ATTACHMENT A 
TODAY'S BRIEFING FOR May 22, 2012 
Grand Opening Results 
The official opening ceremony was held May 9, 2012, was well attended by nearly 300 people and
the facility was well received based on the feedback. The ceremony was led by Airport Director Mark
Reis and Commission President Gale Tarleton spoke along with other dignitaries. A bus drove
through a banner signifying the ribbon cutting ceremony. Tours for over 100 attendees began at the
conclusion of the ribbon cutting. 
Conducted tours to employees who commented on how nice the facility was. 
The Port supplied the RAC's with brochures to give customers in order to facilitate the transition to
the new facility for customers returning cars. 
Drivers conducted practice runs between the Airport and RCF since April 22, 2012. 
Airport roadway signage revisions began Monday night May 14th and were conducted each night
through the actual transition. This was done for safety reasons. 
Transition from the terminal parking garage to the new RCF began promptly at 12:01 am Thursday
morning May 17, 2012. A small Incident Command center was established to manage the detailed
transition plan developed between the Port, the RAC's and the RCF Facility Manager. PCS and
Maintenance also supported activities throughout the early morning. 
A verbal report will be presented by staff regarding the actual opening of the facility, scheduled to 
occur after this document was submitted. 
Open Issues 
RCF Signage: Four additional wayfinding signs are scheduled to be installed after opening date. The
Port will install additional signage if determined necessary after opening. 
The potential exists for the flight information display, common use check-in kiosks, courtesy phone
kiosk and Wi-Fi systems to not be fully functional at opening due to the amount of work PCS crews
and their contractors had to perform and a requirement for Underwriter Laboratory ratings on system
assemblies by Electrical codes. 
All art disks have been installed, with the electrical infrastructure to support the spinning disks in
progress with final powering up after opening. 
A verbal report will be presented by staff on other items discovered or not known at the time this
document was submitted.

Seattle to Portland. 
Total of 411,000 cubic yards of excavation has been completed. 
54,575,311 gallons of water have been treated on the project, equivalent to 11,000 gas tanker trucks. 
The contractor hand placed approximately 45 acres of "swirl" finish on the floor plates. 
The Project used in excess of 15,000 gallons of paint over 1,874,000 square feet of concrete ceilings

2,300 light fixtures were installed 47 on poles. 
One-half mile of fuel piping under the QTA's was installed, which is capable of holding 1,000
gallons of fuel. 
96 fuel nozzles, the largest quantity at one site this side of the Mississippi.
