ACTION REQUESTED 
Request Commission 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. 
SYNOPSIS 
As a major industrial and commercial land owner, the Port has significant environmental cleanup
liabilities due to historic contamination of its properties. 
Since 1993, the Port has booked liabilities to recognize these obligations. While Port
environmental cleanup projects typically span several years, more complex projects have
been active for over 15 years. 
From 2009 to 2013, the amount spent under the annual ERL authorizations was 
$59,008,000. 
The $16,804,000 requested spending authorization for 2015 will allow continuation of ongoing
environmental investigation, testing, analysis, design, cleanup, and monitoring for active sites
and will initiate similar activities for new sites, as noted in this memorandum. The authorization
to obligate $20,000,000 in 2015 will allow the Port to enter into contracts for continuing this
work in future years, as much of this work spans multiple years. Prior to actual spending of
these obligated funds, Commission budget approval will be needed, likely through a future
annual ERL authorization. 

Template revised May 30, 2013.

The approval of the five-year plan gives greater visibility to our projected upcoming
environmental remediation liability spending. In addition, the authorization to enter multi-year
contracts and service directives allows the Port to more efficiently contract for work of multiyear
duration. Funds projected for years beyond 2015 will not be spent until authorized by a
future Commission action (i.e., next year's ERL spending authorization). 
BACKGROUND 
The Port has identified a number of contaminated sites on Seaport, Real Estate and Aviation
properties that must be investigated and remediated in compliance with federal and state
environmental laws and regulations. In some cases, the Port has been designated by the federal
government as a "Potentially Responsible Party" (PRP), and/or by the state government as a
"Potentially Liable Party" (PLP) for the investigation and cleanup of properties owned by the
Port or where the Port may have contributed to site contamination. 
Although the Port may not bear ultimate liability for the contamination, under federal and state
law, the Port is presumptively liable as the property owner, and it is often practically and
financially beneficial for the Port to take initial responsibility to manage and pay for the cleanup. 
In many cases, the Port has successfully recovered and/or will seek recovery from other
responsible parties for Port-incurred investigation and cleanup costs. The Port also has been
successful in receiving Model Toxics Control Act (MTCA) grant funds to pay part of the cleanup
costs. The Port's goals are to cost-effectively complete this environmentally responsible work
and to maximize work accomplished by or paid for by the parties responsible for the conditions
encountered (or others, such as insurance companies, who represent them).
To mitigate such environmental expenditures, the Port also encourages, coordinates with, and
oversees the investigation and cleanup of sites by other responsible parties, to assure that legal
requirements are met and that Port liabilities are minimized. Regardless of whether the Port
conducts the investigation and remediation directly, or oversees the proper performance of that
work by other responsible parties, the Port provides a valuable public benefit by acting as a
catalyst in expediting appropriate environmental management of these sites. 
Accounting rules require that the Port "book" or establish a liability on its balance sheet for
environmental remediation when the Port's obligation meets specified definitions of certainty and
the liability amount can be reasonably estimated. When an environmental remediation liability is
booked, an expense is also recorded in the current period for the future expenditures. The Port
develops its environmental remediation liability forecasts in compliance with Government
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 49 "Accounting and Financial Reporting
for Pollution Remediation Obligations." 
Environmental liability expenditures are authorized in one of two ways: 
1.  If the environmental costs are incurred in the course of, or incidental to, a construction
project, the Commission authorization occurs as part of the authorization for the overall
construction project. Examples of this include asbestos removal, offsite soil disposal
during construction, or upland dredge material disposal.

