    Exhibit 205: Tom Luster Notes on Call with Ann Kenny re 401/Agreed Order/Governor’s Certification Letter

    In a June 2001 internal memo, Tom Luster notes a call from Ann Kenny of the Washington Department of Ecology regarding the Sea-Tac Airport third runway project. Kenny indicated that Ecology intended to separate the Section 401 water quality certification from the Agreed Order, planning a new study to examine possible contamination pathways from the Airport Operations and Maintenance Area (AOMA) to the third runway site. Luster noted that if called upon for an affidavit, his testimony would reflect his understanding of how the key documents were connected during his time as project reviewer.

    EXH AR019295: Biological Opinion — FWS Sec 7 Consultation STIA Master Plan Update (Bull Trout, Bald Eagle, Marbled Murrelet)

    The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service issued a biological opinion in May 2001 evaluating the potential effects of proposed Master Plan Update Improvements at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport on three protected species: bull trout, bald eagle, and marbled murrelet. The review was conducted under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act at the request of the Federal Aviation Administration, which had determined the project was 'not likely to adversely affect' any of the three species. The opinion covers planned airport development in the cities of SeaTac and Des Moines, along with off-site wetland mitigation near the Green River in Auburn, Washington.

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.
