    SEA Stakeholder Advisory Round Table 2021 update

    The SEA Stakeholder Advisory Round Table (StART) is a forum established by the Port of Seattle in early 2018 to facilitate information sharing between the airport and surrounding communities on issues related to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Developed in consultation with Highline Forum member cities, StART also involves Alaska Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and the FAA. This 2021 update, presented by Port of Seattle staff, recaps the group's meetings and ongoing efforts to address airport community concerns.

    Puget Sound Gateway Program SR 509 Completion Project: Highline Forum Presentation

    The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) presented the Puget Sound Gateway Program to the Highline Forum in November 2020, outlining plans to complete SR 509 in King County and SR 167 in Pierce County. The SR 509 project includes creating a new south access point to Sea-Tac Airport, improving freight connections to the ports of Seattle and Tacoma, and reducing congestion on local roads. The program also proposes tolling as a tool for sustainable congestion management.

    Average number of Horizon Air Q400s proceeding on the westbound 250 degree turn over Burien during full north-flow days

    This October 2020 Seattle-Tacoma International Airport report tracks the average daily number of Horizon Air Q400 turboprop flights making a westbound 250-degree turn over Burien during full north-flow operating days. Data covering July and August of both 2019 and 2020 shows a modest upward trend, with monthly averages ranging from 16 flights per day in summer 2019 to 19 flights per day in August 2020. The document was likely produced in response to community noise concerns about aircraft overflights in the Burien area.

    Average number of Horizon Air Q400s proceeding on the westbound 250 degree turn over Burien during full north-flow days

    This October 27, 2020 document from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport tracks the average daily number of Horizon Air Q400 turboprop aircraft making a westbound 250-degree turn over the city of Burien during full north-flow operating days. Data from July and August of both 2019 and 2020 show daily overflight counts ranging from 10 to 22 aircraft, with monthly averages rising from 16 overflights per day in summer 2019 to 17–19 overflights per day in summer 2020. The records appear intended to document trends in aircraft noise exposure for residents living under that flight path.

    Vincent Mestre, P.E. — Background Information on Airport Noise Monitoring Systems

    This October 2020 presentation by Vincent Mestre, P.E. provides background information on airport noise monitoring systems for the StART (Sea-Tac Airport Roundtable) group, covering the history of such systems dating back to the late 1960s and early 1970s, including Seattle's own monitoring history. It outlines the international standards that guide best practices, such as IEC and ISO guidelines, and explains the core goals of noise monitoring: tracking aircraft-generated noise levels, comparing them against policy guidelines, and using the data to justify mitigation measures that minimize the impact on nearby communities.

Issues

Sea-Tac Airport is currently undergoing the largest and longest expansion in its history, collectively known as the Sustainable Airport Master Plan (SAMP). Some of it you can already hear, but you’re probably not aware of what it all means. Here’s what you need to know.

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.
