Minutes Exhibit C
Minutes Exhibit C n Regular Meeting of Julv 10. 2018 THE BRIEFING PROJECT EPISODE 8 BY THE NUMBERS Thank you. I'm Steve Edmiston. I'm here to give you the briefing you asked for last year from the FAA and from your staff on the community impacts from NextGen and increased aircraft overights. I've covered what went wrong with that brieng. Today, we begin the brieng you should have had. it starts with numbers. The numbers that drive everything else when it comes to the impacts of overights on human health, the environment, crime, property values, social justice, and quality of life. They are the answers to two simple questions: How many additional airplanes are already ying over our homes? And, how many more are coming? The rst number is your True Baseline Increase. We all seem to agree that the airport has reached its peak-hour capacity at 416,000 annual aircraft operations in 2017. This means that measured since 2013, roughly 98,000 new aircraft are already now ying over our homes each year. We now have 1,140 daily overights, a jump of 271 new overights every day. The daytime estimate is nearly one every single minute. This is why your communities are already crying out. It's why Adam Smith dropped his Aviation Impacted Communities bill. It's why neighbor city electeds are banding together. It's why state legislators are pursuing mitigation and emission studies. it seems everyone got the memo here except the Port. But it's the "how many more planes are coming" question where we really see things turned up to eleven. Your growth proposal the SAMP proposes a moonshot up to 496,000 annual ights extrapolating current numbers. That's 1360 ights per day; 75 each hour; 1.3 each minute. It's the new definition of non-stop. It's another increase of 80,000 ights per year, and when all is said and done counting the baseline and phase I we'll have added 180,000 more annual ights or 492 more ights per day. That's like The Avengers picked up the entire airport - say Portland's or Baltimore's and just dropped it on top of Seattle. These are big and frightening numbers. And it's been frustrating for your citizens that they are also the hardest numbers to nd. I checked the home page of the SAMP again yesterday, and all the passenger and economic growth numbers are ying. But not the answer to how many planes are coming. Your staff is burying the lead. Thank you for providing this citizen two-minutes to comment.
