to remain closed during chiller operation. Noise reducing louvers (INTAKE AIR) would be placed along the bottom of the enclosure facing south. An area of 140 square feet is needed to handle the 88,000 cfm with minimal pressure drop (.25 inches) to permit natural draft ven- tilation of the enclosure. This could be accomplished with three units 8' wide by 5'10' high. The EXHAUST AIR louvers would be placed at the top of the peaked roof facing to the north. This area would also be 140 square feet thus providing for natural draft flow of the heated 88,000 cfm. The same louver configuration used on the side of the building would be used here. Since the louvers can weigh up to 10 psf, some strengthening of the roof may be needed. The roof louvers will lie at 45 degrees to the horizontal but a small lip on the louvers will minimize rainwater penetration. Some penetration of rainwater into the enclosure may occur but should be less than the current configura- tion. It is recommended that Industrial Acoustics Company (IAC) noise louvers ( Model LP) be used to ensure satisfactory performance. A brochure on these louvers is enclosed. The inside of the enclosure would be treated with industrial grade quilted fiberglass absorbers than can be attached directly to the concrete block sur- face of the enclosure. All available vertical surfaces inside the enclosure should be treated with this material. This will provide an additional 3 -4 dBA of attenuation and enhance the performance of the louvers. A brochure on Sound Seal absorbers is enclosed. Estimated Cost of Materials Larger louver elements have been recommended to minimize cost. A preliminary cost estimate has been provided by the Horner Company' for 8' x 5'10' units of $23 /square foot. With a required area of 2 x 140 sq ft, the total cost of the louvers would be 280 x$23 = $6,440. This is a significant savings over using smaller units. 1. The Horner Company 915 West Lake Street Minneapolis, MN 55408 824 -2654 ATTN: Tom Horner Earle Brown Heritage Center - Chiller Noise Control Recommendations 10 August 1993 Page 3 The quilted absorption is $2 /square foot. Assuming 400 square feet of this can be applied to the interior of the enclosure, the additional cost would be 500 x $2 = $1,000. other costs incurred would be the reconstruction of some parts of the enclosure and strengthening the roof to accommodate the louvers. An overall cost for the reconfiguration of the noise enclosure might be on the order of $10,000. From a dollar per dBA reduction cost, however ($666 /dBA), this cost is not unexpected since highway sound barriers can cost one -half this much per linear foot to achieve 15 dBA sound reduction. Expected Results With installation of the noise louvers and interior absorption, at least a 15 dBA reduction at the face of the adjacent residential high -rise is an- ticipated. The resulting treatment would be aesthetically pleasing while providing the needed sound reduction. By using natural draft flow (cool air in near the ground and warm air exhaust at the peak of the roof), no additional air moving equipment would appear to be needed. hoff an.mem ws84 ��. -. w .�. y K ` fJ �••. c v_ 4 � \ -� � / iti. ` •, ` _ �` \\ 1' `� '�\ . \ ` t ���� ,` ,, , . ��.� -- > >� ���� :,. - � _� �� ;, �_ �� �- �� �, - � - � '� to 0 Z 1- 41 J J C13 CD 7w� •�.tr- ..,- .- ,..- .�,l..,r -e.... � -.r, va+"nT^'^r rt.wr'1 -r....- v. ^n• -,-•.. r -e^r .. .. �t .. . -. ... - . ..

Here it is dissipated as thermal energy (see illustration below). The material's opposite side is faced with a nonwoven, porous, scrim fabric backing (NPS) for added mechanical strength, SOUND handling and to provide a stable base for applying adhesives. ` .

Double fiberglass thickness increases MEMBRANE FACE FIBERS low frequency absorption and provides significant transmission loss characteristics (see acoustical data). Depending on application requirements, the quilted absorbers can be faced on one or both sides. Available facings include the standard aluminum -vinyl coated fiberglass cloth (AVCFC), impervi- ous high - temperature silicone coated fiberglass cloth (SCFC) which BACKING FABRIC is quilted using Nomex stitching thread, or a non - maintenance, nonwoven, porous, scrim fabric (NPS). The three facing materials can be used individually or in combination on the same absorber so that special properties or economies are achieved. In architectural applications where aesthetics are important, the quilted absorbers can be furnished with decorative, woven fabric facings.

