using the money to improve the Airport by providing better access to the terminal from
public transit. 
Ed Plute, 310 Northwest 84th Street, Seattle, Washington, submitted written comments
opposing the Port's memorandum of agreement with the Washington State Department of
Transportation and the deep-bored tunnel. A copy of the document is, by reference, made
a part of these minutes, is marked exhibit B, and is available for inspection in Port offices. 
Stefan Moritz, Director of Strategic Affairs for Unite Here Local 8. Mr. Moritz stated that
Unite Here is disappointed there is no guaranteed job security for employees in the
concessions program at the Airport and was unhappy with the outcome of the policy
direction motion adopted on February 14, 2012, under agenda item 6a. Mr. Moritz spoke
in opposition to extending an Airport concessions lease to McDonalds and stated the
Commission should not compromise the interests of its constituents by catering to large
corporations. 
Julie Williams, employed by HMS Host. Ms. Williams spoke in opposition to having a
McDonalds at the Airport and noted that McDonalds is not a small business, is not a
local business, and does not represent fair-wage jobs. 
At the discretion of the Chair, the Commission advanced to consideration of  
7.   STAFF BRIEFINGS 
7a.  (00:19:25)  Recognition of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's Perfect Score in the
Annual Federal Aviation Administration Federal Aviation Regulations Part 139 Airport
Certification/Safety Inspection. 
Presentation document(s):  Commission agenda memorandum dated February 22, 2012, and
computer slide presentation provided by Michael Ehl, Director Aviation Operations. 
Presenter(s): Mr. Ehl. 
Mr. Ehl reported that for the fifth time in the last 10 years, Seattle-Tacoma International Airport had 
completed its annual Federal Aviation Administration  (FAA)  certification inspection with no
discrepancies.  He explained that certification is crucial to continued airfield operations and
described operations covered under Federal Aviation Regulations Part 139 and reviewed during
annual FAA inspections, including wildlife hazard mitigation plans, recordkeeping, employment of
qualified personnel, maintenance of airport surfaces, self-inspection programs, fire department
personnel, maintenance of the Airport Emergency Plan, and snow and ice control. He noted that
obtaining zero discrepancies in an FAA inspection reflects the commitment of Airport staff to
ensuring public safety. In response to Commissioner Creighton, Mr. Ehl commented that Airport
performance during the January snow and ice storm was exceptional, surpassed its goal to keep
open three runways 55 percent of the time, and was well managed. 
Following consideration of agenda item 7a, the Commission advanced to consideration of  
7b.  (00:30:22)  Greener Skies Over Seattle. 
Presentation document(s):  Commission agenda memorandum dated February 21, 2012, and
computer slide presentation provided by Stan Shepherd, Manager Airport Noise Programs.

PORT COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING MINUTES              Page 5 of 10 
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2012 
Presenter(s):  Mr. Shepherd and David Suomi, Acting Regional Administrator of the Federal
Aviation Administration's (FAA's) Northwest Region. 
Mr. Suomi congratulated the Airport for its perfect Part 139 inspection score. He provided an
update on the Greener Skies Over Seattle program and described the NextGen initiative that is
intended to ease airspace congestion, increase capacity, prepare for new types of aircraft, and
reduce aviation's environmental impacts. 
Mr. Suomi outlined the Greener Skies project as a component of the NextGen program, noting two
initiatives, one to establish standard arrival routes (STARs) and required navigation performance
(RNP) approaches and involving flight simulation trials and environmental assessments; and
another initiative to implement the improvements resulting from the first initiative. 
Mr. Suomi described the benefits of consistent, controlled aircraft approaches that shorten flightpath
length, route aircraft over less noise-sensitive areas such as Elliott Bay, reduce greenhouse
gas emissions, and reduce operational costs. He presented examples of existing flight-path
approaches and contrasted them with an optimized profile descent (OPD) flight path, noting how
OPD would reduce the approach distance, save fuel, absorb delays at cruising altitude farther from
the Airport, and reduce hydrocarbon emissions by adopting a continuous descent pattern requiring
minimum engine thrust. He stated that the objective is to implement use of OPD 85 percent of the
time by 85 percent of aircraft. Mr. Suomi noted that OPD would reduce ineffective communications
between pilots and air traffic control while increasing predictability and flight stability. 
