Letter dated February 5, 2002 from Hamid ‘Ed’ Abbasi, Environmental Engineer, Washington State Department of Ecology (NWRO) to Michael Feldman, Director of Aviation Facilities & Environmental Programs, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Ecology denies the Port Of Seattle’s request for an Administrative Order to bypass the industrial waste treatment system at Lagoon #3 under NPDES Permit WA-002465-1,

This legal declaration by William A. Rozeboom, filed before Washington State's Pollution Control Hearings Board, challenges the Port of Seattle and the Department of Ecology over their environmental review of Sea-Tac Airport expansion. Rozeboom disputes the adequacy of water flow modeling used to assess impacts on Walker and Des Moines Creeks, argues that wastewater system effects on stream flow were improperly ignored, and contends that the proposed mitigation conditions in Ecology's 401 Certification are insufficient. He also challenges claims that the Port fully complied with King County's Surface Water Design Manual, noting the Port exempted itself from key drainage review requirements.

This document is a professional resume for W.A. Rozeboom, a civil engineer and hydrologist with 20 years of experience in water resources management, surface water hydrology, and hydraulic modeling. His work has focused primarily on flood control, stormwater management, floodplain mapping, and water rights administration in Washington State, Hawaii, and other regions. This document does not appear to contain content directly relevant to Sea-Tac Airport noise policy.

This legal document is a supplemental response filed by the Airport Communities Coalition (ACC) in a Washington State Pollution Control Hearings Board case against the Port of Seattle and the Department of Ecology. It lists scientific references and studies relied upon by ACC's expert witnesses, covering topics such as water quality, dissolved oxygen levels from runway de-icing at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, and the effects of airport-related chemicals on aquatic life including salmon and trout. The document reflects ongoing litigation over the environmental impact of Sea-Tac Airport operations on surrounding waterways.

This 2002 legal document is a supplemental response filed by the Airport Communities Coalition (ACC) in a Pollution Control Hearings Board case against the Washington State Department of Ecology and the Port of Seattle, related to the expansion of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. It lists technical documents and expert references relied upon by ACC's witnesses, covering topics such as hydraulics, biology, and geotechnical engineering related to the proposed third runway project. The filing also summarizes the prior trial testimony experience of expert witnesses retained by the ACC.

A February 2002 letter from Marten Brown attorneys transmits a CD-ROM of data files and related emails from Pacific Groundwater Group (PGG) to opposing counsel in the case ACC v. Port of Seattle. The materials include technical data and correspondence relied upon by expert Charles Ellingson and PGG in forming their opinions and conclusions. Supporting emails from October 2001 detail groundwater inflow and surface runoff modeling data exchanged between consultants Joe Brascher and PGG.

This document, labeled Exhibit E, contains photographs taken on January 31, 2002 of the Vacca Farm site, showing various land features including areas designated as Prior Converted Cropland, farmed wetlands, and Wetland A1. The photos document the site's vegetation and water features, including a close-up of wetland plants and a view of Miller Creek looking west across Wetland A1. The images appear to be part of an environmental or land-use assessment record related to the Vacca Farm property near Des Moines Way.

Handwritten field observation notes by R. Azous (Azous Exhibit 387, dated 2-19-02) transmitted via fax from Helsell Fetterman LLP on 02-19-2002, documenting site visits to Vacca Farm and West Side areas adjacent to Miller Creek and STIA. Notes cover wetland conditions, plant communities (cattail, alder, Juncus, Phalaris, Sparganium, sedge), upland buffer zones, NRM planting plan
