Schock Company, Inc., �containing informata.on on �he MSP Land Acquisition and Relocation�Projects. OFFER MEETINGS As of September 27, 1994, 138 out of 144 homeowners in Phase I have accepted their offers. The six (6) offers that have not accepted include: three (3) that have not been presented, and three (3) that have been presented but not yet accepted. With the exception of the six (6) outstanding offers, these totals represent the completion of all acquisition and relocation offers for Phase I of the Part 150 Project in New Ford Town and Rich Acres. � ACQUISITION & RELOCATION �LOSING UPDATE As of September 28, 1994, there have been a total of 136 acquisition closings conducted. In addition to the acquisition closings, a total of 90 homeowners have closed on their relocation homes. ACOUISITIf�N CLOSINGS WDSCO would like to clarify the dollar amount deducted from a homeowner�s equity check at the acquisition closing, and held in escrow for the final water bill. The Title company closer, prior to your acquisition closing, will contact the City of Richfield Water Department for an estimate of your final water bill. This amount determines the amount to be held in escrow. If the estimate is low, the closer withholds 5100 in escrow. If the estimate is high, the closer withholds $150 to insure the entire bill is paid a�ter tile home is vacated. Any monies remaining will be refunded to the homeowner by the Title company as soon as the final water bill has been paid. . RELOCATION CLOSING Each Relocation Consultant within the WDSCO team works very hard to ensure that each relocation closing goes as smoothly as possible. As a homeowner, it is very important to notify your Relocation Consultant as soon as a purchase agreement or lease has been signed on a relocation home. Once WDSCO has received a copy of the purchase agreement or lease, the Relocation Consultant will order the DSS (Decent, Safe, and Sanitary) inspection, and request the funds needed from MAC for your __ scheduled closing or lease dar_e. . _ __. ,1 W.D.

Without a minimum of thirty (30) days notice prior to closing, WDSCO and MAC may not be able to guarantee the availability of your relocation funds on the day of your closing. PHASE II FUNDING As of September 28, 1994, there is no word on additional federal funds to begin Phase II of the buyout. The Metropolitan Airport Gommission reports that the Federal Aviation Administration is working diligently to make funds available. More information will be available for next month�s update. BUYOUT FEEDBACK Q. If I am a renter within e project area, am I eligible to rent-back from MAC once my ninety (90) day rent-free period expires? . A. Unfortunately, the rent-back period is only available for homeowners who have occupied their home and have�not located and closed on a ,replacement home. • Q. Will the $100.00 damage deposit collected for the rent- free/rent-back� time period automatically be refunded to me once I turn in my keys? A. The damage deposit will be issued within twenty-one (21) days of the final walk through inspections date, as long as the house and yarcl have been left clean of debris and damage free. ;`�C�1F� '`� f�': :�:'�_.r -�- x , p� —''�v �� .a, .. r .

