(A) Levels specified in this section shall be determined by the general nature of the affected district, and not the nature of the specific receiving property upon which the sound is measured. For example, if an affected district is primarily commercial in nature, the limits prescribed in the section for commercial properties are applicable, even if the particular parcel upon which the sound is measured is residential in nature.
(B) No person shall cause, suffer, allow, or permit the operation of any source of sound on any source property listed in such a manner as to create a sound level that equals or exceeds the sound level limits set forth in Tables I or II below when measured at or within the real property line of any of the receiving properties listed in Tables I or II except as specifically permitted in this chapter.
