Skagit-Island Counties Metropolitan & Regional Transportation Plan Skagit-Island Counties Metropolitan & Regional Transportation Plan Prepared by: Skagit Council of Governments In Association With: Transpo Group ECONorthwest Berk & Associates PTV America Adoption of the Skagit Metropolitan and Skagit-Island Counties Regional Transportation Plan for 2010 - 2035 The Skagit Metropolitan Planning Organization (SMPO) is composed of the City of Burlington, City of Mount Vernon, City of Sedro Woolley, Port of Skagit, Skagit Transit, and Skagit County. The geographic area is made up of the urbanized areas of Skagit County including the cities of Mount Vernon, Burlington, Sedro Woolley and their respective Urban Growth Areas, Skagit Transit and Port of Skagit. The SMPO is comprised of portions of the 10th and 39th legislative districts. The SMPO is federally mandated and cooperates with the state and local governments in developing transportation plans, and programs within the MPO Boundaries. The Skagit-Island Regional Transportation Planning Organization (SIRTPO) is state mandated and made up of two sub-regional planning organizations composed of local jurisdictions within Skagit and Island Counties. Each sub-regional planning organization is directed by a policy board comprised of elected officials and other members representing business, navy and transportation interests. State legislators from the 10th, 39th, and 40th legislative districts are all ex-officio members of the SIRTPO. Beginning in December of 2009, public input was obtained through a series of visioning workshops, open houses and a project website (www.scog.net). The Skagit MPO and SIRTPO Technical Advisory Committees (TAC’s) for the Skagit MPO and each sub-region actively participated in the development of a Draft Plan that was released to the public for further comment during a 30-day review period from February 8 – March 8, 2011. The Final Skagit-Island Metropolitan and Regional Transportation Plan was formally adopted by the Skagit MPO and the Skagit RTPO Policy Boards on April 20, 2011and on April 27, 2011 by the Island RTPO Policy Board. The document is a long-range transportation plan for both the Skagit and Island County region. An update to the Plan is required every three years to maintain the region’s eligibility to receive federal and state funding for transportation improvement projects. The Final Plan includes an extensive list of fiscally constrained transportation improvements for the region. These include both improvements on state highways and regionally significant roadways that will be implemented by local jurisdictions. Included on the following page is a copy of the signed resolution acknowledging the Skagit Metropolitan Planning Organization and Skagit-Island Regional Transportation Planning Organization’s adoption of the final Metropolitan and Regional Transportation Plan 2010-2035.

    Despite the Devastating Tragedy of the 9/11 Terrorist Attack on This

    General Aviation Airports Pose a Threat to National Security Nearly eleven years have elapsed since that fateful September day when Mohammed Atta commandeered American Airlines Flight 11 and crashed it into the North Tower of the World Trade Center.1 A few minutes later fellow terrorist Marwan al Shehhi steered United Airlines Flight 175 into the South Tower.2 Both Atta and Shehhi obtained pilot's licenses and received large jet flight simulator instruction at Huffman Aviation in Venice Florida. They also trained at Jones Aviation in Sarasota, Florida.3 Hani Hanjour, who piloted American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon, was rejected from a flight school in his home country before receiving pilot training in the U.S. After being turned away by the flight school in Saudi Arabia he was accepted at Arizona Aviation. From there he went on to obtain both a private and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued commercial pilot certification. Hanjour then returned to Saudi Arabia where he was denied admission to a civil aviation school. Upon returning to the U.S. Hanjour trained on a Boeing 737 simulator at the Pan Am International Flight Academy in Mesa, Arizona.4 He also trained and practiced at Air Fleet Training Systems in Teterboro, New Jersey, and Caldwell Flight Academy in Fairfield, New Jersey.5 United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed short of its presumed Washington DC target, came down in a field in Pennsylvania. This aircraft was piloted by Ziad Jarrah6 who received his private pilot training at the Florida Flight Training Center in Venice, Florida.7 In addition he trained at the Hortman Aviation,8 a training school which serves the Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware region.9 Within the space of seventy-seven minutes, terrorists transformed four commercial aircraft into weapons of mass destruction.

Ziegler, P.E. 2702 South 42nd Street, Suite 201 Director Tacoma, Washington 98409-7322 [email protected] piercecountywa.org/pwu TO: Dan Roach, Chair Pierce County Council FROM: Deb Wallace, Airport and Ferry Administrator DATE: October 28, 2014 SUBJECT: Airport Security The purpose of this briefing paper is to provide an update to Council on the status of security upgrades at Pierce County's airports. Current Situation: The Pierce County Airport and Ferry division is in the process of upgrading gate access, fencing, and security lighting at both airports. In 2015 the division will implement an Airport Watch program to increase the safety and security at each facility. The improvements are being made due to incidents which have occurred at the airports over the last several years and at the request of airport tenants. Currently both airports are fenced with restricted access gates to enhance security, although there are gaps in the fencing allowing unauthorized pedestrian entry. These gaps will be addressed in early 2015. An electronic gate is being added to the north gate at Tacoma Narrows Airport (TIW) and the south gate is being outfitted with a mechanism to allow its use by those who are hearing impaired. Once that improvement is completed, 24 hour security will be implemented at TIW. Thun Field currently operates with 24 hour gate security. Prior to implementation, the airport commissions at each airport discussed airport security measures during the preceding year and staff coordinated the implementation of the security measures with airport tenants.

    The Objective of This Section Is to Identify, in General Terms, The

    The objective of this section is to identify, in general terms, the adequacy of the existing airport facilities and outline what facilities may be needed to accommodate future demands. Airport facilities include both airside and landside components. Airside components include the runway system (runways and taxiways), navigational aids, lighting, and markings. Landside components include terminal facilities, storage and maintenance hangars, auto parking, access, and support facilities. There are four primary sources from which to examine and determine facility requirements: Aviation Demand Forecasts: The forecasts of aviation demand developed in the previous chap‐ ter serve as data inputs to various models, which have been constructed following Federal Avia‐ tion Administration (FAA) guidance, to generate facility needs. Design Standards Review: Various design standards that apply to the airport are reviewed as they can change based on modifications to FAA guidance or activity changes at the airport. De‐ sign standards primarily relate to the numerous imaginary safety‐related surfaces and separation distances. Facility Maintenance: Airports are required to maintain their pavement surfaces for the useful life of those pavements. The pavements require routine maintenance and occasionally must be rehabilitated or reconstructed. This category includes maintenance of airport structures and landside facilities. Support Facilities: This category includes all airport‐related facilities that do not naturally fall into the airside or landside categories, including elements such as fuel facilities, access and circu‐ lation, and general on‐airport land use. DRAFT - Facility Requirements 3-1 Recognizing that many facility needs are based upon demand (rather than a point in time), the require‐ ments are expressed in short‐term (years 1‐5), intermediate term (years 6‐10), and long‐term (years 11‐ 20).
