EXH 322: Flow Rate vs. Time — Minute, Hourly & Infiltration Capacity Diagram
This document, marked as Leytham Exhibit 222 (dated 2/11/02), contains a hand-drawn diagram illustrating flow rate over time, showing the relationship between minute and hourly measurements alongside an infiltration capacity curve. The sketch plots flow rate on the vertical axis against time intervals (15, 30, 45, 60 minutes) on the horizontal axis, with a shaded area indicating peak flow. It appears to be a technical exhibit related to stormwater or drainage analysis presented in proceedings concerning Sea-Tac Airport policy. -

EXH 298: Declaration Paul Fendt Supporting Opposition ACC Motion Partial Summary Judgment
This declaration by Paul Fendt, a licensed civil engineer with over 18 years of stormwater experience, was submitted in support of the Port of Seattle's opposition to the Airport Communities Coalition's motion in a 2001 Washington Pollution Control Hearings Board case. Fendt explains how new airport development and impervious surfaces can impact local waterways by increasing runoff and reducing groundwater recharge, and describes the stormwater management systems required by the Washington Department of Ecology for the Port of Seattle's Master Plan Update projects. The document provides technical background on stormwater best management practices (BMPs) and regulatory requirements under Washington State and federal Clean Water Act permits. -

EXH AR021688: Turbidity Data Email — Sea-Tac Tank Farm Outfall vs. DM Creek, Jan 28, 2002
An email dated February 8, 2002, from Peter Willing to John Strand reports turbidity measurements taken during a site visit at Sea-Tac on January 28, 2002, between 11:45 and 12:08. Two samples were recorded: Sample #1 showed tank farm outfall at 281 NTU and DM Creek at 31 NTU, while Sample #2 showed tank farm outfall at 299 NTU and DM Creek at 31.2 NTU. The data indicates significantly elevated turbidity levels at the tank farm outfall compared to the creek reference point. -

EXH 333: Letter Reavis (Marten Brown) to Stock Transmitting Strunk Reference Docs — PCHB No. 01-160
A February 2002 letter from Marten Brown attorneys transmits two spreadsheets listing reference documents used by expert witness John Strunk in the case ACC and CASE v. Port of Seattle and Department of Ecology (PCHB No. 01-160). The spreadsheets catalog technical reports and studies related to preferential ground water flow paths near the proposed Third Runway at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, covering sites such as airline fuel farms, maintenance hangars, and contaminated ground water areas. Documents were produced by environmental consultants including Associated Earth Sciences and EMCON, spanning reports from the mid-1990s through 2001. -

EXH 284: STIA Third Runway Active Construction Site Map AOA Restricted Area Embankment Lagoon Stockpile
This document (AR 019657) is a site map of an active construction area at what appears to be Sea-Tac Airport, showing a restricted AOA (Air Operations Area) zone, embankments, and Lagoon 3. Handwritten annotations reference two stockpiles dated 1997 and 1999, with approximate volumes of 400,000 cubic yards and 2,100,000 cubic yards respectively. The map was entered as Exhibit 284 on 2/7/02, with witness Clark and court reporter Diane Mills. -

EXH 329: GeoSyntec Letter to USACE — Third Runway Low Flow Analysis Comments
A February 2002 technical letter from GeoSyntec Consultants, written on behalf of the Airport Communities Coalition, raises concerns about the Port of Seattle's low flow analysis for the Sea-Tac Airport Third Runway expansion project. The letter argues that the Port's analysis fails to account for the years-long delay before water would flow through the new embankment fill into drainage systems feeding nearby creeks, potentially leaving those creeks without adequate water during the critical early years of operation. GeoSyntec concludes that the Port has not demonstrated the project's storage vaults are properly sized, and that the underlying computer models are unreliable due to lack of calibration and flawed assumptions about soil hydraulic conductivity. -

EXH AR026356: NPDES Waste Discharge Permit WA0037953 — Cascade Pole & Lumber Co., Tacoma
This is a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) waste discharge permit issued by the Washington State Department of Ecology to Cascade Pole and Lumber Company, a wood preserving facility in Tacoma, Washington. The permit, valid from March 2002 to March 2007, authorizes the company to discharge treated stormwater and process wastewater into the Blair Waterway and Puyallup River, subject to strict discharge limits, monitoring requirements, and pollution prevention measures. Note: this document pertains to water quality regulation and does not contain information related to Sea-Tac Airport noise policy.
