Victorville's Noise Control ordinance, Chapter 13.01, caps sound at the property line: 75 dB(A) anytime in industrial zones, 70 dB(A) anytime in commercial zones, and 65 dB(A) daytime dropping to 55 dB(A) overnight in residential zones. A data center's cooling and generators must comply.
Chapter 13.01 of the Victorville Municipal Code sets base ambient noise limits by zone under Section 13.01.040: all industrial zones 75 dB(A) anytime, all commercial zones 70 dB(A) anytime, and residential zones 65 dB(A) from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and 55 dB(A) from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. Section 13.01.030 measures exterior noise at any point on the property line. Section 13.01.050 bars exceeding those limits by 5 dB(A) for thirty minutes an hour, scaling down to 20 dB(A) for any period. Airport operations at Southern California Logistics Airport are exempt under Section 13.01.060.
Noise over the Chapter 13.01 limits is a civil penalty under Section 13.01.070, enforceable by Code Compliance, and may be charged as an infraction; a permitted data center also risks breaching its Conditional Use Permit noise conditions.
