This Technical Note uses current information gathered from manufacturers and suppliers of equipment, together with limited noise measurements obtained from machinery studies, to assess the noise exposure levels of forest operations. From evaluation of these data, guidance is given on the selection of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Loud impact or explosive noises, for example those from rifles, are not covered.