COMMISSION AGENDA 
Ted Fick, Chief Executive Officer 
December 1, 2014 
Page 3 of 15 
2.  If the environmental cost is not associated with a capital construction project or
maintenance (including asbestos and lead), but is a stand-alone pollution remediation
project, the expenditure is authorized through one annual action. 
Since 1993, the Commission has approved annual environmental expenditures. In addition,
Commission authorization is obtained prior to entering into legal commitments for investigation
or cleanup actions, such as an Agreed Order, Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) or
Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent (ASAOC) referred to as Orders.
Under the Orders, the Port is required to pay agency oversight costs. Further, to the extent
required by Resolution No. 3605, as amended by Resolution No. 3628, Central Procurement
Office contract actions in support of approved environmental projects may require additional
Commission authorization. 
PROJECT JUSTIFICATION AND DETAILS 
Consistent with past practices, the duration of the authorization continues to be an annual
spending authorization. However, since 2011, the authorization requests have also provided a
rolling five-year spending plan to reflect the level of resources expected to be required over the
next five years. Executing contract obligations for a longer duration minimizes the need to
rework all contract amendments and service directives that are aligned with the end-of-year
authorization. It also provides greater visibility of the environmental liability costs. 
The environmental investigation and remediation actions described below are generally required
under federal and/or state law, exceptions are noted. Remedial actions continue to focus on costeffective
study, analysis, and implementation of cleanup actions; coordination with capital
planning, design, and construction; and negotiation with agencies, tenants, other PRPs and
insurance companies. 
Project Objectives: 
Perform the remediation work at the various sites in accordance with the various agreed
orders. 
Manage and perform the work, with project controls and contract systems in place. 
Identify and consider community values and concerns as part of the various public
participation plans. 
Remediation investigations, designs and implementations will be carried out in a manner
that considers current and potential uses for the sites. 
Maximize cost recovery 
Scope of Work 
Seaport Sites/Projects 
Lower Duwamish Waterway Superfund  The Lower Duwamish Waterway (LDW) is a Federal 
and State Superfund Site. The Lower Duwamish Work Group (LDWG), consisting of the Port,
the City of Seattle, King County and Boeing, has completed a Remedial Investigation and
Feasibility Study (RI/FS) of the Waterway under Order with the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) and the Department of Ecology (Ecology). The Port is the contracting agent for
the RI/FS and Fisher Study for the LDWG.

COMMISSION AGENDA 
Ted Fick, Chief Executive Officer 
December 1, 2014 
Page 4 of 15 
The final FS was issued October 2012 and EPA's Proposed Plan was issued for public
review and comment in late February 2013. 
Public comment on the Proposed Plan closed in June 2013 and will be used by EPA to
develop its Record of Decision for the final cleanup plan.
EPA will issue the Record of Decision in late 2014, after seeking concurrence from
Ecology. In 2014, as part of the ongoing FS design, LDWG initiated a year-long Fisher
Study to determine who is using the river for fishing. In addition, LDWG  has scoped a
carbon amendment pilot study which will begin the end of 2014 and be completed in
2020.  With funding through an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) with Ecology, the Port is 
conducting stormwater line cleanouts on Port-owned properties along the LDW, which is 
expected to be completed in 2015. 
Terminal 117 Sediments, Bank and Uplands  As part of the Lower Duwamish Waterway
Superfund effort, EPA identified several sediment hot spots that warranted early cleanup action
as an Early Action Area (EAA), including the Port's Terminal 117 (T-117) in South Park. 
The EPA issued the 2010 Action Memorandum for T-117 that identified the EPA-
selected cleanup action.
The latest EPA Order for T-117 removal design and removal action (RD/RA) was signed
by the Port and City on June 9, 2011.
EPA approved the final design on October 15, 2012. The removal action was contracted
in June 2013 and is ongoing.
A majority of the cleanup has been completed, and a minor, remaining portion is
anticipated to be completed by the first half of 2015. The next step will be to monitor the
site to verify the remedial goals continue to be met. 
Terminal 108  As part of the effort to control sources of contamination to the LDW, the LDWG
identified potential source sites that could require early cleanup action. One such site is located
in the sediments adjacent to Terminal 108. Ecology requested, and the Port voluntarily agreed, to
perform additional investigation of the groundwater. The groundwater study determined that the
groundwater is not a source of contaminants to the river. However, additional contamination
was discovered on the site that may generate additional sampling requirements. As part of an 
ILA with Ecology, the Port is planning to conduct a bank stabilization pilot study at Terminal
108 as an independent action. 
Terminal 115  The Port has been conducting a continuing program to remove small amounts of
free product (petroleum) from groundwater caused by two leaking underground tanks that were
removed from the southwest portion of the terminal. Investigative groundwater monitoring is
also continuing. Soils are marginally contaminated at the active card-lock fueling site; cleanup is
not required by regulatory agencies at this time. 
Activities at this site also include coordination with Ecology on source control efforts required as
part of the LDW RI/FS process. The Port has conducted an Environmental Conditions
investigation for the entire property. Ecology has developed a Source Control Action Plan for
T115 based partially on their review of the Environmental Conditions investigation.

