    EXH AR026488: Water Quality Assessment Summary — Master Plan Update STIA

    This document outlines a Water Quality Assessment (WQA) conducted in support of the Port of Seattle's Master Plan Update for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (STIA), focused on evaluating the airport's ability to meet water quality requirements under its NPDES permit following construction of a proposed third runway. The assessment uses three approaches: a Water Effect Ratio (WER) study to adjust water quality standards for site-specific conditions, a mixing zone analysis to determine where standards must be met in receiving streams, and an examination of variability in stormwater quality. The goal is to reach agreement with the Washington Department of Ecology on whether aquatic life in nearby receiving streams will be adequately protected.

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.
