    EXH 272: Draft Meeting Notes — Low Flow Analysis, 401 Permit Decision-Making, STIA Third Runway (July 9, 2001)

    These draft meeting notes from July 9, 2001 document a technical working session between the Port of Seattle, Washington Department of Ecology, and King County regarding low stream flow analysis for the Sea-Tac International Airport Third Runway project. The group discussed methods for determining low flow impacts on fish habitat, reviewed a mitigation proposal for the Des Moines Watershed involving a 0.1 cfs compensatory flow release from July 24 through October 24, and received a status briefing on the Miller and Walker watershed analyses. Key topics included the use of 2-year 7-day low flow rates to calculate mitigation requirements, reserve vault sizing, and how to handle non-hydrologic effects such as water rights removal and septic system impacts in the property acquisition area.

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.
