    EXH AR023714: Email Martha Choe (CTED) to Tom — 401 Permit Concerns Third Runway

    A April 25, 2000 email from Martha Choe of the Washington State Community, Trade and Economic Development office to a colleague at the Department of Ecology summarizes concerns raised by the Port of Seattle regarding delays in obtaining a 401 water quality permit for Sea-Tac Airport's proposed third runway. Key issues include the FAA's unfamiliarity with Endangered Species Act requirements after taking over the review from the Army Corps of Engineers, King County's slow progress on stormwater documentation, and formatting problems that caused further delays. The email warns that if the permit is not issued by July 21, 2000, the third runway's inclusion in the regional transportation plan—and its federal funding eligibility—could be jeopardized.

Read This!

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.
