Environmental Health authorities in the city of Newtown between 1980 and

The line graph indicates changes about the number of complaints made about from
four different sources to Environmental health authorities in the city of Newtown over
a span of 16 years from 1980.
As for road works, there was a constant fall with the number falling from the peak of
roughly 650 in 1980 to the bottom of 100 in 1996. With regard to factories, during
initial 6 years, the number rose from 400 to approximately 700. This is then followed
by a leveling off until 1996. Remarkably, since 1982, numbers for the latter have
exceeded those for the former.
Traffic and domestic/household presented similar trends in their numbers of noise
complaints in the 16 years. To be more specific, during the first 4 years, figures
presented leveling offs at 300 for the former and 500 for the latter, respectively. Then
in the coming 2 years, drops were displayed with each dropping by 100, followed by
another leveling off until 1988. The final 8 years experienced dramatic growths with
the number for the latter peaking at 1,200 in 1996, twice as much as that for the
former.
