One second??? That's an age these days. Especially if it's 120 dB above 
the limit.

That's probably reasonable. But I think that specific numbers are always 
going to be controversial. I'd prefer guidance in a Note, covering 
duration, average occurrence rate AND level.

Maybe the sum of 20*log(duration in seconds) and level above the limit 
in dB could be specified. Zero looks attractive for a guidance figure.
