    Resolution No. 3683: 2013 FAR Part 150 Noise and Land Use Compatibility Study Update for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

    Resolution No. 3683 is a Port of Seattle Commission decision concluding the 2013 update to the FAR Part 150 Noise and Land Use Compatibility Study for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The resolution directs Port staff to submit updated Noise Exposure Maps to the FAA and adopt a range of noise-reduction measures, including school sound insulation, preferential nighttime runway use, and voluntary rescheduling of short-haul flights. It builds on previous noise studies approved in 1985, 1993, and 2000, following a public comment period and environmental review conducted in 2013.

    In December 2012, the Port of Seattle Commission approved the Century Agenda, a 25-year strategic plan aimed at adding 100,000 jobs, expanding trade and air travel, and reducing the Port's environmental footprint. The plan sets goals including making Seattle-Tacoma International Airport the West Coast's top international gateway, doubling international flights, and cutting air pollutant emissions by 50% from 2005 levels. It also outlines commitments to small business development, energy efficiency, and regional collaboration across Puget Sound ports.

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.
