AI Summary

This bill amends existing Massachusetts law to include low-frequency noise, infrasound, and Aerodynamic Amplitude Modulation (a type of wind turbine noise) in the definitions of noise and air pollution regulated by the state's Department of Environmental Protection under Chapter 21A, Section 8 of the Massachusetts General Laws.
