NOISE
There will be amplified music and the possible use of pyrotechnics at Spilt Milk. Adherence to the guidelines pertaining to allowable noise levels governed by the Environmental Protection Authority Victoria and WorkSafe Victoria are of paramount importance to the team behind Spilt Milk. Organisers, Kicks Entertainment, have employed professional acoustic consultants to develop a comprehensive Noise Management Plan to ensure the event complies with the City of Ballarat and EPA Authorisation for an outdoor concert. Whilst the noise may be audible at your residence, the event will be operating within these approved noise limits. Noise levels will be continually monitored by acoustic engineers and City of Ballarat officers over the course of the day to monitor noise spill in surrounding suburbs.
