Notes
A letter from FAA Attorney Karl B. Lewis to CASE President Debi L. DesMarais responding to a January 1997 inquiry about the legality of the Governor delegating air and water quality certification requirements to another state agency. The letter explains that the FAA’s Record of Decision for the Sea-Tac International Airport Master Plan Update found the delegation to the Washington State Department of Ecology to be lawful, and that the Governor of Washington subsequently provided direct certification on June 30, 1997. Also included is a 1996 EPA Region 10 letter to the FAA regarding conformity analysis for the Sea-Tac Master Plan Update improvements.
