What this bill would do
This bill, titled the Noise Oversight and Information for Safe Environments Act, seeks to amend the Noise Control Act of 1972. The primary purpose is to establish a specific deadline for reviewing noise criteria. It requires the Administrator to review published or revised criteria no later than 2 years after the act is passed. Following that initial review, the Administrator must conduct reviews at least once every 10 years. These reviews are intended to determine if it is necessary to revise or supplement existing noise criteria.
