    Existing (2013) baseline noise exposure contour

    This exhibit from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport 14 CFR Part 150 Study maps the existing 2013 baseline noise exposure contours around Sea-Tac Airport, showing DNL 65, 70, and 75 dBA noise zones across surrounding communities including SeaTac, Burien, Des Moines, and Tukwila. The DNL 65 dBA or greater contour covers approximately 5.9 square miles, encompassing an estimated 1,887 housing units and roughly 4,879 residents, along with 9 noise-sensitive facilities such as schools, churches, and hospitals. Notably, no housing units fall within the higher-impact DNL 70 dBA or above zones, though significant residential and commercial land uses exist within the broader 65 dBA contour area.

    SEPA Determination of Non-Significance (DNS) of Proposed Action: Sea-Tac Airport Part 150 Noise Compatibility Planning Study

    The Port of Seattle issued a State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) Determination of Non-Significance for the Sea-Tac Airport Part 150 Noise Compatibility Planning Study, concluding the plan would not have a significant adverse impact on the environment. The study outlines 23 noise mitigation measures—including limiting nighttime flights, sound-insulating homes and schools, and constructing a Ground Run-Up Enclosure—aimed at reducing aircraft noise for communities surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. A 45-day public comment period was open through May 30, 2013, with the determination signed by Elizabeth Leavitt, Director of Aviation Planning and Environmental Programs.

    Highline Forum Agenda: March 27, 2013

    The Highline Forum is a collaborative body representing Southwest King County cities, schools, and the Port of Seattle that meets to share information and work on regional initiatives. A March 27, 2013 meeting held at SeaTac City Hall focused on transportation topics, including the SR 509 Extension/I-5 Improvement Project and a status update on the Port of Seattle's Part 150 noise study, which directly relates to Sea-Tac Airport noise mitigation policy. The Forum operates by consensus and is governed by procedures that assign the Port of Seattle as the lead disseminator of all Forum-related information.

    Exhibit G-1: Future (2021) NEM/NCP Noise Exposure Contour

    This map, prepared by Landrum & Brown on January 22, 2013 as part of the 14 CFR Part 150 Study for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, shows projected future (2021) noise exposure contours around Sea-Tac Airport at DNL 65, 70, and 75 dBA levels. The contours extend across surrounding communities including SeaTac, Burien, Des Moines, Tukwila, and portions of Renton and Kent, with sensitive land uses such as schools, churches, hospitals, and residential areas identified within the noise impact zones. The study was conducted to inform noise compatibility planning and policy decisions aimed at reducing aviation noise impacts on affected neighborhoods.

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.

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.
