    EXH AR023763: Internal Email – Third Runway Excavation Material Disposal Site Options

    A March 1999 internal email from Patrick Cagney of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers discusses potential disposal sites for excavated soil material related to a construction project near Seattle. Three options were identified: the Port of Seattle's third runway project (no tipping fee, hauling costs only), ProCon at 16 miles away (costs ranging from $32–$124 depending on truck size and material wetness), and Sunset at 13 miles away ($1.75 per yard). The email notes that hauling distances would be the primary cost driver across all options.

    EXH AR025788: Geotechnical Design Recommendations Phase 1 Embankment Construction Third Runway STIA

    This January 1998 geotechnical engineering report by AGI Technologies provides design recommendations for Phase 1 embankment construction related to the Third Runway Project at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The report covers site conditions including subsurface soil layers and groundwater, as well as design concepts addressing embankment stability, settlement, and drainage. It was prepared for HNTB Corporation as part of the engineering groundwork for the airport's runway expansion.

    Appendix C-4: Construction Impacts Report — Seattle-Tacoma International Airport Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement

    This technical report supplements the Final Environmental Impact Statement for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's Master Plan Update, focusing on construction impacts related to the proposed Third Runway and associated projects. It analyzes fill material requirements estimated at 17.25 million cubic yards, haul routes, and truck traffic volumes, noting that the construction timeline was extended from three to five years, which reduced the number of average daily truck trips compared to earlier estimates. The report examines both on-site and off-site material sources and assesses potential traffic congestion impacts on regional roadways during the construction period.

    Stormwater erosion and sediment control for large parcel construction

    This Washington State Department of Ecology report outlines stormwater erosion and sediment control requirements for large construction projects involving one or more acres of disturbed land in the Puget Sound Basin. It describes best management practices (BMPs) such as covering exposed soil, trapping sediment onsite, and protecting adjacent properties from runoff and sediment. Developers are required to create an erosion and sediment control plan and are financially responsible for its implementation.

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.

Read This!

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.
