observe local noise pollution regulations Explanation: Ernst lists "Lärmschutz" as "noise protection", but I do not quite agree with that. It almost sounds as if the noise has to be protected. But if you look at http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=noise prot... then you get almost the same sites as when you replace the "protectiobn" by "pollution". SO both terms are correct and used. Your choice. HTH Ernsdt / Google |
