Her research has revealed that ultrafine particle pollution coming from planes’ ex- haust affects communities miles away from the airport. She also found studies showing higher occurrences of brain, lung and breast cancer have been recorded, as well as higher rates of hospitalization for children with lung-relat- ed illnesses in flight paths. Wagner is confident that the Phoenix rul- ing is a positive step forward in creating a better air traffic system. “For far too long, the FAA has held all the cards and had all the power,” she said. “They’ve had their way. Now the courts are saying no.” Wagner said, until recently, residents in flight paths have often been silenced. “They’re an ignored, forgotten and abused group of citizens who deserve a voice, and health and enjoyment, and it’s all been taken away,” she said. Wagner hopes that cities in the region af- fected by the airport will now move forward to pursue change. “We’ve got new wind under our wings,” she said.

Green Acres Apartments severely damaged in early morning fire; damage estimated at $500,000 By Patrick Robinson The Green Acres apartments complex at 5656 California Ave. S.W. suffered extensive damage from a fire in the early morning hours of Fri., Sept. 29. The fire, which a Seattle Fire Dept. spokesper- son said damaged at least six units, started on the exterior of the building around 1 am, and spread to the interior. No one was hurt in the blaze and no cause has yet been determined. The cause of the fire was ruled undetermined by investigators. Total estimated loss is $500,000 to structure and $2,000 to landscaping. It was unclear how many residents have been displaced by the damage, but the Red Cross has responded and will assist those that need help.
