the Chief Executive Officer to execute a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with the
State of Washington affirming Port participation on Not-to-Exceed $300,000,000 in the
Alaskan Way Viaduct and Seawall Replacement Program 
Request document: Commission agenda memorandum dated February 3, 2010 from Kurt Beckett,
Director, External Affairs; Mike Merritt, Local Government Affairs Manager; and Geri Poor,
Regional Transportation Manager, and computer slide presentation. Also provided was the final
draft of the MOA, agreed to, subject to Commission review and approval. 
Presenters: Mr. Merritt; Ms. Poor; Ron Paananen, Washington State Department of Transportation
(WSDOT); and Ron Judd, WSDOT. 
Mr. Merritt referred to items which were discussed at the February 2, 2010 Commission briefing on
the subject, noting that staff has incorporated suggested changes for consideration. He
commented on the importance to the Port of moving freight traffic efficiently; establishing
connectivity between the industrial areas and the city; and minimizing construction disruption
during the project. He also noted that WSDOT estimates this project will support approximately
4,000 jobs during construction.
Ms. Poor provided detail of the significant revisions within sections of the proposed MOA,
incorporated since staff briefed the Commission on February 2. 
Mr. Paananen mentioned activities which would be forthcoming, including the issuance of the draft
RFP for the design/build contract for the tunnel; the opening of bids for the Holgate to King Street
Project (the removal of the southern mile of the Viaduct); and the holding of public meetings,
allowing for the public to comment on the tunnel alignment and the corridor itself. He also
commented on the safety of the tunnel option, noting that the design will be approved by WSDOT
as well as the Federal Highway Administration, and reiterated that it will be a safe project when it
opens to traffic. 
Mr. Judd noted that WSDOT understands the importance to the Port of the cruise industry, the
freight industry, and also that the project works for issues on Mercer and other links. 
Commissioner Bryant noted comments which had been received from the following, all of which
are noted below and included as part of the record: Alaska Airlines; Argosy Cruises; Association of

General Contractors of Washington; Boeing; Greater Seattle Chamber of Commerce; Holland
America Line; Pike Place Market Development and Preservation Authority; SSA Marine; Seattle
Convention and Visitors Bureau; Seattle Historic Waterfront Association; Seattle Marine Business
Coalition; The Seattle Mariners; The Skolnik Company; Sprint Forwarders; Victoria Clipper and
Clipper Vacations. He noted that among elected official from whom comments were received were
Mayor Terry Anderson, City of SeaTac; Councilmember Ralph Shape; Washington State
Legislators  Representative Judy Clibborn, Senator Mary Margaret Haugen; and King County
Councilmember Larry Phillips. 
Commissioner Creighton noted his concern about protecting the Port's investments should there
be a change in administrations, and the importance of learning from prior transportation
agreements, specifically the one related to the SR 519 Project. 
Commissioner Holland stated his belief that the Viaduct does need to come down; that the Tunnel
Option is the best option; and that it makes sense for the Port and its customers. He also noted his
concern about how we use the tax levy and bonding authority of the institution, and commented on
the importance of maintaining a working and viable waterfront. 
Public comment regarding Item 6a was received from the following individuals: 
Darrell Bryan, Clipper Navigation, Inc. Mr. Bryan expressed support of the MOA, stating
his belief that the bored tunnel option will be beneficial in keeping businesses open during
construction. 
Tayloe Washburn, Seattle Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Washburn spoke in support of the
MOA, commenting on safety issues related to both the Seawall and the Viaduct. 
Bob Donegan, speaking in support of the MOU, urged the Port to act quickly on the item. 
Ed Plute, who stated that he believes the Port is moving on this process too quickly, and
that more environmental study needs to be done. 
John Coney, Uptown Alliance. Mr. Coney spoke in support of the MOU, while at the same
time noting concern about Mercer West and pedestrian and bike safety issues. 
Eugene Wasserman, North Seattle Industrial Association. Mr. Wasserman voiced concern
that not enough review of the agreement has taken place; that the City is not part of the
agreement; and that freight will not be able to move through the central waterfront well
enough. He also voiced concern that there will not be adequate safeguards along Alaskan
Way, stating his belief that the MOU should clearly call for four lanes with a turn lane along
the central waterfront, as that is not currently guaranteed the way the MOU is written. 
Jerry Dindorff, Associated General Contractors of Washington. Mr. Dindorff voiced strong
support of the project, noting the importance jobs which will be created. 
Christopher Brown, who stated his belief that it is illegal for the Port to participate in this
project, according to his understanding of the RCW. 
Liz Warman, The Boeing Company. Ms. Warman thanked the Port for its leadership and
voiced support of the MOA. 
Jim Smith, who stated that he believes the Port's participation in the project is an
unnecessary extravagance at this time in history and that a better option would be to
retrofit the Viaduct.

