No person shall operate any sound reproduction device, provided that this subdivision shall not apply to the regular and customary use of portable radios, record players, compact disc players, television receivers, tape recorders or other similar devices played or operated in full accordance with these Rules so as not unreasonably to disturb other persons in their permitted uses of the parks, including any park street, except that in areas designated by ParksCorp as “quiet zones” such regular and customary use of sound reproduction devices shall be prohibited.
