6.   DIVISION, CORPORATE, AND COMMISSION ACTION ITEMS 
Without objection, the Commission advanced to consideration of  
6i.   Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to execute an Omnibus Mutual Aid
Interlocal Agreement with Washington Public Ports Districts to enable members to
provide assistance to each other in preparation for and during emergencies. 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum, Washington Public Port
District Omnibus Mutual Aid Interlocal Agreement, and Western Airports Disaster Operations
Group Mutual Aid Plan. 
Presenter(s): Russ Read, Manager, Seaport Security. 
Mr. Read reported that the agreement has been adopted by ten Washington port districts, including
the Port of Tacoma. The agreement provides for a framework to lend and accept mutual assistance
to and from other Washington ports in case of a catastrophic event, such as a major earthquake. 
The agreement resembles the Western Airports Disaster Operations Group agreement, to which
the Airport is a signatory. The agreement was reviewed by legal counsel and is strictly voluntary.
Under the terms of the agreement, the first eight hours of mutual aid are provided at no cost to the
receiving port. Thereafter, expenditures are based upon actual costs or current equipment rate. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 6i carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Albro, Bryant, Creighton, Gregoire (4) 
Absent for the vote: Bowman 
Following consideration of agenda item 6i, the Commission returned to consideration of  
6a.  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to execute an amendment to the lease and
concession agreement with Anton Airfoods (operated by Host International/HMSHost)

for an additional two years and three months under modified terms and conditions. The
draft lease amendment is attached, substantially as drafted (Exhibit B). 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum, presentation slides, and the
first amendment to the lease and concession agreement. 
Presenter(s): Deanna Zachrisson, Business Leader, Airport Dining and Development. 
The Commission received one comprehensive presentation on items 6a, 6b, and 6c that included
the following relevant information: 
The Airport Dining and Retail (ADR) lease phasing plan lays the groundwork for future
leasing opportunities  in the ADR program  and is oriented toward the passenger
customer. The plan provides for staggered lease expirations over several years to avoid
widespread closures in 2017, when 60 leases are due to expire. Staggering leases
preserves provision of services to passengers and steady revenue to the Port. It also
provides employment stability to the 1,600 jobs supported by the ADR program. 
All units are subject to competition, but competition will be delayed in some cases. The
plan calls for early return of 13 concessions units and extension of 27 units by lease
amendment or new leases to reduce the number of leases expiring between 2017 and
2019 from 60 to 22. 
To ensure that all stakeholders are fully informed, ADR staff has conducted individual and
group meetings with all tenants regarding the long-term plans for their units and locations. 
Anthony'srestaurant is operated by HMS Host under the dba Anton Airfoods. Staff
intends to extend the Anthony'slease by 2 years and 3 months, to September 2017,
bringing the total lease term to 12 years and 3 months. Current five-year options would 
be eliminated and rent would increase from 8 percent to 10.5 percent of gross sales. 
Host International, a master concessionaire, will return six units early. These become
available for new leases between 2015 and 2017. No reimbursement for these units is
planned. Six Host/Seattle Restaurant Association units will expire on time on December
31, 2016. Ten new leases would be executed for concessions concepts exclusive to
Host, including Starbucks Coffee.  The lease changes for Host include additional
investment by Host and higher rent. 
Hudson's large tenant package will be divided into two smaller packages to be awarded 
separately.  The first package, expiring in 2022, will consist of six units and two
NorthSTAR-limited duration units. The second package, expiring in 2024, will consist of
nine units. Hudson will return seven units early, which will be leased between 2015 and
2016, with no reimbursement of remaining value. Hudson's reinvestment will result in
increased rent. 
In the ensuing discussion, Commissioners noted the introduction of lease phasing and long-term
opportunities and continuity for the ADR program not previously built into the concessions program.
