A try to help noise or work environment thing? Or a classified space
A little bit of both. We do discuss sensitive information (not classified, obvs, but we do work with Dept of Corrections, for example) and I'm guessing it was also installed just as a general  workplace comfort thing (dunno, it was here when I got the job). The HVAC isn't that loud so I think a vendor probably just aced the sales pitch and got the county to buy a baziliion of these things.

 
Depends. Is this a bad HVAC thing? A try to help noise or work environment thing? Or a classified space where white noise is used to counter potential FIS recording capabilities?
Our office pumps in white noise (or maybe pink or brown, I don't remember which). It supposedly muffles distant conversations and improves the office quality of life. It's necessary in the customer service and sales areas, because they are all on calls constantly. So the company just does it everywhere.

I actually rarely notice it. It actually is really off-putting whenever it goes off. Like, why is it so quiet in here.
