German term

Lärmempfindlichkeitsstufe

German to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering Environmental
This is taken from a real estate analysis of property in Switzerland.
I know what it means, but is there a generally used term for "noise sensitivity level" with respect to *zoning regulations* as opposed to hearing aids?
Thanks, Kevin

noise level

This seems to be what is used here in the USA.

They also use noise rating, sound level, etc.

Hope this helps, cause it does not seem to be a defined (and used) standard term here in the USA.