The month-to-month nature of lease holdovers and tenant notices were discussed. Commissioners
noted the impact of current litigation and the rationale behind extension of the lease with Anthony's
rather than holding it over in a month-to-month arrangement. Although Quality Jobs provisions will
not apply to lease extensions, it was noted that Host and Hudson already provide compensation

and benefits that exceed the Quality Jobs standards. The importance of outreach by staff to
tenants and subtenants affected by lease transitions and hold-overs was strongly emphasized.
Commissioners stressed the need for consistency in treatment of tenants regardless of the legal
environment and the need for proactive outreach to the community, particularly small, local, and
disadvantaged business enterprises. 
There was a discussion on the value and clarity of analysis and communication to the Commission
from the ADR program. It was questioned whether the criteria used to evaluate leases is
sufficiently objective to withstand litigation risks. Commissioner Creighton expressed a lack of
confidence in the analysis behind staff's lease proposals in agenda items 6a, 6b, and 6c, despite
his support of the ultimate outcome. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 6a carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Albro, Bryant, Gregoire (3) 
Abstaining: Creighton 
Absent for the vote: Bowman 
6b.  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to: (1) amend the current lease and
concession agreements with Host International and Seattle Restaurant Associates to
remove eight units and provide for the early return of six units, and (2) execute a new
lease and concession agreement with Host International to operate ten food service
locations at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport for a term that will expire in 2023. 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum, presentation slides, and the
Host/Seattle Restaurant Associates phasing plan for 2015-2023. 
Presenter(s): Deanna Zachrisson, Business Leader, Airport Dining and Development. 
The comprehensive presentation for agenda items 6a, 6b, and 6c is described above under
agenda item 6a. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 6b carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Albro, Bryant, Gregoire (3) 
Abstaining: Creighton 
Absent for the vote: Bowman 
6c.  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to: (1) amend the lease and concession
agreement with Airport Management Services LLC (Hudson) to remove 14 units and
provide for the early return of seven units; (2) terminate a separate lease and
concession agreement with Airport Management Services LLC covering the "Hudson
Marketplace" unit; and (3) execute two new lease and concession agreements with
Airport Management Services LLC for the continued operation of convenience retail
and specialty retail. The first lease and concession agreement will include seven
convenience retail locations and one specialty retail location for a term that will expire

in 2022. The second lease and concession agreement will include seven convenience
retail locations and two specialty retail locations for a term that will expire in 2024. 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum, presentation slides, and the
Hudson phasing plan. 
Presenter(s): Deanna Zachrisson, Business Leader, Airport Dining and Development. 
The comprehensive presentation for agenda items 6a, 6b, and 6c is described above under
agenda item 6a. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 6b carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Albro, Bryant, Gregoire (3) 
Abstaining: Creighton 
Absent for the vote: Bowman 
6d.  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to implement (1) a five-year spending plan
of $64,088,000 for the Environmental Remediation Liability (ERL) Program for the
Seaport, Real Estate, and Aviation Divisions for 2015-2019; and (2) environmental
remediation liabilities funds for 2015 in the amount of $36,804,000, of which (a)
$16,804,000 is forecasted to be spent in 2015 and (b) an amount estimated not to
exceed $20,000,000 of the remaining funds approved in the five-year plan will be
obligated during 2015 to be spent in future years. 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum, ERL Sites Seaport North
map, ERL Sites Seaport South map, and ERL Sites Aviation map. 
Presenter(s): Kathy Bahnick, Manager, Environmental Programs, Seaport Environmental; Don
Robbins, Senior Environmental Program Manager, Aviation Environmental Programs; and Dan
Thomas, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer. 
The use of the funds requested for 2015 was described. Environmental investigation, design, clean-up,
and monitoring covered in the annual authorization includes provisions for existing and new mitigation
projects at sites throughout the Port's division portfolios. The status of projects at Terminals 30, 91, and
117, Lora Lake Apartments, and the Lower Duwamish Waterway were summarized. 
