Camden County's Noise Control Ordinance caps continuous sound at a residential property line at 65 dBA (7 am-10 pm) and 50 dBA (10 pm-7 am), matching New Jersey's Noise Control Act, N.J.A.C. 7:29. Commercial and industrial receiving properties allow higher levels.
Article V and Table I set maximum permissible sound levels by receiving-property category. At a residential property line, continuous airborne sound may not exceed 65 dBA from 7:00 am to 10:00 pm or 50 dBA from 10:00 pm to 7:00 am; impulsive sound may not exceed an 80-decibel peak. Commercial receiving properties are capped at 65 dBA and industrial at 75 dBA at all times. Octave-band limits also apply. These figures mirror the statewide Noise Control Act standard the county adopted under N.J.A.C. 7:29.
Exceeding Table I limits is a violation; up to $3,000 per offense; measurements taken per N.J.A.C. 7:29B procedures.
