Abstract:

Noise is a major environmental issue, particularly in urban areas, affecting a large number of people. To date, most assessments of the problem of environmental noise have been based on the annoyance it causes to humans, or the extent to which it disturbs various human activities. Assessment of health outcomes potentially related to noise exposure has so far been limited. However, the important outcomes related to environmental noise include cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment, sleep disturbance, tinnitus, annoyance, etc. Considering all these aspects, an assessment has been conducted through this study for integrating the present scenario of environmental status after closure of FCI, Sindri Unit in the area.
