Addressing community health concerns around SeaTac Airport: Response to the question, ‘Is it possible to monitor jet engine exhaust emissions or to model their path using data on prevailing winds and takeoff patterns?’
This March 2000 report, prepared by Washington State health and environmental agencies, addresses community health concerns about air quality around Seattle-Tacoma (Sea-Tac) Airport by examining whether jet engine exhaust emissions can be monitored or modeled using wind and takeoff data. It outlines recommendations for conducting a comprehensive air quality study, including monitoring methods, data analysis approaches, and estimated costs, while also considering health impacts and environmental justice issues for nearby residents. The report was developed in consultation with public health officials, community representatives, the EPA, and local universities. -