Terminal 115 North  In late January 2009, the Port received from Ecology a Notice of Potential
MTCA Liability. Ecology has focused on this site because it is located adjacent to Glacier Bay,
one of the high priority sediment sites (Glacier Bay) within the Lower Duwamish Superfund site.
Glacier Bay is located north of Terminal 115. On November 2, 2010, the Commission authorized
entering into a MTCA Order for this site, under which the Port will further characterize the site
and develop a draft cleanup action plan. Since then, the scope of work for the remedial
investigation has been finalized and the field work is being performed under the Ecologyapproved
schedule. 
Terminal 5 Ecology State Cleanup Sites  In the past, as part of the Terminal 5 Southwest
Harbor redevelopment, the Port completed remediation at four sites under three Consent Decrees
with Ecology. Current obligations include on-going cap inspection and maintenance of the cap
in the four areas, and coordination and review of the future adjacent sediment cleanup work to be
performed by Lockheed. 
Terminal 5 Pacific Sound Resources (PSR) EPA Superfund Site  This site was cleaned up under
an Order with EPA as part of the Terminal 5 Southwest Harbor redevelopment project. Ongoing
obligations include continuing to perform required cap inspection and cap maintenance, product
recovery activities and monitoring EPA activities related to the groundwater and the off shore
sediments.
Harbor Island Superfund Site Soil and Groundwater Operable Unit  Terminal 18 is located
within this Superfund site. Cleanup of this site was performed under a Consent Decree with
EPA. Long-term groundwater monitoring is being performed by the group consultant under a
PRP agreement. Long-term cap maintenance and inspections have been initiated as required
under the Record of Decision.
Harbor Island Superfund Site East Waterway Sediments Operable Unit  In 2006, the Port
signed an Order with EPA for a final Supplemental Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study
(SRI/FS), and a Memorandum of Agreement with the City of Seattle and King County to share
costs and cooperate in the SRI/FS process.
The Port is acting as the contracting agent for this work.
A settlement agreement with Seattle Iron Metals was negotiated for their contribution to
the SRI/FS costs. We are currently conducting the SRI/FS tasks identified in the EPA
Order and subsequent work plans. 
The draft final RI was submitted in early 2013 and the final remedial investigation was
submitted in September 2013. 
A draft Feasibility Study was submitted in sections in early 2014 and finalization is
expected in 2015. 
The Port is also conducting source control work, as required by EPA under the ASAOC.
In 2014, this will include some additional stormwater line cleanouts. 
Terminal 30 Oil Cleanup  Terminal 30 is a former Chevron bulk storage site. Since the 1990's,
the Port has removed significant amounts of free product and conducted an extensive
groundwater-monitoring program. A draft Cleanup Action Plan (CAP) was submitted to Ecology
and we are negotiating a Consent Decree to perform the work. Both the draft CAP and Consent

COMMISSION AGENDA

Page 6 of 15 
Decree will need to go out for public comment. Once the CAP is finalized and the Consent
Decree signed in early 2015, the design for the cleanup system will begin. 
Terminal 10 Lockheed  Lockheed previously performed the upland and sediment cleanup
required at the site. The Port's continuing obligation is to maintain the upland cap and the
habitat restoration area, manage any contaminated soil and groundwater encountered or removed
during redevelopment or maintenance activities, and to protect Lockheed's groundwater
monitoring wells. Under the Terminal 10 Uplands capital project, storm water drainage and
upland cap improvements were completed in early 2012. Long term stormwater solids sampling
was initiated after the capital project as a condition of EPA approval.
Terminals 103/104/105/107  These sites have been identified by Ecology as having source
control data gaps in relation to the Lower Duwamish Waterway Superfund site.
Terminal 106 Warehouse Building  The former warehouse building contains five underground
storage tanks (USTs) and some cement kiln dusts (CKD) fill material. During future site
development or improvements, UST decommissioning and limited soil remediation will be
required 
Natural Resource Damages (NRD) Habitat Restoration  Superfund liability for LDW and
Harbor Island sediments also includes injury to natural resources from contamination.
The Port is negotiating with the Elliott Bay Trustee Council (Trustees) for a settlement of
these liabilities that will likely include habitat restoration as a component.
June 7, 2011, the Commission approved the design and permitting of an expanded
restoration project at Terminal 117.  The design work for the restoration is nearing
completion and we have applied for permits.
A credit letter was received from the Trustees that document the NRD value of the T117
habitat project as currently designed. 
After receipt of permits and permit conditions are identified, staff will be coming back to
Commission to request authorization to bid, award and construct the habitat project. 
Real Estate Sites 
Terminal 91 Cleanup  Investigation and cleanup of this site is being administered by Ecology 
under a State Dangerous Waste Permit and a MTCA Order.
The draft Feasibility Study (FS) went out for public comment December 2009 and was
finalized with no changes.
A draft Cleanup Action Plan (CAP), which identifies the cleanup approach selected by
Ecology, and State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) checklist went out for public
comment October 2010 and was finalized.
A new MTCA Order for performance of the cleanup was issued in the spring of 2012.
The design has been approved by Ecology.
On August 6, 2013, the Commission approved the CEO to advertise and execute a major
construction project and to self-perform using Port crews, to implement the cleanup
action required by the Order.

