Noise Control

While Illinois EPA does not have an active noise control program, regulations can be viewed on the Internet at the Pollution Control Board's Environmental Regulations page. Any law enforcement office can enforce these regulations. If you have a complaint about excessive noise, the following might help: 
  • If the noise is from loud motor vehicles, contact your local police department.
  • If the noise is from airplanes, contact the FAA at (847) 294-7336 or at the FAA web site.  
  • If the noise is from railroads, contact the Illinois Commerce Commission at 1-800-524-0795 or on the ICC web site.
  • If the noise is from industrial, commercial or residential property (such as an air conditioner unit or loud music), contact your local police department, or health department.
