    A GIS map centered on the Seattle/South Seattle area showing a north-south oriented elliptical boundary overlay on what appears to be a flight corridor, with numerous purple data points clustered along two parallel tracks within the corridor. The map extends from downtown Seattle southward through Tukwila toward the Sea-Tac Airport area, suggesting this depicts noise complaint locations or flight track concentrations within a defined study zone.

    Airport Advisory Committee 2026 Workplan — City Council Agenda Item, Des Moines, WA

    The Des Moines, WA City Council is reviewing a 2026 workplan for its Airport Advisory Committee, an advisory body created in June 2025 to address issues related to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The workplan focuses primarily on the airport's Sustainable Airport Master Plan (SAMP) and its environmental review process, with the committee advocating for expanded air quality monitoring, a more comprehensive traffic impact analysis, and stronger noise mitigation measures for affected residents. The committee also plans to conduct a community survey in mid-2026 to gauge public awareness of the airport's projected operational growth and its impacts on the Des Moines community.

    Airport Advisory Committee 2026 Workplan

    The Des Moines Airport Advisory Committee's draft 2026 Workplan outlines key priorities including air quality monitoring, the SEA Airport Part 150 noise study, traffic impacts, and projected increases in airport operations. The plan addresses noise mitigation measures and public education related to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's expansion, with 2032 DNL noise contours showing affected residential and commercial areas in Des Moines reaching up to 75 decibels. This workplan reflects the committee's efforts to protect community health and quality of life amid growing airport activity.

    Pilot program for sound insulation repair and replacement passes in Defense bill

    Smith/Murray provide funding. And so many loopholes. The House of Representatives has passed its mandated National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2026. Near the end of the bill is Section 8801, language previously put forward by Congressman Adam Smith WA-9 to allow the FAA to provide grant funding for updates to existing sound insulation

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.