Mr. Suomi presented a profile view of aircraft approaches before and after implementation of OPD 
and demonstrated the quantifiable benefits of idle descent over traditional, level-off descent, which
he said uses 4-5 time more fuel than idle descent, reduces annual flight hours by 4800, saves 2.9
million gallons of fuel annually, and reduces annual CO2 emissions by 30,500 metric tons, an
amount equivalent to removing 5,600 cars from the Seattle region annually. He presented an
illustration showing a significantly narrower flight path for OPD compared to current aircraft
approach vectors, which reduces the area over which aircraft have to pass from a vector about a
mile wide to one about the width of the airplane's wing span. 
Mr. Suomi reported on factors that make Seattle a good location for NextGen implementation, noting
availability of an appropriate lead carrier, presence of a committed airport operator, the degree of
complexity in Seattle's airspace, percentage of operators equipped for OPD implementation,
legislative support for the program in the Seattle area, and good rapport with bargaining units. 
Commissioner Albro commented on the noise reduction benefits represented by the narrowing of
approach flight paths with OPD. Mr. Suomi noted that the environmental assessment for the
Greener Skies Over Seattle program is expected to be complete in October 2012 with publication
of the program approach in March 2013. 
Following consideration of agenda item 7b, the Commission returned to consideration of  
6.   DIVISION, CORPORATE, AND COMMISSION ACTION ITEMS 
6a.  (00:59:35)  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to execute a possession and
use agreement between the Washington State Department of Transportation, the Port
of Seattle, and Total Terminals International LLC for the partial taking of Port of Seattle

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2012 
Terminal 46 for Phase 3 of the South Holgate Street to South King Street Viaduct
Replacement Project. 
Request document(s): Commission agenda memorandum dated February 27, 2012, exhibit A,
exhibit B, possession and use agreement, and computer slide presentation provided by Michael
Campagnaro, Manager, Seaport Leasing and Asset Management; and Christine Wolf,
Transportation Program Planner, Seaport Leasing and Asset Management. 
Presenter(s): Mr. Campagnaro and Ms. Wolf. 
Ms. Wolf described the request as covering minor adjustments to a previously approved real estate
transaction that are necessary to accommodate project design changes beneficial to the Port and
the community. She presented graphics showing the original design that called for an underpass
beneath the BNSF Railroad and East Marginal Way to access the Seattle International Gateway
rail yard from Terminal 46 and the revised design calling for a bridge instead. She noted that the
newer design allows for a north-south connection on the waterfront side of the grade separation,
revises a turning lane design that improves traffic flow along the Atlantic Street corridor, and
improves safety conditions for bicycles. 
Mr. Campagnaro reported that use of a possession and use agreement rather than purchase and
sale agreement is due to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) project
schedule and that the area over which WSDOT requires property rights constitutes approximately
4800 square feet plus about 2500 square feet of aerial rights. He stated that Port staff and the
terminal operator are in agreement with the area needed by WSDOT and added that WSDOT will
compensate the Port based on WSDOT's appraised value of the area, although final compensation
can be negotiated at a later date. Mr. Campagnaro commented that staff would return to
Commission in the future to review the final negotiated compensation for the land areas,
amendment of the Total Terminals International lease to remove the transferred areas from the
lease, and to approve the transfer of title of the affected property. 
Motion for approval of item 6a  Albro 
Second  Bryant 
Motion carried by the following vote: 
In Favor: Albro, Bryant, Creighton, Holland, Tarleton (5) 

6b.  (01:08:48)  Authorization for the Chief Executive Officer to:  (1) proceed with design
and installation of replacement and/or refurbishment of Airport-owned passenger
loading bridges (PLBs) that are at or beyond their useful life; (2) authorize execution of
contacts to purchase new PLBs and replacement PLB components for refurbishment;
and (3) approve the use of Port crews to perform work related to (a)
modification/refurbishment of an existing PLB and (b) installation of new PLBs at
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The amount of this request is $2,405,000.  It is
anticipated that one PLB will be replaced and up to three PLBs will be refurbished
under this scope of work (CIP #C800267). 
