  • Why American airports don’t sell anything you actually need?

    Woe betide the traveler who forgets her toiletries case, gets peckish, or has a headache at a US airport. At best, she might find tiny container of Advil or $10 packet of almonds in a Hudson News outlet, sandwiched between a Cinnabon and an Auntie Anne’s Preztels. But why is there no CVS or Walgreens

  • Smith Introduces Legislation to Support Aviation Impacted Communities

    Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Adam Smith introduced the Aviation Impacted Communities Act.

    Health based criteria for use in managing airport and aircraft noise

    This 2018 Harvard University master's thesis by Bryan Johnson examines health-based criteria that could be used to better manage noise from airports and aircraft. The research explores how noise exposure standards and guidelines could be grounded in public health evidence, offering a framework for more effective noise policy. It is relevant to ongoing discussions about managing community noise impacts around busy airports like Sea-Tac.

As the source for federal transportation grants, the Puget Sound Regional Council was charged with developing a system to meet the growing need for commercial aviation. When the search for a second airport failed, they authorized the Port of Seattle to build the Third Runway, with a mandate to develop a noise abatement and mitigation program. In their effort to stop the Third Runway, the ACC argued over every detail of the Port's efforts--including property buyouts and sound insulation. The dispute was meant to be settled by a three member Expert Arbitration Panel. This is their final report. It finds 2-1, that the Port's program was insufficient in several respects. Despite that, funding for the Third Runway was approved by the PSRC, and the 'Port Package' program, proceeded largely unchanged. Expert Arbitration Panel's final decision finding that the Port of Seattle had not shown sufficient reduction in real on-the-ground noise impacts to satisfy noise reduction conditions required for approval of a third runway at Sea-Tac International Airport. The majority decision concluded the Port's noise abatement programs were insufficient despite being impressive in scope.
