EXH AR023912: Letter Wingard to Drabek (Ecology) — State Public Disclosure Request Third Runway Construction Monitoring Records

In a September 21, 2001 fax to John Drabek, Permit Manager at the Washington State Department of Ecology's Northwest Regional Office, Greg Wingard of Smith & Lowney followed up on a delayed State Public Disclosure Request concerning environmental monitoring data from construction activities at the airport. The letter clarifies that documents requested as far back as June 5, 2001—including upstream/downstream construction monitoring records and turbidity discharge data—had not yet been produced, despite being roughly three months overdue. Wingard requested that the documents be made available no later than September 25, 2001, and offered to pick them up in person to avoid further delay.

Notes

Letter dated September 21, 2001, from Greg Wingard (Smith & Lowney, PO Box 4051, Seattle, WA) to John Drabek, Permit Manager, Northwest Regional Office, Department of Ecology, transmitted by fax (206-860-4187) to 425-649-7098. Wingard clarifies the scope of two prior state public disclosure requests: a June 5, 2001 request for all monitoring data for discharges from construction projects at Sea-Tac Airport from 1998 to June 6, 2001, and an August 13, 2001 follow-up requesting confirmation that Ecology held no records of sampling and analysis (as opposed to visual monitoring) for discharges or outfalls from construction-related activities. Wingard states documents responsive to the June 5 request — including upstream/downstream monitoring of construction phases and turbidity data in discharges — are now confirmed to exist and are approximately three months overdue. Demands documents be available for pickup no later than Tuesday, September 25, 2001. AR numbers AR023912–AR023914. Exhibit identifier EXH0604023912.
