Its objectives are to equip the South Dakota DOT and local communities with education and tools to implement noise compatible land use planning; to recommend policies and guidelines for the South Dakota DOT to use to determine appropriate designs and roadway surfaces in noise sensitive areas; and to define performance measures to assess the effectiveness of the program."
