    EXH AR023671: Ecology Letter — Agreed Order 97TC-N122 Task Completion Status

    A November 2000 letter from the Washington State Department of Ecology to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport summarizes the completion status of environmental tasks required under Agreed Order 97TC-N122. The order mandated a comprehensive groundwater study of the Airport Operations and Maintenance Area (AOMA), including hydrogeological research, contamination mapping, and development of groundwater flow and contaminant transport models. While several research and data-collection tasks were completed, key items such as identifying unknown contamination sources, developing operational groundwater and transport models, and preparing a final Phase I Groundwater Study Report remained incomplete.

    EXH AR023669: Memo to Wietfeld & Wang — Info for Questions-To-Port List

    A November 2000 memo from Washington State Department of Ecology's Roger Nye raises concerns that the Port of Seattle failed to adequately identify potential soil and groundwater contamination sites at Sea-Tac Airport, as required by an Agreed Order. Nye outlines four key deficiencies, including the Port's failure to account for historical use of chlorinated solvents in aircraft washing, overlooked fueling facilities, and incomplete identification of contamination sources based on historical operations rather than just historical facilities. The memo calls for a thorough, honest effort to identify all potential contamination areas that could pose risks to nearby drinking water wells and surface waters.

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.
