everything lower than -10 db would need to be put at -10 db. Things
louder than -10 db should remain untouched. Ideally, the threshold
should have an inferior limit. So everything from say -15 from -10 db
should be leveled to -10 db. Things louder than -10 db should be left
as is and so for things lower than -15 db.

OYes indeed. The compressor that comes with audacity will do that
just fine. there are also a few limiters in the NyQuist plugins
section that installs with Audacity.
Under Preferences, Effects, take advantage of Audacity's ability to
sort plugins in various ways: by most recently added, by
manufacturer, by effect name, etc. If you sort by effect name, you
could press alt+C from within the track panel for the effect menu,
then press the letter C until you hear Compressor, or the letter L
until you hear Limiter.
Even better, you can assign specific key bindings to any installed
effect you want. So, if you find yourself using a compressor/limiter
frequently, but don't want to bother navigating the effects menu, set
up a key binding under Preferences, Keyboard. Whenever you press that
key combination, you'll be put in that effect window, where you can
change settings and apply the effect.
