Air Mail: First Community Workshop For Tackling Airport Noise Issues

The Port of Seattle's Winter 2010 Air Mail newsletter announces the first public workshop for the FAA Part 150 Noise and Land-Use Compatibility Study at Sea-Tac Airport, scheduled for February 24, 2010, at Mount Rainier High School in Des Moines. The study aims to assess existing noise levels, predict future noise impacts over five years, and develop mitigation recommendations—with a major focus on the third runway's community effects. The newsletter also covers the opening of Sound Transit's Link light rail service to the airport, completed runway reconstruction, and the Port's finalized wetlands restoration project tied to third-runway construction.
