In this 1998 court declaration, Lawrence Corvari, Co-President of Citizens Against SeaTac Expansion (CASE), challenges the Port of Seattle's Auburn Mitigation Plan and its environmental review determination. Corvari argues that building replacement wetlands in Auburn rather than near the affected Miller Creek or Des Moines Creek watersheds leaves adverse environmental impacts unmitigated, harming CASE members' ability to enjoy local wildlife and a healthy environment. The declaration also corrects what Corvari describes as misrepresentations of his deposition testimony by the Port's attorneys in their Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Standing.
