    Technical Report No. 6: Airside Options Evaluation — Airport Master Plan Update for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

    This 1994 technical report, prepared by P&D Aviation for the Port of Seattle, evaluates airside development options for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport as part of a broader Airport Master Plan Update. It examines potential improvements to the existing airfield, analyzes options for adding a third runway, and assesses the operational, cost, and environmental implications of each scenario. The findings cover runway length requirements, projected airfield delays, estimated construction costs, and preliminary environmental screening results.

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.
