The Industrial Wastewater System (IWS) at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport was built in 1963 to collect and treat runoff from airport aprons, taxiways, hangars, and maintenance areas that may be contaminated by fuel spills, de-icing chemicals, and aircraft wash water. The system channels wastewater through two main drainage areas to an on-site treatment plant, with treated water ultimately discharged into Puget Sound under an NPDES permit. Ongoing upgrades aim to expand the system's capacity to handle a 25-year design storm event.

This technical document describes hydrological modeling conducted for the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac) Master Plan Update, focusing on stormwater runoff analysis for Des Moines Creek, Miller Creek, and Walker Creek subbasins. It details the calibration of computer models using rainfall and evaporation data spanning October 1948 through September 1996, along with parameters for airport embankment fill materials. The analysis was used to evaluate future stormwater detention facility requirements associated with airport expansion projects, including the Third Runway.