Request document(s): Commission agenda memorandum dated February 17, 2012, andgraphic 
of passenger loading bridge improvements provided by John Christianson, General Manager,
Aviation Maintenance; and Wayne Grotheer, Director, Aviation Project Management Group.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2012 
Presenter(s):  David Soike, Director, Aviation Facilities and Capital Program; and Alan Olson,
Capital Project Manager. 
Mr. Olson reported that there are 74 passenger loading bridges (PLBs) at the Airport, of which 51
are owned by the Airport. He explained that the project would replace or refurbish PLBs that have
exceeded their useful life, according to a prioritized list of PLBs between 24-38 years old, and
stated that PLBs would be replaced or refurbished based on their mechanical condition and age.
Mr. Olson noted that refurbishment represents approximately half the cost of replacement and
extends the life of the equipment by 20 years. 
Mr. Soike described the application of the Port's Continuous Process Improvement (CPI), or "Lean"
initiative to the PLB project.  He reported that operating engineers were asked to apply CPI
principles to the weekly PLB preventive maintenance check process, resulting in an overall threepercent
improvement in work due to reduction of process time per bridge by 15 minutes, which
translates to 215 hours per year. He stated weekly work orders were reduced from 51 to 12 and
paperwork was reduced from 100 pieces of paperwork to 24 pieces per week. Mr. Soike noted that
travel distances and fuel consumption were also reduced by identifying improved efficiencies. 
Mr. Soike commented that CPI improvements are related to collection of metrics and external
certification efforts intended by Chief Executive Officer Yoshitani to improve the Port's internal
efficiency. 
Motion for approval of item 6b  Creighton 
Second  Holland 
Motion carried by the following vote: 
In Favor: Albro, Bryant, Creighton, Holland, Tarleton (5) 
Agenda items 7a and 7b having been disposed of previously, the Commission advanced to
consideration of  
7.   STAFF BRIEFINGS 
7c.  (01:17:22)  Ground Run-Up Enclosure ("hush house") Siting Study. 
Presentation document(s): Commission agenda memorandum dated February 21, 2012, letter 
dated from June 27, 2011, from Airlines Airport Affairs Committee, and computer slide presentation 
provided by Stan Shepherd, Manager Airport Noise Programs; and Tom Hooper, Aviation Planner. 
Presenter(s):   Mr. Shepherd, Mr. Hooper, and Rob Adams, Executive Vice President,
Environmental Services Division of Landrum and Brown. 
Mr. Shepherd described a typical three-sided ground run-up enclosure (GRE) that could reduce
noise levels from engine run-ups by 15-20 decibels and accommodate approximately 96 percent of
the engine run-ups at the Airport by providing for aircraft as large as a Boeing 737-900. He
explained that construction of a GRE is a component of the Airport's Part 150 study that, if
approved, might be eligible for grant funding. He noted that GREs are common at many airports in
North America and worldwide.




PORT COMMISSION REGULAR MEETING MINUTES              Page 8 of 10 
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2012 
Mr. Hooper presented four potential sites for construction of a GRE, noting each site's relative
merits relating to community noise impacts, compatibility with existing and future facilities,
operational impacts, cost, and environmental considerations. He stated that option A represents
an expansion of the airfield to the south that might reduce employee parking capacity, would pose
a conflict with taxiway A about 30 percent of the time, is relatively expensive to develop, and would
be located near a critical area. He noted option B, located near the Alaska Airlines maintenance
facility, poses some line-of-sight issues and would affect existing aircraft remain-overnight (RON)
parking positions. He commented that option D, located at the former U.S. Postal Service facility,
is not very close to the Alaska or Delta maintenance facilities and may represent a loss of two or
three RON positions. He reported that option E at the east end of the airfield in the north cargo
area is close to a residential area but far from Alaska and Delta maintenance facilities. In response
to Commissioner Creighton, Mr. Hooper explained that option C had been ruled out previously as
impractical. 
