The King County Health Study is a publicly funded research effort that examines how SeaTac Airport operations affect the health of surrounding communities through noise and air pollution. The study analyzes existing health data within one, five, and ten miles of the airport, reviews scientific literature on airport-related health effects, and incorporates findings from a University of Washington study on ultrafine particulate matter. It concludes with recommendations for addressing health impacts linked to airport operations.

The North Sea-Tac Park Master Plan Update is a joint planning document produced by King County and the Port of Seattle, prepared by Triangle Associates/Jones & Jones. It outlines recommended updates to the master plan for North Sea-Tac Park, including a phased development program and alternative implementation strategies. The plan reflects a collaborative effort to guide the park's future development in the area surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

This draft planning document outlines west sub-area policies near Sea-Tac Airport, addressing noise impact reduction, environmental concerns, and land use transitions. Key provisions include halting mass property acquisition for noise mitigation, installing sanitary sewers near Miller Creek, controlling stormwater runoff from new airport development, and planting shade trees along local waterways. The document also proposes orderly conversion of single-family residential areas to higher-intensity uses, coordinated with the construction of S.R. 509 as a western boundary for redevelopment.

This exploratory draft outlines a proposed Post Project Coordination Study aimed at ensuring the continued implementation of programs developed under the Sea-Tac Communities Plan. It identifies key areas requiring coordination, including aircraft noise reduction, drainage improvements, community action programs, and land use controls, with principal agencies such as the Port of Seattle and King County playing central roles. The document also highlights the need for legislative advocacy at both the state and federal levels, as well as potential follow-up studies to fully carry out the plan's recommendations.
