True/False

An urban planning technician is conducting a noise assessment near a busy intersection. If the heavy city traffic has a sound intensity of I=103I = 10^{-3} watts per square inch, then according to the standard formula D=10log(I1012)D = 10 \log\left(\frac{I}{10^{-12}}\right), the resulting noise level is 90 dB.
