    2026.07

    A legal review of the FAA's new Aircraft Noise Advisory Committee (ANAC) finds that while the committee includes community representatives, aviation industry members are likely to outnumber and outvote them, limiting residents' real influence over noise policy decisions. The review also raises concerns that key technical work done in subcommittees may happen outside public view, with no requirement for minority reports when community members are overruled. The author recommends the FAA adopt clearer voting rules, guaranteed community seats on subcommittees, and routine public disclosure of meeting records and competing recommendations.

Members would serve staggered five-year terms, with new appointments beginning annually in 1982.

    Sea-Tac Communities Plan program idea weighting introduction

    This document outlines a planning framework for evaluating policy ideas related to Sea-Tac Airport and surrounding communities. Each idea is scored on two factors — technical feasibility (Possibility of Application) and community acceptance (Acceptance Factor) — which are multiplied together to produce an Index of Implementation Probability ranging from 0 to 9. Ideas scoring 0 are eliminated from consideration, while higher-scoring ideas advance as viable planning alternatives to be combined and refined in a subsequent phase of the planning process.
