More details on the pending Part 150 study at Sea-Tac Airport were released by Port staff member Stan Shepherd at the meeting of the Highline Forum on Thursday, 19 November. We will have an extended posting on this subject by Tuesday.
A couple of points stood out from Mr Shepherd's presentation. (1) The contract with the Port's chosen consultant for the study has not yet been signed, which means that the scope of the study is not yet frozen in stone. (2) There is still no provision for meaningful public participation, unlike the previous study. The closest to public participation will be an invitation to local cities to send their land-use planners to the Technical Review Committee. Otherwise, the role of the public will be to attend presentations & to read hand-outs from the Port & consultant.
