    Resolution No. 3245: Reaffirming adoption of a Master Plan Update for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

    Resolution No. 3245 from the Port of Seattle Commission reaffirms approval of a Master Plan Update for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac), authorizing construction of a new third dependent runway, an expanded parking garage, and a new north employee parking lot. The resolution follows years of regional studies, public hearings, and environmental impact reviews concluding that a third runway is necessary to address growing air traffic demand and poor-weather delays caused by the close spacing of the two existing runways. The Port also reaffirms commitments to additional noise reduction measures for surrounding communities, in accordance with Puget Sound Regional Council Resolution A-96-02.

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.