The �meeting was called to order at 8:00 o'clock P.M. The following me,mbers were preaent: Beaty, Fitzer, Leuman, Olsen and Stein. Commission members Olin and Surrisi were absent. Also present was City Administrator Tom Lawell. II APPROVAL OF MINIITES Commissioner Olsen moved approval of the August 2� minutes. I Commissioner Stein seconded the motion. AYES: 5 NAYS: 0 ACI�TO�I,LDGE RECEIPT OF VARIOIIS REPORTS/ CORRESPONDENCL 6, 1994 The Commission acknowledged receipt of the ANOMS Report for July, 1994. It was noted that Mendota Heights residents recorded 221 noise complaints with MAC for the morith. Administrator Lawell commented that the full effect of the City's recent ma.gnet mailing will not be evident until the August ANOMS report. I Commissioner Fitzer commented on the various jet aircraft types and their relative noise production. In answer to a question, Commissioner Fitzer noted that Northwest Airlines flies both the DC-9 and 727 aircraft. Other '�noisy" aircraft which routinely turn up in the report are aircraft operated by other carriers. �I I The Commission discussed the flight track graphics attached to the ANOMS report which show the number of aircraft flying outside of the MAC defined corridor. The data showed that 698 aircraft penetrated the southern boundary during July while only 9 aircraft penetrated the proposed 095�I;degree northern boundary. Commission members were skeptical of these findings. It was noted that the FAA considers "normal�� any flight track deviation of +/- 5 degrees. Airport Relatioas Commission September 14, 1994 Page 2 The Commission acknowledged receipt of the NOISE Newsletter for August, 1994. It was noted that Eagan Mayor Tom Egan has been appointed as the President of the NOISE organ- ization for the coming year. The Commission acknowledged receipt of the Richfield Part 150 Buyout Update for August, 1994. The Commission acknowledged receipt of the Metropolitan Airports Commission 1993 Report to the Public. It was noted that Executive Director Hamiel's remarks in the report indicate that efforts are underway to expand the flow of international freight traffic through�MSP. Commissioner Olsen questioned whether it was in the best interest of the public to actively seek increased air traffic and subsequent additional air noise into the region. Commissioner Leuman indicated that a significant amount of freight leaves the Twin Cities by truck en route to other airports which provide direct flights to foreign countries. The Commission acknowledged receipt of the District Representation Map for MAC Commissioners. Administrator Lawell noted that the MAC representative for our area is Mr. Louis Miller of Apple Valley. It was the consensus of the Commission to invite Mr. Miller to an upcoming Airport Relationa Commission meeting. Administrator Lawell indicated he would try to arrange for Mr. Miller and Councilmember Jill Smith to attend the October Commission meeting. The Commission acknowledged receipt of information of the Northwest Airlines DC-9 hushkit program. Administrator Lawell noted that the information was prepared by Northwest Airlines, not the MAC. The rate of conversion is expected to be approxima.tely six airplanes per month. Chair Beaty asked about the level of noise reduction anticipated as a result of the hushkit installation. Commissioner Fitzer indicated that he has heard the maximum anticipated noise reduction as a result of installing a hushkit package is approximately 50 percent. 'G Airport Relations Commission September 14, 1994 Page 3 CONTINIIED DISCIISSION OF RSCENT biPCA COMPLAINT REGARDING AIRCRAFT EMISSIONS The Commission acknowledged a memo from Administrator Lawell dated September 8, 1994 regarding the status of this incident. It was noted that in a letter to the City dated September 1, 1994, the Mr. John Morrill of the MPCA has again declined to become involved in investigating the recent complaint that aircraft flying over the City occasionally emit some type of fuel or chemical which damages exterior finishes on automobiles. I Administrator Lawell indicated that he will contact a representative of the MPCA division which deals with airport related issues to see if they would intervene on our behalf in this matter. Commissioner Beaty indicated that it may also become necessary to involve our area legislatora in this ma.tter as well. i DISCIISS LLTTER TO GIIBLRNATORIAL CANDIDATLS RLGARDING AIRPORT RLLATi3D ISSUES i i Administrator Lawell explained that the Commission had recently adopted an Airport Noise Plan of Action and within the plan there is a section which envisions the eventual appointment of a City resident to the MAC. Since'most all MAC Commissioners are appointed by the Governor, the Commiasion has decided to ask the top candidates in the upcoming gubernatorial race for their comments and position relative to the airport. II i The Commission reviewed a draft letter to the gubernatorial candidates and offered a number of helpful suggestions. Commissioner Beaty noted that the letter should stress the need to establish an equitable