According to a Sydney Opera House spokesperson, the noise violations occurred under a set of conditions, ordevelopment application (DA), that were more than a decade old. 。
"Last year, the Opera House applied to modify the DA, including the introduction of new and more appropriate procedures to monitor and control sound at Forecourt events. This was approved by the Department of Planning and Environment in October 2016," the spokesperson said. 。
"The new sound monitoring arrangements have been working well, including during the Crowded House Forecourt performances in November last year, with overwhelmingly positive feedback from patrons. 。
"The Opera House will continue to host outdoor concerts on the Forecourt in line with the modified DA."。
