Request document: Commission agenda memorandum dated June 4, 2009 from
Elizabeth Morrison, Senior Manager, Corporate Finance 
Presenter: Ms. Morrison 
Ms. Morrison addressed both Items 6a and 6b simultaneously at the request of the
Commission.
Ms. Morrison provided information on Port ratings received since First Reading of the
resolutions on June 2. Moody's confirmed the Aa2 rating on the Port's First Lien and
Standard and Poor's confirmed the AA- rating. She noted that a rating from Fitch was
anticipated the following day. 
Staff noted that they would plan to return to the Commission on June 23 with two related 
items, those being a request for authorization to restart the Rental Car Facility Project;
and a request to amend Resolution No. 3599, which sets the CFC rates and describes the
parameters under which staff can adjust the rate without further Commission action. 
Regarding recommended amendments to Resolution 3619, Ms. Morrison explained that
changes would be mainly administrative in nature to add clarity that some bonds may be
issued as Capital Appreciation Bonds and that the only material amendment would be
setting of delegation parameters, limiting the size and interest rate, and that staff cannot
exceed the limitations without further Commission action.

determine a method of remediation; and enter into a Public Participation Plan with DOE. 
Mr. Agid stated that it was anticipated that there would be a second Agreed Order issued
in the future, which would cover the actual detail planning for, and implementation of,
the site remediation. He commented that by that time it was hoped that the Port and the
City of Burien would have a cooperative redevelopment plan for the site.