Mr. Adams presented a graphic showing the location of current engine run-ups at the north and
south ends of runway 16L/34R and the noise contours associated with run-ups at those locations.
He compared the current noise contours with prospective noise contours associated with use of
GREs at location options A, B, and D, noting noise reduction on the three built sides of the GRE
and a noise contour similar to existing conditions on the open side. He explained that the Lmax
contours provided represent a measurement of single-event, maximum noise as opposed to DNL
contours, which represent average noise levels. 
In response to Commissioner Creighton, Mr. Adams explained that the noise contour projections
represent a westward orientation of the open side of each GRE, consistent with the direction of
prevailing winds in the area. 
In response to Commissioner Albro, Mr. Adams stated that during the design phase of construction
for a particular GRE, a detailed analysis would be conducted that might result in a GRE orientation
that could be positioned more toward the southwest. 
Mr. Adams noted there is a cumulative effect to concentrating engine run-ups in a GRE that were
previously conducted at multiple locations on the airfield and pointed out that larger aircraft would
potentially continue to conduct their run-ups outside the GRE.  He reported that airline
maintenance staff tend to report operational benefits to conducting run-ups in a GRE as opposed
to other airfield locations. 
Mr. Shepherd commented on next steps, including Commission involvement in deciding whether to
include a GRE recommendation in the Part 150 study, obtaining approval from the Federal Aviation
Administration for funding eligibility for constructing a GRE, and continued collaboration with the
airlines. 
7d.  (01:42:45)  Monthly Briefing  Update on the Consolidated Rental Car Facility Program.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 2012 
Mr. England reported on efforts to pursue Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)
certification from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), and the project's receipt of approval of
LEED certification with a silver rating. 
Ms. Zahn reported on the status of the project, noting approximately 75 project workers on site and
about 100 workers involved in tenant improvements. She reported there have been no lost-time
safety incidents for the past few years; commented on commissioning activities for the fueling
facility, communications system, and emergency power system; noted approval of the elevator
system; and stated work is on schedule for the May 17, 2012, opening date. 
Ms. Zahn commented on the status of contractor claims for which no-cost time extensions have
been granted to the contractor and noted that staff is working with Pierce Transit to obtain enough
buses to conduct a maximum capacity test of the new facility, delay of which is not expected to
affect the opening date.  Ms. Zahn reported that the Commission would be asked in March to
authorize a change order for a time extension of approximately 120 days. She stated the new onramp
to SR-518 is open. 
Mr. England reported on preparations for the rental car companies' overnight cut-over to use of the
new facility and stated that employment offers to bus drivers have been accepted. He presented
an update on program costs, noting that it has been determined that the entire Off-Site Road
Improvements budget has to be considered public expense, although the costs have been
determined to be Customer-Facilities-Charge (CFC) eligible. He stated this would not affect the
updated project budget as presented. 
Mr. England presented updated CFC trends, which continue to grow above forecast. 
8.   NEW BUSINESS 
8a.  (01:54:00) Motion to award the Chief Executive Officer an "Outstanding" performance
rating for 2011. 
Commissioner Tarleton announced that the Commission had discussed the Chief Executive
Officer's (CEO's) performance evaluation and rating in executive sessionand would approve the
evaluation and rating in public session today consistent with the performance ratings common to all
Port employees. She explained that the CEO's goals and objectives for 2012 were presented to
and approved by the Commission in January, and Mr. Yoshitani had provided his own assessment
of his 2011 performance to the Commission.
Commissioner Tarleton commented on Mr. Yoshitani's leadership in focusing on the agency's
financial health and job creation during turbulent times while respecting diversity; his forwardlooking
collaboration with the Commission, including embracing of the Century Agenda and
development of ambitious implementation goals; and his clear view of strategic opportunities and
potential risks. 
Commissioner Creighton commented Mr. Yoshitani's focus on the Port's fiscal strength, including a
recent bond refunding that resulted in savings of approximately $85 million. Commissioner Albro
commented on his travel to Asia with Mr. Yoshitani and Mr. Yoshitani's ability to cultivate valuable
relationships for the Port.
