    This document outlines the American National Standard for maximum permissible ambient noise levels for audiometric test rooms. It provides noise level limits in decibels for different octave band intervals from 125 Hz to 8000 Hz, with specifications for both when a patient's ears are covered and uncovered during testing. The levels are highest when ears are covered and decrease when ears are uncovered to account for additional noise reduction provided by the ear covers.
