    Noise of the Future

    A 2018 Boeing presentation by Senior Manager Robert Stoker outlines the aviation industry's progress in reducing aircraft noise and fuel consumption, noting roughly a 90% reduction in noise footprint and 70% improvement in fuel efficiency since the 1950s. The document highlights Boeing's current fleet — the 737 MAX, 747-8, 787, and 777X — each delivering significant reductions in both noise footprint (ranging from 30% to 60% smaller) and fuel/CO2 emissions compared to the models they replace.

  • Boeing: Airport Noise and Emissions Regulations

    Introduction The purpose of this web site is to track and report airport noise and emissions restrictions and government regulations for airline customers. This information also allows us a better understanding of problems a customer airline may encounter at a particular airport and to assist them in developing possible solutions. We would like to thank

  • Boeing makes gains in year of turbulence

    By Dominic Gates Seattle Times aerospace reporter It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. It was a year of fundamental shifts within Boeing. In 2004, the leaden skies above the company’s local operations at last began to brighten. • A spectacular Navy contract worth potentially $40 billion secured the future

    EXH AR023534: Baseline Soil & Groundwater Quality Assessment — Seattle City Light Long-Term Lease Option

    A 1990 environmental assessment by Roy F. Weston Inc. evaluated soil and groundwater quality on an undeveloped Seattle property along the Duwamish Waterway, where Boeing was considering a 50-year lease with Seattle City Light. The study examined areas where dredged sediment from the Duwamish Waterway had been deposited in 1968 and 1985, testing for contaminants including PCBs, pentachlorophenols, PAHs, and metals. Prior sampling had found contaminant levels generally below state-regulated thresholds, and this baseline assessment was conducted to document existing conditions before any lease agreement was finalized.

    Memorandum of understanding: Boeing headquarters – reclassification of property

    This 1981 Memorandum of Understanding between the Port of Seattle and King County outlines terms for reclassifying approximately 30 acres of land on the west side of Sea-Tac International Airport to allow Boeing to develop a Corporate Headquarters Facility. The agreement includes provisions for the Port to lease 5 acres to King County for a neighborhood park at $1 per year, and restricts development on an adjacent 55-acre greenbelt buffer zone for at least 10 years. The document also affirms King County's zoning authority over non-airport-related land use at Sea-Tac and establishes a dispute resolution process between the two agencies.

Issues

Sea-Tac Airport is currently undergoing the largest and longest expansion in its history, collectively known as the Sustainable Airport Master Plan (SAMP). Some of it you can already hear, but you’re probably not aware of what it all means. Here’s what you need to know.

As the source for federal transportation grants, the Puget Sound Regional Council was charged with developing a system to meet the growing need for commercial aviation. When the search for a second airport failed, they authorized the Port of Seattle to build the Third Runway, with a mandate to develop a noise abatement and mitigation program. In their effort to stop the Third Runway, the ACC argued over every detail of the Port's efforts--including property buyouts and sound insulation. The dispute was meant to be settled by a three member Expert Arbitration Panel. This is their final report. It finds 2-1, that the Port's program was insufficient in several respects. Despite that, funding for the Third Runway was approved by the PSRC, and the 'Port Package' program, proceeded largely unchanged. Expert Arbitration Panel's final decision finding that the Port of Seattle had not shown sufficient reduction in real on-the-ground noise impacts to satisfy noise reduction conditions required for approval of a third runway at Sea-Tac International Airport. The majority decision concluded the Port's noise abatement programs were insufficient despite being impressive in scope.
