EXH AR023932: Email & Table 4.1-1 Natural Resource Mitigation Plan — MRNP Summary Tables Third Runway STIA Master Plan Update 2001

This 2001 Natural Resource Mitigation Plan document for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport outlines proposed environmental mitigation actions associated with construction of a new third runway and related facilities. It details a sequenced approach to avoiding, minimizing, and compensating for impacts to wetlands, Miller Creek, Des Moines Creek, and other natural resources. Key measures include constructing retaining walls to protect wetlands, restoring the Vacca Farm floodplain, establishing forested stream buffers, and providing a $300,000 trust fund for fisheries habitat enhancement.
