  Planning for the Event:

   

  26.              The Premises Licence Holder shall appoint a suitably qualified noise specialist, to the approval of the Environmental Protection Service, to produce a Noise               Management Plan (NMP). The NMP shall be produced no later than 6 weeks prior to the event and shall include details of predicted               noise levels at nearest noise               sensitive properties. The NMP shall detail measures for how noise will be monitored and proactively managed during               the event. The appointed noise specialist shall               liaise between all parties - Environmental Protection Service, Production Manager, DPS, sound system suppliers, sound engineers, Licensing Authority, on all matters               relating to noise control prior to and during the event.

   

  Prior to the Event:

   

  27.               A noise propagation test shall be undertaken with the Environmental Protection Service present, prior to the start of the event in order to set appropriate control limits               at the sound mixer position. The sound system shall be configured and operated in a similar manner as intended for the event. The sound source used for the test               shall be similar in character to the music               most likely to be produced during the event.

   

  28.               The noise specialist shall ensure that prior to the event during any testing of equipment, minimum noise levels are emitted from the sound equipment to reduce to its               lowest level any noise nuisance to local residents.

   

  During the Event:

   

  29.               The noise specialist shall ensure that noise is monitored at the perimeter of the site (or other appropriate noise sensitive location) throughout the event, and at least               during each different artist.

   

  30.               The noise specialist shall comply with any request made by a nominated officer of the Environmental Protection Service to reduce or remix sound emanating from the               amplification system.

   

  31.               Facilities shall be provided on the mixing desk, or other appropriate position, for a nominated officer of the Environmental Protection Service to monitor and where               necessary secure a reduction in noise level to a reasonable level.

   

  After the Event

   

  32.               A compliance/ evaluation report shall be produced within 6 weeks of the event detailing monitored noise levels during the event, compliance with agreed levels, number               of complaints received and action taken as a result of complaints, recommendations for future events.

   

  33.              Polycarbonates only - no glassware should be used at the event for the protection of Public Safety as one of the Licensing Objectives. Polycarbonates ideally should               be used as these are re-usable. All glass bottles should be decanted into polycarbonates;

   

  34.              Wet Handwashing - there should be handwashing facilities for wet               handwashing with soap to avoid the risk of oral-faecal transmission of disease, particularly in areas               where food is purchased and consumed, again for the protection of Public Safety;

   

  35.              Water - there should be freely accessible and available tap water at the event for the protection of Public Safety in the event of hot weather, to enable               people to drink               water to mitigate dehydration from alcohol consumption and alternate water for alcoholic drinks, and to avoid over-heating from illicit drug use;

   

  36.              Sunscreen - first aid stations at the event should offer free sun screen of an SPF of at least 15 and at least 4 star UVA protetction               https://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/skin/Pages/Sunsafe.aspx#SPF again for the protection of Public Safety;

   

  37.              Harm reduction - rather than zero tolerance approaches, harm reduction approaches should be taken to reduce harm from illicit drug use, including co-location of               drug workers from Sheffield’s Harm Reduction Service and Children and Young People’s drug service. This is for the reason that a festival cannot adequately control               the environment to ensure a drug free environment at an outdoor event, and it is possible that patrons may have pre-loaded with slow build up and long acting illicit               drugs before attending the festival. For the protection of Public Safety in this setting it is more appropriate to give clear messages that while the safest thing is not to               take drugs, there is free, confidential support from welfare staff at the event who will be looking out for and offering care to those who are experiencing               common side               effects of illicit drug use (usually panic, paranoia, overheating and water intoxification, very low or high blood pressure, very low or high heart rate seizures, sweating, c              onfusion, agitation, aggression - this list is not exhaustive);

   

  38.              This licence shall only be in effect on Friday 17th August 2018, Saturday 18th August 2018 and Sunday 19th August 2018.
