Environmental Noise (Identification of Noise Sources) (Wales) Regulations 2007 (W.S.I. No. 3519 (W. 311) of 2007)

W E L S H S TAT U T O RY I N S T R U M E N T S 2007 No. 3519 (W.311) ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, WALES The Environmental Noise (Identification of Noise Sources) (Wales) Regulations 2007 EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Order) These Regulations, which apply in relation to Wales, are made pursuant to the duty in regulation 3(1) of the Environmental Noise (Wales) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/2629 (W.225)) to identify the noise sources that must be mapped pursuant to the first paragraph of Article 7 of Directive 2002/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise (O.J. No. L 189, 18.07.2002, p. 12). The noise sources to be identified are agglomerations, major roads, major railways and major airports. Regulation 3 of the 2006 Regulations specifies criteria which the Welsh Ministers must apply when making identifications in relation to Wales. The criterion to be applied to major airports is that the airport is a civil airport which has more than 50,000 movements per year (a movement being a take-off or landing), excluding those purely for training purposes on light aircraft. The Welsh Ministers have determined that no airport in Wales meets this criterion: therefore no identification of a major airport is made in these Regulations. The identifications are made by reference to maps: these have been deposited at the offices of the Welsh Assembly Government at Cathays Park, Cardiff CF10 3NQ where they may be inspected during office hours. The maps are also available at the following web address: http://new.wales.gov.uk/topics/environmentcountrysid e/epq O F F E RY N N A U S TAT U D O L C Y M R U 2007 Rhif 3519 (Cy.311) DIOGELU'R AMGYLCHEDD, CYMRU Rheoliadau Sŵn Amgylcheddol (Nodi Ffynonellau Sŵn) (Cymru) 2007 NODYN ESBONIADOL (Nid yw'r nodyn hwn yn rhan o'r Gorchymyn) Mae'r Rheoliadau hyn, sy'n gymwys o ran Cymru, wedi'u gwneud yn unol â'r ddyletswydd yn rheoliad 3(1) o Reoliadau Sŵn Amgylcheddol (Cymru) 2006 (O.S. 2006/2629 (Cy.225)) i nodi'r ffynonellau sŵn y mae'n rhaid eu mapio yn unol â pharagraff cyntaf Erthygl 7 o Gyfarwyddeb 2002/49/EC Senedd Ewrop a'r Cyngor dyddiedig 25 Mehefin 2002 ynghylch asesu a thrafod sŵn amgylcheddol (O.J. Rhif L 189, 18.07.2002, t. 12). Crynodrefi, prif ffyrdd, prif reilffyrdd a phrif feysydd awyr yw'r ffynonellau sŵn sydd i'w nodi. Mae rheoliad 3 o Reoliadau 2006 yn pennu meini prawf y mae'n rhaid i Weinidogion Cymru eu cymhwyso wrth wneud y nodi mewn perthynas â Chymru. Y maen prawf i'w gymhwyso i brif feysydd awyr yw bod y maes awyr yn faes awyr sifil lle y mae mwy na 50,000 o symudiadau y flwyddyn (ac mae symudiad yn golygu awyren yn codi neu'n glanio), heb gynnwys symudiadau at ddibenion hyfforddiant yn unig ar awyrennau ysgafn. Mae Gweinidogion Cymru wedi penderfynu nad oes unrhyw faes awyr yng Nghymru yn bodloni'r maen prawf hwn: felly nid oes unrhyw brif faes awyr wedi'i nodi yn y Rheoliadau hyn. Mae'r nodi wedi'i wneud drwy gyfeirio at fapiau: mae'r rhain wedi'u hadneuo yn swyddfeydd Llywodraeth Cynulliad Cymru ym Mharc Cathays, Caerdydd CF10 3NQ lle gellir eu harchwilio yn ystod oriau swyddfa. Mae'r mapiau ar gael hefyd yn y cyfeiriad canlynol ar y we: http://new.wales.gov.uk/topics/environmentcountrysid e/epq/?lang=cy 1 Nid oes asesiad effaith reoleiddiol wedi'i gynnal mewn perthynas â'r Rheoliadau hyn. Er hynny, mae asesiad effaith reoleiddiol o'r effaith a fydd gan Reoliadau Sŵn Amgylcheddol (Cymru) 2006 ar gostau busnes a'r sector gwirfoddol ar gael i'w archwilio yn swyddfeydd Llywodraeth Cynulliad Cymru yn y cyfeiriad a nodwyd uchod. A regulatory impact assessment has not been carried out in relation to these Regulations. However, a regulatory impact assessment of the effect that the Environmental Noise (Wales) Regulations 2006 will have on the costs of business and the voluntary sector is available for inspection at the offices of the Welsh Assembly Government at the address stated above. 2 O F F E RY N N A U S TAT U D O L C Y M R U 2007 Rhif 3519 (Cy.311) DIOGELU'R AMGYLCHEDD, CYMRU Rheoliadau Sŵn Amgylcheddol (Nodi Ffynonellau Sŵn) (Cymru) 2007 Gwnaed 13 Rhagfyr 2007 Gosodwyd gerbron Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru 17 Rhagfyr 2007 Yn dod i rym 9 Ionawr 2008 Mae Gweinidogion Cymru wedi eu dynodi(1) at ddibenion adran 2(2) o Ddeddf y Cymunedau Ewropeaidd 1972(2), mewn perthynas â mesurau sy'n ymwneud ag asesu, trafod a rheoli sŵn amgylcheddol.
