EXH 355: Decl. Dr. Peter Willing Support ACC Motion for Stay (PCHB Nos. 01-133, 01-160)
This document is a legal declaration by Dr. Peter Willing submitted in support of the Airport Communities Coalition's motion for a stay against the Port of Seattle's water quality certification for construction of a third runway at Sea-Tac Airport. Dr. Willing, a water treatment and water quality expert, argues that the Port's plan to augment low summer stream flows using stored stormwater is an unproven concept lacking necessary design details, manufacturer specifications, or documented precedent. He contends that neither the Department of Ecology nor the Pollution Control Hearings Board had sufficient information to evaluate the plan, leaving serious unresolved concerns about potential violations of Washington State water quality standards. -

Dr. John Strand, a fisheries biologist, submitted this declaration to the Washington Pollution Control Hearings Board challenging the state Department of Ecology's water quality certification for Sea-Tac Airport expansion.
