    Letter to Ed Abbasi regarding unified position on NPDES permit modification for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

    In August 2005, the Port of Seattle and Citizens Against SeaTac Expansion (CASE) jointly wrote to the Washington Department of Ecology presenting a unified position on proposed changes to the NPDES wastewater permit for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The two parties collaborated to resolve disputed permit conditions — covering issues such as BOD discharge limits and pipeline compliance schedules — and categorized each comment as requiring a permit change, a response only, withdrawal, or unresolved. Both parties agreed not to appeal any permit modifications that fell within the mutually agreed categories, aiming to avoid litigation while achieving a workable final permit.

    EXH AR021398: Declaration John A. Strand PhD Support CASE Appeal Stay NPDES Major Modification PCHB 01-090

    In this 2001 declaration filed with Washington State's Pollution Control Hearings Board, fisheries biologist Dr. John A. Strand argues that proposed modifications to the Port of Seattle's stormwater discharge permit would harm Walker and Gilliam Creeks near Sea-Tac Airport, which support salmon, trout, and other aquatic life. Dr. Strand contends that Ecology failed to identify specific locations of new construction-related stormwater outfalls, denying the public a meaningful chance to assess environmental impacts. He supports a stay of the permit modification until its compliance with the Clean Water Act can be fully reviewed.

    EXH AR021068: Declaration Greg Wingard — CASE v. Ecology & Port, PCHB No. 01-090

    Greg Wingard, an environmental consultant and Executive Director of Waste Action Project, submitted this declaration in a 2001 Pollution Control Hearings Board appeal challenging a permit modification for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's stormwater discharges. Wingard argues that the modified NPDES permit failed to identify the specific locations of new discharge outfalls into local waterways including Miller, Des Moines, Gilliam, and Walker Creeks, preventing meaningful public participation and environmental review. He contends that without knowing where discharges will occur, it is impossible to evaluate potential cumulative impacts on downstream waterways and riparian property owners.

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.
