This September 2017 Port of Seattle Commission presentation provides the second of two updates on the Long Range Plan (LRP) for 2018–2022, covering remaining Century Agenda and High Performance Organization objectives. It recaps key accomplishments from the first review held in July 2017, during which 20 of 27 LRP objectives were shared, and notes that Commission feedback from that session was incorporated into the latest draft document. The update outlines next steps for finalizing the five-year plan.

The Port of Seattle's 2017–2021 Long Range Plan outlines a five-year rolling strategy to achieve the Port's Century Agenda goals, including adding 100,000 jobs to reach 300,000 total port-related jobs in the region while reducing its environmental footprint. Developed by over 100 Port employees, the plan covers five focus areas — aviation, maritime, economic development, environment, and high-performance organization — and sets specific actions and performance measures for each. The plan is updated and formally adopted by the Commission annually to guide budgeting and operational priorities across all Port divisions.

The 2015 Environmental Progress Report for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport outlines the airport's sustainability achievements under its Strategy for a Sustainable Sea-Tac (S3), including increasing the recycling rate from 23 to 34 percent, pursuing renewable natural gas partnerships to cut carbon emissions by 70 percent, and achieving a 90 percent construction waste recycling rate. The report covers environmental, economic, and social sustainability goals integrated with the Port of Seattle's Century Agenda, built on the foundation of the airport's 2009 environmental strategy. Note that this report focuses on broad environmental and sustainability initiatives rather than noise policy specifically.

A December 2015 presentation by Sea-Tac Airport's Director of Environmental & Planning outlines how the airport is weaving sustainability into its Master Plan across three phases: what and where it builds, how it builds, and how it operates. The plan is guided by the Port of Seattle's Century Agenda and the airport's own Strategy for a Sustainable Sea-Tac (S3), with development concepts for airfield, terminal, and landside areas being screened against sustainability-based evaluation criteria. Key planning constraints include meeting passenger demand growth without adding new runways, improving airfield efficiency through NextGen technology, and converting sustainability goals into measurable decision-making criteria.

This presentation by Port of Seattle CEO Ted J. Fick outlines the Port's role as an economic engine for Washington State, highlighting its mission to create jobs through travel, trade, and commerce. The Port's Century Agenda, a 25-year strategic plan launched in 2011, aims to add 100,000 jobs through economic growth, position the region as a premier international logistics hub, and become the greenest port in North America. Success is measured by job creation, social responsibility, and environmental impact.

In December 2012, the Port of Seattle Commission approved the Century Agenda, a 25-year strategic plan aimed at adding 100,000 jobs, expanding trade and air travel, and reducing the Port's environmental footprint. The plan sets goals including making Seattle-Tacoma International Airport the West Coast's top international gateway, doubling international flights, and cutting air pollutant emissions by 50% from 2005 levels. It also outlines commitments to small business development, energy efficiency, and regional collaboration across Puget Sound ports.