The request authorizes funding of $16,804,000 for project execution in 2015; approximately
$20 million that can be obligated during 2015 to be spent in future years; and describes planned
spending of $64,088,000 between 2015 and 2019. The five-year spending plan is included to
provide visibility into the level of resources expected to be required over the next five years to
mitigate environmental liabilities. The single annual authorization in this form provides greater
efficiency in executing multi-year contracts. Additional Commission authorization is required to
enter into new legal commitments such as agreed orders with the state's Department of Ecology.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2014 
Commissioners noted that the tax levy is used to fund environmental mitigation because these
efforts are for the general public good. Other funding sources are also pursued. Most of the
spending for 2015 has already been booked under the expense category. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 6d carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Albro, Bryant, Creighton, Gregoire (4) 
Absent for the vote: Bowman 
6e.  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to advertise for and award a contract to
construct Phase One of the South Satellite Interior Renovations project at Seattle-
Tacoma International Airport using a combination of a major contract and Port
resources. This request is for an amount not to exceed $950,000 of a total estimated
project cost of $5,167,000. 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum. 
Presenter(s): Wayne Grotheer, Director, Aviation Project Management Group, and Nick Harrison,
Senior Manager, Airport Operations. 
The nature of the work to be performed and the support of various airlines was described. The South
Satellite has one of the Airport's oldest interiors and its restrooms become crowded during peak hours. 
The motion for approval of agenda item 6e carried by the following vote: 
In favor: Albro, Bryant, Creighton, Gregoire (4) 
Absent for the vote: Bowman 
6f.   Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to increase the budget for the S1 Ramp
project by $200,000. The new authorized total project cost will be $1,405,000. 
Request document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum. 
Presenter(s): Wayne Grotheer, Director, Aviation Project Management Group, and Nick Harrison,
Senior Manager, Airport Operations. 
It was reported that the purpose of the project is to accommodate remote hardstand parking of
aircraft and provide access for remotely parked passengers to the terminal level of the South
Satellite. Accessibility for wheelchairs and other wheeled items is necessary. Special equipment,
including a lift truck, accessible high-capacity buses, and a passenger ramp are needed to
successfully move passengers in remote hardstand operations. The budget increase is due to
receipt of only one bid to construct the ramp. Despite receiving only one bid, staff recommends
executing the contract with the sole bidder due to the urgency of the project and current
construction market conditions.

7.   STAFF BRIEFINGS 
7a.  Annual Government Relations Briefing for 2015. 
Presentation document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum. 
Presenter(s): Beth Osborne, Manager, Federal Government Relations; Clare Gallagher, Manager,
State Government Relations; and Mike Merritt, Manager, Puget Sound Government Relations. 
Accomplishments in 2014 and areas of continued focus for 2015 in the area of Government
Relations activities and advocacy were described. It was noted that officials at all levels of
government have responded positively to the work of the ports of Seattle and Tacoma to form a
Seaport Alliance. 
Past areas of focus continue to be followed closely with regard to Harbor Maintenance Tax reform,
Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization, restrictions on passenger facility charges, TIGER
(Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery) funding for Port projects, and harbor
deepening. 
Government relations will monitor progress in 2015 on a statewide transportation package that
would include funding for completion of SR-509 and SR-167 and improvements for other key trade
corridors. The state Marine Tourism bill will be followed closely, as will legislation to fund statewide
tourism promotion. Opportunities for federal advocacy for Puget Sound Gateway competitiveness
and the recapitalization of the Alaska fishing fleet will be areas of interest in 2015. 
Collaboration with local agencies was strong in 2014 and included participation in Mayor Ed
Murray's Maritime and Industrial Summit. The summit catalyzed efforts surrounding promotion of
industrial development, preservation of industrial lands, and freight transportation improvements.
The Port was engaged in helpful updates to the City of Seattle Shoreline Master Plan and
formation of the SoDo Business Improvement District. In 2015, staff will closely follow
developments in the City's seawall replacement and Central Waterfront planning,as well as the
launch of a City freight master plan. 
In 2015, the Port will create its own stormwater utility and will begin payments toward its
$300 million contribution to the Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement project. It is expected that
payment obligations by agency partners in the transfer of the Eastside Rail Corridor will be
concluded in 2015. 
