Appendix C-4: Construction Impacts Report — Seattle-Tacoma International Airport Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement

This technical report supplements the Final Environmental Impact Statement for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's Master Plan Update, focusing on construction impacts related to the proposed Third Runway and associated projects. It analyzes fill material requirements estimated at 17.25 million cubic yards, haul routes, and truck traffic volumes, noting that the construction timeline was extended from three to five years, which reduced the number of average daily truck trips compared to earlier estimates. The report examines both on-site and off-site material sources and assesses potential traffic congestion impacts on regional roadways during the construction period.
