.. Potential Improvement Options The Port of Seattle is identifying ways to accommodate growing airport activity over the next 20 years within current environmental, airspace and land use constraints. Expansions or improvements will occur with Sea-Tac s current 3-runway configuration. Planning Considerations: Development is constrained within existing three runways (no 4th runway) No terminal facilities can be built west Limited footprint is available for development Terminal expansion to add gates will displace existing facilities Port owned land to the south would need to be connected to the airfield to accommodate displaced facilities (area shown in blue north of S. 200th ST and south of S. 188th ST) City of Normandy Park 1st AVE S City of Des Moines S 160th ST SR 509 SR 518 S 146th ST SR 509 City of Burien SR 509 Critical Areas SR 509 8th AVE S S 136th ST S 128th ST Critical Areas Des Moines Memorial Drive 18th AVE S Critical Areas SR 518 Seattle-Tacoma International Airport 24th AVE S SR 518 28th AVE S Cemetery S 208th ST S 200th ST International Boulevard (Hwy 99) S 188th ST S 176th ST S 142nd ST S 170th ST International Boulevard (HWY 99) S 154th ST International Boulevard I-5 City of SeaTac S 160th ST City of Tukwila SR 518 Port Property City Boundaries Port Property & Local Jurisdictions Seattle-Tacoma International Airport 0.5 0.25 0 0.5 Miles SHEET 1 of 1 Prepared By: Aviation Planning Date: Fall 2014 Terminal Cargo Displaced Facilities Off-airport Development Areas Areas to Accomodate Displaced Facilities Future Airport Land Uses DRAFT - Preliminary Concepts Development Constraints 1,500 0 1,500 750 Feet SHEET 1 of 1 Prepared By: Aviation Planning Date: November 2014

Terminal Improvement Options Key issues: Need to provide 35 additional gates Locate overnight aircraft parking positions north and south of expanded terminal to minimize Improvement options: Expansion is needed to the north and south to provide additional gates and passenger check-in capacity. towing Determine if single terminal can support passenger processing for 35 new gates Next steps: Detailed analysis of expansion options Incorporate non-terminal functions into overall land use plan Coordinate terminal-related facilities planning Airfield and terminal ramp simulation modeling South gate expansion options Concourse A Extension or Additional South Satellite North gate expansion options North Piers or North Satellite Extension Main terminal expansion options Main Terminal Expansion to east and north or Additional Terminal to north

South Gate Expansion Options Note: Expansion is needed to the north and south to provide additional gates and passenger check-in capacity. Option 1: Concourse A Extension Pros LEGEND Blue line=gate expansion Meets international gate requirement International Arrivals Facility (IAF) connection to international gates through concourse appears better Does not require lidding over S. 188th St. Dual taxi-lanes between new gates and South Satellite Cons Yields fewer gates Option 2: Additional South Satellite Pros LEGEND Blue line=gate expansion Meets international gate requirement Yields more gates Cons Difficult International Arrivals Facility (IAF) connection to international gates Requires lidding over S. 188th St. Single taxi-lane between new gates and South Satellite

North Gate Expansion Options Note: Expansion is needed to the north and south to provide additional gates and passenger check-in capacity. Option 1: North Piers Option 2: North Satellite Extenstion Pros LEGEND Blue line=gate expansion Pros LEGEND Blue line=gate expansion Meets domestic gate requirement Straightforward opportunity for second terminal (if required) May not require relocation of southbound lanes of North Airport expressway Can more easily phase additions of new gates Easier to accommodate widebody aircraft Cons Challenge connecting passengers to the north Meets domestic gate requirement Cons Impacts operations Limited opportunity for second terminal Requires relocation of southbound lanes of the North Airport Expressway Gate phasing has more impact to existing facilities Limited ability to accommodate widebody aircraft Challenge connecting passengers to the north

Terminal Check-in Expansion Options Note: Expansion is needed to the north and south to provide additional gates and passenger check-in capacity. Option 1: Main Terminal Expansion Option 2: Additional Terminal to the North Expands main terminal to the east and the north Expands bag claim to the north Constructs second terminal to support north gates Provides landside access, curb, and parking Provides pedestrian connection to gates over/ under North Airport Expressway LEGEND Blue line=gate/terminal expansion

Airfield Improvement Options Key issues: Additional airfield connected land required to meet demand Accommodate 120 peak hour operations (up from 88 with no airfield expansion) Next steps: Alternatives analysis to model airfield improvements and determine feasibility and cost/ benefit Coordination with FAA Increase airfield efficiency to make full use of three runway system Options: Construct End-Around Taxiways to expedite the flow of landing and departing aircraft and increase capacity Extend Taxiway A to double queuing capacity, provide a bypass, and improve access to and from the south end

Airfield Improvement Options End-around taxiways Taxiway A extension EXISTING CONDITIONS FUTURE CONDITIONS 70 percent of operations (all Group III) could avoid crossing departures runways Minor reduction in take-off weight for large, long-haul international flights Doubles queuing capacity Provides a bypass on south end taxiway system Improves access to/from south end gates & SASA

Landside Improvement Options Key issues: Upper and Lower Drive expansion difficult Expressway access to parking/upper/lower Drives exceedingly narrow Regional roadways outside of direct Port control Rental Car Facility (RCF) bus traffic contributes Ground Transportation Lot (GT lot) to congestion accessing the drives Next steps: Determine interaction between possible Parking Garage Service Tunnel Upper Drive GT Lot Access Ramp Apron Potential APM Corridor terminal expansion and curb/garage options Explore curbside relocation/expansion Lower Drive Parking Light Rail alternatives Landside simulation modeling Integration of opportunities, costs, and impacts of terminal and landside options All traffic accessing the airport funnels through a bottleneck on the North Airport Expressway

Landside Improvement Options Options: Widen Upper Drive Add third lane to Upper and Lower Drive access Potentially divert demand to alternate drop-off locations Relocate Upper Drive into garage Relocating Upper Drive into garage enables terminal expansion Raising pedestrian bridge to the fifth floor provides adequate clearance for buses
