    Sea-Tac Communities Plan – T.V. Program Transcript

    This is a draft transcript from a Sea-Tac Community Plan television program in which resident Pat Ashcroft and noise researcher Roy Richards of Robin M. Towne & Associates discuss the serious noise impact on communities surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Richards explains that the Port of Seattle and King County sponsored a comprehensive noise study covering approximately 50 square miles around the airport, measuring over 4,200 aircraft takeoff and landing events at 66 monitoring locations. The study aimed both to document the extent of noise exposure and to provide a planning tool for future land use and facility design decisions.

    Exploratory draft: Post project coordination study

    This exploratory draft outlines a proposed Post Project Coordination Study aimed at ensuring the continued implementation of programs developed under the Sea-Tac Communities Plan. It identifies key areas requiring coordination, including aircraft noise reduction, drainage improvements, community action programs, and land use controls, with principal agencies such as the Port of Seattle and King County playing central roles. The document also highlights the need for legislative advocacy at both the state and federal levels, as well as potential follow-up studies to fully carry out the plan's recommendations.

    Draft report of the Land Use Committee: Sea-Tac Communities Plan

    This draft report from the King County Policy Development Commission's Land Use Committee outlines the planning process for the Sea-Tac Communities Plan, a joint effort between King County and the Port of Seattle funded by a $640,000 FAA grant awarded in 1972. The plan aimed to concurrently develop a master plan for Sea-Tac International Airport and a companion land-use plan for surrounding communities most affected by airport noise and operations. A Policy Advisory Committee representing government agencies, consultants, and community groups oversaw the process, which moved through four phases covering data collection, site analysis, alternative plan development, and final recommendations for adoption by both the King County Council and the Seattle Port Commission.

    A land use planning map produced under the Sea-Tac Communities Plan, sponsored by the Port of Seattle and King County, showing zoning categories (residential, commercial, office, airport facility, open space, etc.) for the area surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The legend identifies uses including air terminal/related business, highway-oriented business, community retail, industry, and key circulation features, with a scale bar indicating coverage at 1:500 to 6,000 feet.

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.