Readings were made between 10:00 am and 10:30 am. Reported weather conditions at MSP at 10:00 am were: Temperature 71 deg F Dew Point 56 deg F Relative Humidity 59% Wind East at 12 knots Pressure 30.20 steady 7th Floor Balcony /Adjacent Hiahrise Readings were taken at the edge of the balcony on the 7th floor of the ad- jacent highrise. The following readings were made over 1 minute time periods: Period 1 Period 2' LO1 65.5 dBA 65.5 dBA L10 65.0 64.5 L50 64.0 63.0 L90 63.5 62.5 Noise from the adjacent freeways was clearly audible although noise from the Chiller did appear to dominate. The uniformity of the readings showed that a steady state noise source did dominate the readings. Some noise from a power saw on an adjacent highrise was audible but varied and evidently did not sigificantly affect the overall sound levels. Taking the lowest observed level (63.0 dBA), this noise would exceed the MPCA daytime standards on the balcony (7 am - 10 pm) by 3 dBA. Unit 1003 /Adi acent Hiclhrise Readings were taken 3 from an open window in the living room of this unit. The meter was not in direct line of sight of the chiller structure in order to shield it from high frequency noise from the central fountain. However, it was felt that this would be more representative of the sound level within the room. The following readings were obtained over 1- minute time period: LO1 57.0 dBA ' L10 55.5 L50 55.0 L90 54.5 Noise Readings of Earle Brown Chiller 21 July 1993 Page 2 This showed less variation than on the balcony except for peak levels (L01). However, the 55 dBA level during nighttime hours would exceed the MPCA stan- dards within the unit by 5 dBA (and outside the unit by as much as 15 dBA). Source Measurements /Chiller A measurement was made 10 feet east of the chiller and 10 feet from the wall of the adjacent building (see Exhibit 1, Site A). A measurement was also taken 30 feet south and 30 feet east of the corner of the chiller structure (see Exhibit 1, Site B). A measurement was made inside of the structure be- tween the chiller and the exhaust louvers on the east side of the structure (see Exhibit 1, Site C). Results of these readings are presented below. Site A Site B Site C dBA 77 65.5 91.0 dBC 83 74 95.5 C- weighted readings were taken to confirm the frequency distribution at- tributed to the chiller unit. This will be covered in a subsequent memoran- dum. Measurments of the interior of the chiller enclosure were made. These are in- dicated in Exhibit 2. Preliminary Observations It would appear that at least a 5 dBA reduction will be needed in noise from the chiller. This can probably be provided only with intake and exhaust si- lencers, although some internal absorption may also be advisable. Total air flow needed to cool the unit is 88,000 cfm. Air from the lower exhaust louver may be recirculated into the second lower louver. This was originally boarded up but was opened once the hole in the roof was made. Location of intake and exhaust vents will be critical in term of the intake of cool air and reduction in noise level. earinois.mea ws84 earinols.wkl Is84 EARLE BROWN NOISE CONTROL STUDY - SUPPORTING CALCULATIONS A SOURCE SOURCE SOURCE OUTSIDE OUTSIDE OUTSIDE IAC MOD LP NEW LEVEL FREQ SPEC TRUM SITE C SITE B SITE A #1003 BALCONY 1 ST FLR NOISE RED @ 10' dB dB dB dB dB dB 63 108 81 55.5 67 10 71 125 112 85 59.5 71 11 74 250 116 89 63.5 75 14 75 500 115 88 62.5 74 15 73 1000 112 85 59.5 71 18 67 2000 110 83 57.5 69 15 68 4000 108 81 55.5 67 13 68 8000 104 77 51.5 63 12 65 Calc dBA 117.8 90.8 65.3 76.8 22.1 75.8 L50 @10' W /LOUVER MEAS dBA 91 65.5 77 65 64 Calc dBC 121.1 94.1 68.6 80.1 MEAS dBC 95.5 74 83 APPLICABLE MPCA L50 STANDARD 50 60 ESTIMATED LEVEL (theoretical) 64.5 ��� ° '> 65.2. ,,.. „_..64�;' 65 49.8 L50 AT BLDG FACE ,..........
