The 26st annual conference of the Institute of Noise Control Engineering, NOISE-CON 2010, will run concurrently with the 159th Meeting of the Acoustical Society on Monday through Wednesday (April 19-21, 2010), culminating with the Closing Ceremony which will take place with the ASA Awards Ceremony on Wednesday afternoon (21 October, 2010). Many of the Noise and some of the other ASA Technical Committee Sessions (e.g., Architectural Acoustics, Engineering Acoustics, Structural Acoustics and Vibrations) will be part of the joint ASA - NOISE-CON conference, thus forming an exciting and coherent program of noise control related sessions, which reflects the overlap in membership interests between the two organizations, and the spirit of co-operation that led to the decision to have this joint meeting. Note, there will be one registration fee for both conferences, so NOISE-CON 2010 participants are encouraged to take the opportunity to learn about some of the work being done in other areas of acoustics, not usuall y part of regular NOISE-CON technical programs, by attending the sessions taking place on Thursday and Friday.

Mike Lucas of Ingersoll Rand is the NOISE-CON 2010 General Chair. Courtney Burroughs, Noise Control Engineering Journal Editor is the technical program chairs.

There will also be an exposition of vendors of noise-control related materials, software and instrumentation as well as consulting companies. The exposition hours are Monday April 19 5:00-7:00pm and Tuesday April 20 1:00-7:30pm.

There will be Plenary talks for Noise-Con 2010.

Prior to the conference, there will be short courses, one on INCE Fundamental Exam Preparation, and others to be determined.
