This 1999 internal memo from the Washington State Department of Ecology details the history of environmental cleanup oversight at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, where 15 separate contaminated sites involving jet fuel and gasoline were managed individually under the state's Model Toxics Control Act. The memo describes a series of prepaid staff positions funded by the Port of Seattle to coordinate cleanup efforts with airline and pipeline companies, and the challenges in getting formal Agreed Orders signed. It concludes with an update that a key groundwater study Agreed Order was finally signed in May 1999 after receiving over 600 public comments in opposition.

This 1999 health advocacy article raises concerns about air quality near airports, listing dozens of toxic chemicals found in jet exhaust — including benzene, formaldehyde, and 1,3-butadiene — and the serious health conditions linked to prolonged exposure, such as cancer, asthma, and lung disease. It references a 1993 EPA study of Midway Airport finding cancer risks more than 400 times the allowable federal limit, and cites Washington State health data showing elevated cancer rates and doubled rates of childhood respiratory disease near Seattle-Tacoma Airport and Boeing Field. The document was published by areco.org as part of a broader campaign highlighting the public health impacts of airport emissions on surrounding communities.
