for Wednesday August 24th.

The noisy shredder truck was grinding away last Tuesday. It is loud enough to bother the smokers nearby. I took some readings on it. Does the hospital have liability for ear damage for the nearby smokers?
......
This reading was taken from my back porch. The truck can be heard clearly inside our home.
............
This reading was taken on my property line with Mercy.
Next to the shredder machinery on the outside. The noise inside the truck back was deafening.
No reading taken there.

The operator should have been wearing ear plugs to protect himself. I spoke to Mr. Judd Shank of Mercy about trucks in general and the shredder in particiular. Mercy seems to be making headway to end the freight handling problems on J St.
