Meeting Date: June 11, 2019 
Terminal Waste Receptacle
Standardization and
Procurement 

1

Sea-Tac Passenger Growth 
Total Annual Air Passenger Traffic 





Strong demand growth since the existing receptacles were put into service 
2

Previous Standard 
Interior Receptacles 
Challenges 
Small openings  
Bridging 
Small in capacity 
Single unit leads
to pre-mature
emptying 


While addressing some of the Airport's current needs, does not address all needs 
3

What problems are we trying to solve? 


Wide variety of existing conditions. No uniform standard or program. Need a plan forward. 
4

Old Receptacles 
Current challenges
Graphics wear 
Cross-Contamination issues 
Equipment failure
Visual appearance 
Odor problems 


Aged receptacles have reached end of useful life and function poorly 
5

Challenges with current state 
Issues 
Inefficient for staff 
Not a fit for our waste streams 
Failing to meet the current
passenger demand 
Not aligned with our
sustainability initiatives 

Damaged, older receptacles fail to meet the current needs and goals of the Airport 
6

Previous Standard 
Exterior Receptacles 

Challenges
Capacity 
Failing to meet demand 
Design weakness for
the application 


Does not meet the capacity or duty demands for the current application 
7

New Standard Development 
Increased Capacity over previous
standard. 
Heavy duty, yet attractive. 
Bigger openings avoid bridging. 
Front door opening for easy access. 
Slanted top avoids stacking. 
Modular: Interchangeable Flange. 

Standard developed by cross-functional Port staff team

Appendix 


14

Aged Receptacle 
Inefficient and Dysfunctional 
Custodial and Passenger Inefficiency     A Concourse 
Small openings 
- Trash gets stuck 
- Trash piles up on top 
- Appears full when it's not 
Small in capacity 
Inefficient top lid opening 
Inside only supplies thin wire rings to hold liners:
paper clips to hold the waste weight 
Liner falls down, liquid spills out of the case onto
floor 
Receptacle lid lifting and placement challenges
around passengers when it's packed with
passengers 

15

Food Court Receptacles 
Challenges
Opening Arrangement 
Materials of construction
not rugged 
Not consistent or
standard with the
balance of the facility 

While meeting some of the needs of the Food Court areas, do not meet all needs 
16

Landside/Garage Receptacles 
Challenges 
No real standard 
Inherent design weaknesses 
Attract rodents and pests 
Risk of injury for staff 


Staff are deferring purchase of the previous landside standard for garage due to known challenges

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
