Core Viewpoint - Despite improvements in urban sound environment quality, noise complaints remain high in certain areas, indicating a need for enhanced noise pollution prevention measures [1] Current Deficiencies in Noise Pollution Prevention - The responsibility of regulatory departments in noise pollution prevention needs to be reinforced, with a clear division of responsibilities among the 16 agencies involved in the "14th Five-Year" noise pollution prevention action plan [2] - The existing system for comprehensive noise pollution prevention is not well-established, focusing more on end-of-pipe treatment rather than source prevention, leading to inadequate consideration of noise issues in planning and construction [3] - The overall regulatory capacity for noise pollution control requires improvement, with a lack of specific implementation regulations and limited technological support for monitoring and enforcement [3] Social Co-Governance Potential - The reliance on government efforts to address noise issues is insufficient, as the problem is widespread and diverse; there is a need to mobilize social forces and grassroots initiatives for effective noise management [4] Recommendations for Enhancing Noise Regulation Efficiency - Strengthen the accountability of industry regulatory departments by clarifying their responsibilities through ecological environment protection work responsibility lists and increasing public awareness of noise regulation duties [5] - Continuously improve the comprehensive prevention system by integrating noise considerations into planning and construction processes, and enhancing inter-departmental collaboration to address recurring noise complaints [5] - Enhance overall regulatory capabilities by developing local regulations, promoting technological solutions for noise monitoring, and incorporating noise management into urban governance frameworks [6] Activating Social Co-Governance Potential - Increase public awareness of noise prevention laws through engaging methods, and establish community-based initiatives to create quiet agreements and volunteer monitoring systems [7]
