Popis: The justification for, or arguments against, noise control is often based on the economic costs of abatement, the dollar costs of incurred illnesses or compensation to workers, or the dollar degradation of property caused by industrial or community noise. But there are other costs that are difficult to quantify in any terms, much less in dollar amounts. This paper provides a brief discussion of the problems of trying to quantify concepts that essentially cannot be quantified.
