Engineering company Ramboll's noise model forecasts that a data center north of Benton will emit 45 decibels at its nearest point, with reduced levels during nighttime hours. This projection aligns with Bossier Parish sound regulations.
The model was created using data from similar existing projects. An expert noted that releasing a noise model this early is unusual and may reflect an effort to address community concerns, as confirmed sound measurements will only be available after further studies using actual equipment.
