Mayorista de Riobamba to identify and determine the afTctation extent to businessmen

Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays according to the parameters described in the book
VI, Annex 5 of the Environmental Legislation of Ecuador.
""The noise values were beyond the 60 dB (A) permitted by the Actual National Norm.
The zone 4 of vehicle mobility recorded 60.8 dB (A); the office zone 7 60,3 dB (A).
From the results, itwas determined that in the place there is noise contamination with
an average of 60, 6 dB (A) causing stress, migraine, audition and psychological
problems.
Bacause of the above, control measures are proposed at the vehicle entrance and exit
with the help of the Transit Commission, by placing public advertisements of
information and regulations, programming environmental education courses and
adopting correction measures sch as acoustic barriers, glass and wood suppors; in
offices, by placing auditions isolators and providing the adequate infrastructure
