The Port of Seattle released a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) for near-term construction and expansion projects at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, finding that surface transportation would face significant impacts while noise and air quality impacts would remain within legal health standards. A 60-day public comment period runs from May 22 to July 21, 2026, with in-person meetings in SeaTac, Burien, Des Moines, and Federal Way, plus virtual options and multilingual outreach. A Final Environmental Impact Statement is expected by the end of 2026.
