PORT OF SEATTLE MEMORANDUM COMMISSION AGENDA Item No. 6a-1 Date of Meeting August 4, 2009 DATE: July 30, 2009 TO: Tay Yoshitani, Chief Executive Officer FROM: Elizabeth Leavitt, Director, Aviation Planning and Environmental Programs Michael Lufkin, Sr. Environmental Strategy Manager, Aviation Env. Programs SUBJECT: Seattle Tacoma International Airport's (Sea-Tac) Five Year Environmental Strategy Plan As It Relates to the Century Agenda BACKGROUND The purpose of this briefing is to provide the Port of Seattle Commission with an overview of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's recently completed Five-Year Environmental Strategy Plan, "A Vision for 2014 and Beyond" (Plan). The Plan defines the airport's environmental leadership strategy by identifying environmental goals that staff proposes we achieve by 2014. The Plan includes performance metrics for key environmental indicator areas, which will allow Sea-Tac to quantitatively measure environmental performance across time and against its goals. This Environmental Strategy Plan is aspirational. Although the Plan identifies actions and strategies that move Sea-Tac towards achievement of its environmental goals, it does not commit any financial resources or mandate any specific action or project. All future projects and actions will be evaluated to ensure that they provide value for money spent, and will obtain any necessary Commission approvals. The Plan will serve as a guide for planning, setting priorities and allocation of resources.
