Air Mail: Empty Lora Lake Apartment buildings to be removed

This Summer 2009 edition of Air Mail, published by the Port of Seattle for Sea-Tac Airport neighbors, covers the planned demolition of the former Lora Lake Apartments near the third runway, where soil contamination required cleanup under an Agreed Order with the Washington Department of Ecology. The newsletter also announces an upcoming Part 150 Noise and Land-Use Compatibility Study to assess real-world noise conditions, including the impact of the new third runway, and recognizes Virgin America and Federal Express with 2009 Fly Quiet Awards for minimizing aircraft noise. Additional community updates include Sea-Tac Airport scholarships awarded to Highline School District graduates and an environmental curriculum program at Aviation High School.
