3.14 Measurements in normally unoccupied spaces

  3.14.1 In addition to the spaces referred to in sections 3.10 to 3.13, measurements shall be taken in all locations with unusually high noise levels where seafarers may be exposed, even for relatively short periods, and at intermittently used machinery locations.

  3.14.3 In cargo holds, at least three microphone positions in parts of holds where personnel are likely to carry out work shall be used.
