It lists the applications it can support, from Official Plan amendments to minor variances, and the report's contents: rail impacts on new sensitive uses, STEAM noise modelling in STAMSON, a week of train operations data, and the 300m noise and 75m vibration distances from the May 2013 railway proximity guidelines.