Commissioner Albro was absent after 3:15 p.m. 
7b.  2014 Third Quarter Capital Improvement Projects Report. 
Presentation document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum, presentation slides, and
2014 Third Quarter Report. 
Presenter(s): Ralph Graves, Managing Director, Capital Development. 

Minutes of December 9, 2014, proposed for approval on July 14, 2015.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2014 
Mr. Graves reported on the status of capital improvement projects, noting variances to schedule
and budget. Automation -related projects managed by Information and Communications
Technology are also tracked in this report, which outlined 101 projects. There are 63 projects within
or ahead of target schedule and budget. Thirty-three projects are over budget or behind schedule
for various reasons. These are inclusive of variances reported in the past. Progress is being made
toward Capital Development Division goals for reducing variances. The goal for projects to be both
on schedule and within budget is 60 percent of total projects; the goal for projects to have negative
variances in both schedule and budget is zero. 
Specific projects highlighted included Central Plant Pre-Conditioned Air, Cargo 2 West Cargo
Hardstand together with Cargo 6 Enhancements, the Doug Fox Site Improvements, Long-Term
Cell Phone Lot, Airport-Wide Mechanical Control System, Emergency Lighting, Eighth Floor
Weatherproofing, and Central Terminal Expansion Freight Elevator. Progress on street vacations
has been slow, requiring budget transfers to facilitate the work. 
7c.  Aviation Standby Power Facility. 
Presentation document(s) included a Commission agenda memorandum and presentation slides. 
Presenter(s): David Soike, Director, Aviation Facilities and Capital Programs, and Trevor Emtman,
Senior Systems Engineer/Utility Business Manager, Aviation Facilities and Infrastructure. 
The electrical demands of the Airport and its vulnerability to power loss due to natural disaster or
electrical grid outage were summarized. Key risk elements include dependence on a single
Bonneville Power Administration substation, energy usage peaks during the summer, and the
current provision of only enough back-up power to support limited life and safety functions. Current
back-up energy capacity is inadequate to maintain reasonable customer service levels during an
emergency. Aircraft would have the ability in an emergency to maintain air conditioning and other
systems by using auxiliary power units, essentially running their engines to remove their energy
needs from the amount of electricity the Airport would need to generate in such situations. 
Standby power capability during a regional disaster event would secure the Airport's role as a
critical regional asset for emergency response and prolonged support for regional communities. A
single standby power generating facility could be built to provide power to the entire Airport. The
most likely location is south of the Airport near 188th Street, east of the present fuel farm.
Generators could be used that could run on regular diesel fuel or jet fuel from the fuel farm. 
The size, capacity, response time, and cost of a standby power facility were summarized. The
proposed project delivery system for the estimated $37.2 million project would be pursuant to the
requirements of RCW 39.04.290. A two -step performance-specification competitive procurement
process would be used. This method permits discovery of innovative solutions and expedites
construction as well. 
The standby power facility concept will be presented for a third time to the Airline-Airport Affairs
Committee early in 2015, and assuming a positive majority-in-interest vote of the airlines, could

progress to the design phase in early 2016. On this schedule, the project would be complete by
mid-2017. 
8.   NEW BUSINESS 
8a.  Announcement of the Record of Decision for the Duwamish Waterway Clean-up. 
Stephanie Jones-Stebbins, Director, Seaport Environmental and Planning, reported that the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency released a Record of Decision on December 2, 2014, regarding
the Lower Duwamish Waterway Superfund site. The Record of Decision describes the EPA's plan
for clean-up of the Lower Duwamish River. The EPA acknowledged early action efforts by the Port
and its partners. These efforts amount to approximately $190 million in studies and environmental
mitigation. It is expected that more fish and shellfish from the Duwamish will be edible, although the
river is unlikely to produce an unlimited amount of seafood. Efforts by King County and the City of
Seattle were recently announced to extend mitigation efforts beyond the Superfund site to
encompass the entire watershed.
