This 2001 draft report by Parametrix, Inc. describes a water quality study conducted for the Port of Seattle to assess the feasibility of meeting state water quality standards following construction of a third runway at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The study focused on developing a site-specific water-effect ratio (WER) for copper in Miller, Walker, and Des Moines Creeks by conducting toxicity bioassays on stormwater samples collected during storm events. The report summarizes results from initial screening and range-finding phases, with the final site-specific water quality standard still pending completion at the time of publication.

In this March 30, 2001 letter, attorney Kevin L. Stock of Helsell Fetterman writes to Washington State Department of Ecology Director Tom Fitzsimmons on behalf of the Airport Communities Coalition, confirming agreements reached at a March 27 meeting regarding Sea-Tac Airport expansion. The letter asserts that Ecology's 1999 Agreed Order with the Port of Seattle must be fulfilled before a Section 401 water quality certification can legally be issued, and confirms Ecology's commitment to hold a follow-up technical meeting with key staff and legislators present. The ACC argues that strong scientific and legal grounds preclude issuing a defensible 401 certification until the Port completes its obligations under the Agreed Order.

In September 1999, the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency issued an order limiting facility-wide air emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport to less than 99 tons each per any 12-month period. The Port of Seattle is required to monitor fuel usage, calculate monthly emissions using specified factors, and maintain rolling records for at least five years. A March 2001 letter from the Port's Environmental Program Manager confirms emissions were well within limits, with nitrogen oxides typically running 15–17 tons and both carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide at 10 tons or less over the previous 12-month period.
