installs on or in any premises any equipment which, when operated, emits
unreasonable noise and which the person knows or, if the person had exercised
reasonable care, would have known so to emit when so installed and operated,
commits an offence.
(2) If the occupier of
any premises is convicted of committing an offence under this Act in respect
of the emission of unreasonable noise by any equipment which was installed on
