The Summit County Public Shooting Range is a free community resource that overlooks the impeccable Tenmile Range and brings in visitors from all over the region, including as far as Denver. But as surrounding residential areas, like Summit Cove and Keystone, have grown in size, the resource has become a source of contempt for many residents due to noise complaints.
That’s why Summit County hired sound consulting firm Siebein Associates, based in Florida, to conduct a study that evaluates noise challenges at the range and researches noise reduction strategies that could help mitigate the issue.
