11 
12    On October 11, 2013, Resolution No 3683 was passed by Commission approving the Part 150 to be
13    submitted to the FAA for review. The FAA issued a P150 record of approval June 5, 2014. While p ast
14    implementation was limited due to funding availability, significant work was completed. However, critical
15    elements of the program remain. Accelerating the remainder of sound insulation programs is essential to
16    providing relief to those local communities impacted by aircraft noise.

20    The Port of Seattle Executive Director shall take necessary actions to accelerate the airport sound
21    insulation program.  The Executive Director shall implement the recommended structure, staffing,
22    funding, resources, consulting, and contracting to ensure a timely delivery of the program. Port staff shall
23    brief the Commission Aviation Committee regularly on progress on the development of the program and
24    implementation.

26    The Port shall also continue staff efforts to coordinate with other public agencies to ensure that our sound
27    insulation program is complementary to, and not duplicative of nor harmful to, other public agency
28    programs intended to provide low income housing, energy upgrades, and other community benefits.
