Does anyone have a 'quotable' specification for an acceptable sound level
for an office environment?  By quotable, I mean a MIL standard, OSHA spec,
or the like that I can plug into a military Request for Proposal.  We all 
instinctivly know what we can live with, but firm dB levels seem hard to
come by.  Minimum I need are noise levels, but any other (like levels at
specific frequencies) would be appreciated.

Thanx,
Doug