COMMISSION AGENDA 
Ted Fick, Chief Executive Officer 
December 1, 2014 
Page 7 of 15 
The self-performed cleanup work on Pier 91 has now been completed. The main cleanup in the
former tank farm area is being performed and should be complete toward the end of December.
After completion of the cleanup, the long term groundwater monitoring and O&M will begin.
Investigation and cleanup of discrete units continues. Limited sediment investigation and
possible removal action may be performed in 2015 in support of maintenance dredging. 
Fishermen's Terminal  The Port has removed contaminated soils in the uplands, capped the
uplands as a voluntary cleanup measure, and is conducting a continuing program of investigative
groundwater monitoring at and near the Fishing Vessel Owners tenant site. Some dredging of
contaminated sediments occurred as part of the Docks 5-10 renewal and replacement and berth
dredging project. An assessment of site-wide contamination is planned. 
Terminal 5 CEM Ecology State Cleanup Sites Site  In addition to the four sites listed under
Seaport sites, as part of the T-5 redevelopment, the Port purchased the old West Seattle Landfill
and installed an environmental cap and a methane collection system. These systems require
long-term operation and maintenance, inspection, and reporting, which is continuing. 
Aviation Sites/Projects 
Aircraft Fuel Farms and Fueling Systems  Five underground aircraft fueling systems were
constructed and operated by individual airlines beginning in the early 1960s. As of January 2007,
each of these systems has been decommissioned. Appropriate environmental cleanup has been
achieved for three of the systems and is in progress for two others. Long-term monitoring
continues as noted below: 
Remediation of an area impacted by operations of the former United Airlines and Continental
Airlines fuel farms is anticipated to continue into 2015 with confirmation monitoring to
follow. The Port is a member of the PLP group for this multiple-source site. 
The Northwest Airlines and Pan Am Airlines systems have been appropriately remediated,
but continue to require monitoring. The Port (as a result of Pan Am Airlines bankruptcy) and
Delta Airlines (successor by merger to Northwest Airlines) will continue to monitor the
former Pan Am and Northwest systems in the context of the STIA Ground Water Study,
described below. 
STIA Ground Water Study  In May 1999, the Port and Ecology executed an MTCA Order that
required that the Port conduct a study of ground water conditions in the uppermost regional
aquifer in the vicinity of the Airport. The study has been completed. 
The results demonstrate that there is little potential for Airport operations to impact
ground water conditions beyond the Airport boundary, or threaten local ground water
receptors (public drinking water supplies, creeks, etc.). 
Ecology accepted the study findings and designated the Port's obligations under the
Agreed Order as complete.
Ecology and the Port have agreed to a plan for long-term ground water monitoring to
confirm the results of the models used in the study.

Page 8 of 15 
Under the terms of a responsible party agreement, Delta Airlines will implement the monitoring
program on behalf of the Port and several rental car tenants. We anticipate completion of longterm
monitoring in 2015. 
Lora Lake Apartments  On July 10, 2009, the Port and Ecology executed a MTCA Order that
required the Port to conduct a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (RI/FS) for the
cleanup of the Lora Lake Apartment Property. 
Submitted to Ecology in January 2012, the RI/FS report presented the findings of
investigations and analysis of cleanup alternatives. 
January 2013, these documents were subsequently revised to address Ecology's
comments and accepted for public comment.
A follow-on Consent Decree to complete the cleanup was negotiated in 2013. 
The initial public comment period on the RI/FS and Consent Decree ended on November
25, 2013 and was extended to January 15, 2014.
Ecology is reviewing comments received from the public and we expect them to make a final 
determination on the remedy by the end of 2014 or early 2015. An additional public comment
period on changes made to the documents is currently scheduled to occur in early 2015.Upon
finalization of the Consent Decree remedial design, including extensive field sampling and
analysis will take place in 2015, 2016, and 2017. Remediation would then take place in 2018.

