Abstract
This guidance manual for state and local police officers and law enforcement personnel was prepared for the Office of Noise Abatement and Control of the United States Environmental Protection Agency as part of its mandate under the Noise Control Act. The purpose of the manual is to provide law enforcement personnel with the necessary technical skills to enforce State and Local Motor Vehicle Noise Laws. The proper enforcement of motor vehicle noise violations requires the noise enforcement officer to develop specific technical skills, both in the use of noise measuring equipment as well as in the application of police practice to noise enforcement. This manual has been written for use both by the police officer. Each section of the manual corresponds to the modules of the Police Noise Enforcement Program as developed by the International Brotherhood of Police Officers. An Instructor's guide is provided for each module.