Dave Gehring, Manufacturing Industrial Council. Mr. Gehring spoke in support of the
MOA, noting that the appeal to his group is that this option protects Interstate 5 and keeps
regional commerce flowing. 
Mike Peringer, SODO Business Association. 
A packet of written comments and emails regarding Item 6a, from various individuals and
organizations, was provided, some of which had also been provided at the February 2,
2010 meeting. A copy of these documents is, by reference, made a part of these minutes;
they are collectively marked Exhibit 'A'; and they are available in Port offices. 
Ron Paananen, Washington State Department of Transportation responded to concerns raised
during public comment by Mr. Eugene Wasserman regarding the number of transportation lanes
which would exist in the central waterfront area. He clarified that the basis of the transportation
analysis and what will go forward is that there will be four lanes along the central waterfront with
turn lanes at each intersection, and south of Coleman Dock, there will be six lanes because of the
added traffic between there and the south portal of the tunnel. He noted that there is a great deal
of documentation regarding this expectation and that the plan moving forward will include these
features. 
Commissioner Creighton commented on the project's importance to the regional economy and
voiced his support. He also encouraged staff to look at the language within the MOA which would
address concerns raised during public comment. 
Commissioner Holland reiterated his commitment to the Port's bonding authority and the levy
ability, and also commented on the importance of maintaining the financial stability of the Port.
Commissioner Albro stated the importance of moving forward with this project, noting that the
Port's significant financial contribution will help provide influence as to the outcome of the project.
He also reiterated the importance of maintaining the industrial base and the moving of goods. 
Commissioner Creighton commented on the severely underfunded freight system at a national
level, and noted the importance of working out a path forward over the coming years for effective
funding at both a state and national level.

funded by the Airport Development Fund 
Request document: Commission agenda memorandum dated January 25, 2010 from Michael Ehl,
Director, Airport Operations and Wayne Grotheer, Director, Aviation Capital Improvement Program 
Presenters: Mr. Grotheer and Mark Coates, Senior Manager, Airport Operations 
Mr. Coates provided background information on the project, noting that it would include the
replacement of 150 panels on runway 16C/34C, and needs to be done at this point due to the age
of the panels and emergency repairs which have been necessary. He noted that the project will
take approximately two months, and is key to addressing safety concerns. 
Mr. Grotheer pointed out that this request is for the minimum amount of work needed, and staff is
uncertain whether or not additional repairs may be required before 2016, when the entire runway is
scheduled to be replaced. He noted that this project will require closing the runway for 60 days,
followed by potential night-time closures in order to do the necessary grooving of the runway.
Mr. Grotheer clarified that this request is for approval of both design and advertisement of the work
for construction in order to expedite the work for safety reasons and construction scheduling,
noting that it would be combined with apron panel replacement work, which has previously been
authorized. 
Following discussion of issues related to the ability for Sea-Tac to handle aircraft such as A380's,
Commissioner Albro stated that at a later date, he would like to hear a strategy for possible future
modifications which would allow Sea-Tac to handle this type of aircraft. 
Responding to Commissioner Bryant's question as to whether or not the summer closure of the
runway will complicate the upcoming FAA Part 150 noise study, Stan Shepherd, Manager, Airport
Noise Programs stated that this project should really not play into the Part 150 study. 
Motion for approval of Item 6b - Tarleton

perform work in support of Delta's tenant project at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

to meet the aggressive schedule, some of the work may need to be performed in three shifts.
Ms. Sheerer stated that staff is currently working with Delta to develop a tenant reimbursement
agreement for this project, but an accurate reimbursement amount has not been decided.
Commissioner Creighton raised the question of Delta's future lease rates and whether or not the
asbestos abatement costs will be incorporated into the rate. James Jennings, Aviation Properties
and Facilities Manager, stated that the lease will follow the Airport's standard terminal rental rates. 
Commissioner Tarleton stated that at the end of a given year, she would like to have a review of
circumstances that have led to taking exceptions to Resolution No. 3605, the Delegation of
Authority.

Mr. Campagnaro reviewed terms of the proposed lease with Kinder Morgan. Mr. Campagnaro also
noted that there was a typo within the original memo received by the Commission, and clarified that
rather than the Port being responsible for the maintenance of the main structure, that maintenance
is actually the sole responsibility of the Lessee.

Commission in the near future to discuss items related to Terminals 5, 18 and 30, and today's
briefing would provide context to those items.
Mr. Burke commented on the issue of City utilities still located in these areas and under Port
terminals, and noted the importance of the City being able to access those utilities. 
Commissioner Tarleton raised the question of whether or not the current City Council members
should also be briefed on these issues, since the Council also has new members who may be
unaware of these street vacation issues. 
Mike Merritt, Manager, Local Government Relations, responded that staff has already begun
discussions with the new Councilmembers. 
It was suggested by Commissioners Albro and Tarleton that a joint meeting with the Port and the
City Council be held at some point in the future. 
Commissioner Bryant asked that Mr. Merritt and Mary Gin Kennedy, Director, Commission
Services, work to schedule a time when the Port could meet with the City Council. 
Ms. Chu reviewed street vacation projects in the areas of Terminals 105, and 25/30. She stated
that staff will return to the Commission with multiple real estate related agreements and projects for
approval. 
Mr. Burke then clarified that these projects had previously been authorized under the Port's
previous method of authorization, known as project-wide. He stated that since that method is no
longer used, these projects will return for current authorization using the Port's revised delegation
of authority. 
8.   NEW BUSINESS 
(02:11:19) Ralph Graves, Managing Director, Capital Development Division, briefed the
Commission on an item which would be coming forward related to the Consolidated Warehouse
Facility near the Airport. He reported that due to several issues (connecting water to the facility; a
work scope which was exceeded; and a need to authorize additional funds), staff would need to
return to Commission for related adjustments.
