In March 1997, the Airport Communities Coalition — representing the cities of Burien, Des Moines, Federal Way, Normandy Park, and Tukwila, as well as Highline Public Schools — submitted formal comments on the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement for proposed development actions at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The comments were prepared by Washington, D.C. law firm Cutler & Stanfield, L.L.P., in consultation with a team of noise, engineering, and environmental experts from across the country. The document reflects community concerns about the environmental and noise impacts of the airport's Master Plan Update on surrounding neighborhoods.

This 1997 intergovernmental agreement, signed by the Highline School District and several cities in the Sea-Tac Airport vicinity — including Des Moines, Normandy Park, Burien, Federal Way, and Tukwila — establishes a coordinated framework for addressing airport noise impacts and related funding for schools. The agreement supersedes earlier agreements from February 1992 and June 1996 between the same parties. It outlines provisions for settlement authority, dispute resolution, and the role of the Airport Communities Coalition (ACC) Executive Committee in approving any claims or compromises.

Letter dated December 18, 1996 from Barbara Hinkle, Senior Environmental Specialist, Port Of Seattle, to Jack Kennedy, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle District Office, submitting a Section 404 Application to place fill material into waters of the United States at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport associated with the Master Plan Update. Covers background on the Puget

In December 1996, the Port of Seattle submitted a Section 404 permit application to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to place fill material into wetlands at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport as part of its Master Plan Update, which included construction of a third parallel runway. The proposed runway, located 2,500 feet west of the existing runways, was intended to address severe arrival delays during poor weather conditions, which reduced airport capacity from 60 to as few as 24 arrivals per hour roughly 44% of the year. The application was the result of nearly a decade of regional planning, environmental review, and public involvement, including studies confirming that no feasible supplemental airport sites existed in the four-county region.
