AWESC-5 Page 3 September 18, 2012 <br /> Mr. Ikeda called Mr. Keleikini back to the table to ask him about PGV's decibel range. <br /> Mr. Keleikini stated that it usually averages around 55 decibels during the day and night, but the <br /> background noise at night is generally higher, which is mostly due to the coqui frogs. It is above <br /> 60 decibels during drilling. Mr. Ikeda asked what 55 decibels mean. Mr. Keleikini answered <br /> that if you are within arms reach of someone and you need to raise your voice so that the other <br /> person can hear, then that is around 60-65 decibels. Mr. Ikeda also wanted to know the height of <br /> the drilling rig. Mr. Keleikini replied that it is 250-feet high. <br /> Your Committee on Agriculture, Water and Energy Sustainability is in accord with the purpose <br /> and intent of Bill No. 292, and recommends its passage on first reading. <br /> dwe <br /> AYES NOES A&E EX Respectfully submitted, <br /> BLAS X <br /> FORD x COMMITTEE ON AGRICULTURE, WATER <br /> HOFFMANN x AND ENERGY SUSTAINABILITY <br /> IKEDA X _ <br /> ONISHI ��' <br /> PILAGO X X a <br /> SMART x J YOS- V •TO, CHAIR <br /> YAGONG x AWESC REPORT NO. 5 <br /> YOSHIMOTO x ADOPTED: OCT 0 3 2012 <br />
