    Port Of Seattle Initial Section 404 Application Fill Material Third Runway Master Plan Update 12-18-1996 Barbara Hinkle

    The Port of Seattle is pleased to submit this Section 404 Application to place fill material into waters of the United States at Seattle Tacoma International Airport associated with the Master Plan Update improvements, as well as associated backup information. 1. Background The Port Commission's approval of the Master Plan Update in August 1996 was the culmination of nearly ten years of regional process regarding the need for additional airport capacity in the Puget Sound Region. It is the result of significant technical and environmental analyses; a comprehensive public information and involvement program; and extensive review of the airport capacity issue by airlines, other Airport users, citizens, and local and regional policy makers. A 39-member panel with representatives from cities and counties throughout the Region, aviatiOn industry experts, citizens, and the State - known as the Puget Sound Air Transportation Committee (PSATC) - was assembled and conducted the three-year long Flight Plan Study. The purpose of the Flight Plan was to develop a regional solution that would meet the Region's commerCial air travel needs to the year 2020 and beyond. The PSA TC conducted a thorough review of a wide range of options, including a replacement airport, supplemental airports, new navigational technologies, demand management, and high speed rail. The PSATC, Port and PSRC prepared and issued for public review and comment a report examining the potential environmental impacts of the studied alternatives. Following its deliberations, the PSATC recommended a multiple airport system that includes a new air carrier runway at…

    Barbara Hinkle to Barbara Stuhring re De-icer Ethylene Glycol

    RE: Your letter of November 17th to Mr. Paradee regarding the use of ethylene glycol at the Sea-Tac Airfield Dear Ms. Stuhring: Your letter has been forwarded to me for response. Please excuse the delay. With regard to the use of ethylene glycol: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approves or disapproves the use of deicing agents on airplanes. The Port of Seattle has no control over what is used on airplanes. The airlines do the deicing of their airplanes, not the Port, and must comply with all FAA regulations. Currently, the FAA allows only, and I stress only, the use of ethylene or propylene glycol. The airlines are not allowed to use any other chemicals for deicing. All deicing of airplanes occurs at the terminals or near hangers. I wish to stress tltat the areas where airplanes are deiced drain to the airfiled waste water treatment system, where the water is treated and then discharged to Puget Sound via a long outfall. These waters are not discharged to either Des Moines or Miller's creeks. The Port's treatment plant is not designed to treat glycols. However, the Port is currently evaluating alternative ways of modifying or adding to the treatment plant to treat the glycols. Again, I want to stress that these waters are not discharged to either Miller or Des Moines Greeks. The Port has not yet received a new permit from the Department of Ecology and therefore we do not know the new requirements. The Port does anticipate the…
