    Letter Karen Keiser to Marc-Stiles Seattle-Times (from Port Of Seattle in violation of Federal Grant Assurance C6 Minnie O. Brasher

    A June 10, 1998 Washington State Legislature letter addressed to Marc Stiles, Reporter at the Seattle Times, detailing the State Auditor's Office confirmation that the Port of Seattle violated Federal Grant Assurance C.6 requirements by failing to secure written declarations of support from surrounding jurisdictions for Sea-Tac Airport noise remedy programs. The letter notes that over $100 million in federal grants had been spent on noise insulation for homes near Sea-Tac, and that Congressman Adam Smith had requested a GAO investigation into the matter.

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.
