[quote=Anonymous]My neighbors new generator registered 80db at my bedroom window last night.  He could easily relocate it.  He has it positioned between our two house on a concret pad.  When I politely asked him about simply moving the generator 10 feet to the right, so that it could sit in his back yard on the grass, he was extremely hostile and pretty much to me to go "F" myself. I just don't get.

It seems like dc has a noise control law, I posted it below.  Can't those that are offended just simply call the cops and ask for the law to be applied?

2801?MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT
 
2801.1?Noise resulting from mechanical equipment shall not exceed the maximum noise levels contained in this section.
 
2801.2?Noise resulting from the use or operation of any air-conditioning, refrigerator, heat pump, fan, swimming pool equipment, or other mechanical equipment, regardless of location, shall be prohibited in excess of sixty (60) dB(A) when measured at the property line or as close to the property line as practical if there is an obstruction.
 
?SOURCE: Section 5 of the District of Columbia Noise Control Act of 1977, D.C. Law 2-53, 24 DCR 5293, 5309 (December 30, 1977).
