The following performance standards shall apply to any existing or proposed use, or portion thereof, permitted in any manufacturing or industrial zone:

(a) Noise and Sound. Any existing or proposed use, or portion thereof, generating sounds which are or may be considered a nuisance or hazard on any adjacent property due to the intermittence, beat frequency, or shrillness of the sounds shall have the source of the noise or sound muffled or controlled in such a manner as will prevent the issuance, continuance, or recurrence of the disturbance.
