After continued meetings between the Department of Natural Resources, Citizens for a Quiet Community, Green Oak Township, Huron Clinton Metropolitan Authority (Kensington Park), and representatives from the Michigan legislature, the DNR has arranged for new sound tests.

The controlled-study sound tests will measure gunshot noise received throughout the community from the Island Lake Shooting Range. These tests will analyze the sound received in a variety of environmental conditions to determine the most noise offending shooting locations. Recommendations will be made for shooting station configuration or range modifications for noise reduction. This new sound study will be completed in the  fall of 2008.
