Resolution No. 2943 was adopted by the Port of Seattle's Port Commission to update the Noise Remedy Program for Sea-Tac International Airport, replacing the earlier noise remedy element from the 1976 Sea-Tac Communities Plan. The resolution outlines a structured approach to reducing noise impacts on surrounding communities, including property acquisition in high-noise areas, noise abatement measures, and a Demonstration Project—budgeted at up to one million dollars—to test additional remedies such as noise insulation and transaction assistance for affected homeowners. Annual progress reports and priority consideration for hardship cases and long-term residents are also required under the program.Open full document
