FAA Seattle Airports District Office letter dated June 5, 2025, from Acting Manager Ryan C. Zulauf to King County International Airport (Boeing Field) Airport Director John Parrott, notifying that the Noise Exposure Maps (NEM) submitted May 1, 2025, comply with 14 CFR Part 150 and Title 49 USC Chapter 475. FAA determined the ‘2023 Existing

The five-year strategic plan for King County International Airport-Boeing Field (KCIA) establishes six strategic goals—engage, ensure, invest, plan, promote, and support—to guide the airport’s mission and vision through 2030. The plan was developed collaboratively with the Airport Roundtable, tenants, and community members, and aligns with King County’s True North and Values. It was approved by

This is a campus map for the Museum of Flight in Seattle, showing the layout of its East and West campuses along East Marginal Way South adjacent to Boeing Field. The map identifies key buildings and galleries, outdoor aircraft displays including a B-52G Stratofortress, F/A-18A Hornet, and Lockheed Super Constellation, as well as parking areas, bus stops, and entrance points. It does not contain information related to Sea-Tac Airport noise policy.

A parking and directions guide for the Boeing Museum of Flight in Seattle, Washington.

A detailed map illustrates the campus layout including main, overflow, and additional parking areas.

This document is the FAA's official Record of Approval for King County International Airport/Boeing Field's (Boeing Field/BFI) Noise Compatibility Program under Federal Aviation Regulation Part 150. It outlines six key recommendations to reduce aircraft noise impacts on nearby residents, including developing combined noise contours with Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, implementing quieter flight approach and departure procedures, and upgrading noise monitoring systems. The FAA reviewed and issued determinations on each recommendation, approving most measures on a voluntary basis while noting that approvals do not constitute commitments to implement the actions.

Former King County International Airport (BFI) Noise Officer Sharyn Parker's prepared notes for a GAO interview outline significant concerns about FAA regulatory failures and Sea-Tac Airport's inadequate noise mitigation practices in the Seattle region. Parker argues that the FAA has consistently failed to require Sea-Tac to update noise exposure maps, enforce timely sound mitigation programs, or conduct meaningful public outreach — particularly for minority communities disproportionately affected by flight path changes like the Greener Skies/RNP initiative. The notes also highlight contradictions between Sea-Tac's deliberately low flight-operation projections in its Part 150 noise studies and the far higher growth figures used in its capital development plans.