Budget Status and Source of Funds 
Environmental cleanup projects have multiple funding sources: (1) Seaport non-operating
projects and Real Estate operating and non-operating projects are funded by the Port's Tax Levy;
(2) Seaport operating projects are funded by the General Fund; (3) Airport projects are funded by
the Airport Development Fund. In addition, there are supplementary outside sources of funding,
including the following: 
Cash from third parties - Payment from cost sharing or contribution agreements with other
potentially liable parties (PLPs), where the Port functions as a funding conduit for the other
PLPs and the Port holds contracts on behalf of these other PLPs. 
Litigation settlements with other PLPs. 
Insurance recoveries from both the Port's insurers and other PLPs' insurers. 
Interlocal Agreement with Department of Ecology for source control activities in the amount
of $2,000,000. 
Grants. 
o The existing projects have received MTCA grants: T91 Cleanup for $3,000,000. 
o New grants for Terminal 117 Sediments, Bank and Uplands for $13,100,000 and Lora Lake
for $5,000,000. 
STRATEGIES AND OBJECTIVES 
Environmental remediation projects define and minimize to acceptable levels threats to the
environment caused by prior Port operations, prior tenant operations, and by the historical effects
of industrial activity on properties acquired by the Port. Generally, the result of these efforts, as
well as the attendant compliance with regulatory mandates, management of Port liabilities, and
support of the local community, aligns with the goals and objectives of the Century Agenda and
Seaport, Aviation, and Real Estate Division Business Plans. 
TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE 
Economic Development 
Cleanup of contaminated sites helps bring sites back to a more productive use and supports 
possible re-development. Cleanup reduces and may eliminate restrictions on future land uses,
protects tenants and Port workers who occupy the site, and allows for broader re-development
options and maximize site use. 
Environmental Responsibility 
State and federal laws require elimination of unacceptable levels of environmental risk caused by
the presence of contaminants in soil, groundwater and sediment. Project planning and design
efforts will consider and incorporate opportunities for materials reuse, recycling, and/or
reduction. Implementation of cleanup remedies will include significant environmental controls
and performance monitoring to ensure public health and safety.

COMMISSION AGENDA 
Ted Fick, Chief Executive Officer 
December 1, 2014 
Page 10 of 15 
Community Benefits 
Elimination of unacceptable levels of environmental risk caused by the presence of contaminants
in upland soil, in marine sediments, and groundwater is the hallmark of responsible
environmental stewardship, from the perspectives of both the surrounding residential and
business communities and the customers that we serve. 
The environmental remediation authorization will fund a mix of Port staff and outside consultant
services and contractors that maximizes the effectiveness of staff resources. 
ALTERNATIVES AND IMPLICATIONS CONSIDERED 
The following alternatives were considered for accomplishing the work described above: 
Alternative 1) 
Do not complete the work. If the Port chose not to complete the work, federal and/or state
regulatory agencies could mandate the work be accomplished, either by the Port under an
enforcement or similar order, or by the agency. In many cases, such arrangements already exist
between the Port and regulatory agencies. In either case, the Port would lose the opportunity to
employ the flexibility contained in the controlling regulations, to define and direct the work, and
to manage costs. This is not the recommended alternative. 
Alternative 2) 
Complete the work using Port staff. Port staff is already heavily involved in project direction,
legal analysis, and project management, and will continue to perform these services. The nature
and extent of the technical and legal work required to complete this work is substantial, and
would require a large number of additional staff with additional expertise. In addition contracts
would still be required for such work as laboratory analysis. This is not the recommended
alternative. 
Alternative 3) 
Complete the work using outside consultants and contractors. Outside consultants and
contractors have sufficient numbers and types of specialists necessary for timely and cost
effective completion of this work; however, the work would be more costly than if some Port
staff were also involved. This is not the recommended alternative. 
Alternative 4) 
Complete the work using a combination of Port staff (Alternative 2) and outside consultants and
contractors (Alternative 3) that maximizes the ability for the Port to direct cleanup efforts and
maximize the effectiveness of staff. This is the recommended alternative.