distribution of aircraft noise within the Metropolitan area. In addition,',it was noted that the letter should discuss the inappropriate geographic distribution of current MAC Commissioners with respect to the air noise issue. Lastly, it was suggested that the letter call for an investment of state resources to accelerate the airlines' conversion from older noisy Stage II aircraft to more quiet Stage III aircraft. Commissioners agreed to call Administrator Lawell with any other�comments or suggestions they may have in the coming week. � Airport Relations Commission September 14, 1994 Page 4 IIPDATL ON IMPLE��NTATION OF NON-SIMIILTANEOIIS AIRCRAFT DEPARTURE PROCEDIIRES Administrator Lawell updated the Commission on the status of having the MAC and the FAA implement a non-simultaneous crossing procedure for aircraft departing runways i1L and 11R. Previously the MAC had indicated that the FAA was considering the non-simultaneous departure procedure along with a simul•taneous departure procedure which would establish a northern corridor boundary of 095 degrees. In analyzing this package, the FAA had indicated to the MAC that a full Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) would be necessary. In a letter to the City dated August 30, 1994, Mr. John Foggia, Manager of MAC's Aviation Noise Program, indicates that the FAA has now been convinced that the non- simultaneous procedure can be considered independent of the simultaneous procedure and therefore will only be subject to a less exhaustive Environment Assessment Worksheet (EAW). Furthermore, the MAC has pledged to the FAA to provide "resources necessary to help expeditiously implement the crossing maneuver". It was the consensus of the Commission Lawell forward a letter to Mr. Foggia finally providing us with a reply to 0 asking to be kept promptly up-to-date progresses. VLRBAL IIPDATFsS that Administrator thanking him for ur questions and as this matter The Commission acknowledged receipt of a copy of City Resolution No. 94-57 - A RESOLIITION IIRGING THL STATE OF MINNESOTA AI�TD TS}3 METROPOLITAN AIRPORTS COMMISSION TO NEGOTIATE A RAPID CONVRRSION TO AN ALL STAGE III QIIILTER AIRCR.AFT FLEisT AT MINNEAPOLIS/ ST. PAIIL INTLRNATIONAL AIRPORT. This resolution was formally adopted by the Mendota Heights City Council on September 6, 1994 as recommended by the Airport Relations Commission. Administrator Lawell noted�an amendment to the resolution as adopted by the Council. In the final "Be It Further Resolved" clause the MAC is encouraged to adopt an ordinance which will prohibit the operation of noisy Stage II aircraft at MSP effective January 1, 2000. This provision was added to insure that all airlines using MSP in 2000 are fully Stage III. ;�� : �. Airport Relations Commission September 14, 1994 Page 5 Administrator Lawell announced that the MAC and MASAC will hold a Joint Meeting on Tuesday, October 4, 1994. In that this meeting coincides with a regularly scheduled City Council meeting, it was suggested that members of' the Mendota Heights Airport Relations Commission attend the meeting to represent the City. Commissioners Leuman and Fitzer indicated they would probably be able to attend. Several other Commissioners indicated they would try to attend.

Conversion to Ouieter Aircraft Fleet A. MAC fuads have been used to financially assist�Northwest Airlines in .' weathering a financiai crisis, and additional state funding may be used to permit Northwest Airli.nes to build facilities and boost the economy of northern NI'wnesota.. Would you ad�ocate an equal amount o€ assistance to the metropolitan area by using� state fands to aid Northwest Airlines in accelerating its conversion to the quieter Stage III jet aircraft? B. Would you support the MAC's adoption of an ordinance which would eliminate the use of Stage II jet aircraft after the year 2000? � Our residents acl�owledge that we are a part of the greater�metropolitan azea, and that the MAC must adopt policies and pracedures; being mi.ndful of the economic well-being of the enfire area.

It is this document which describes the future expansion options at MSP including the possible future construction of additional runways and terminal facilities. I In the last few weeks the MAC has formally released for public review a draft copy of the LTCP AED. The document is approximately 200 pages in length and therefore has not been attached. In the alternative, attached please find a copy of the Idocument's Executive Summary along with several selected graphics� Of course, the major issue within the draft LTCP AED of interest to Mendota Heights is future runway construction. The document describes the differential impacts of adding a new north parallel runway at MSP vs. adding a new north/south runway along Cedar Avenue. While the summary seems to favor the construction of a new north/south runway, at this point their can be no�assurances given as to what MAC will ultimately decide. I A public hearing on this draft document has been scheduled by the MAC for October 26, 1994 at 7:00 p.m. at Washburn High School, 201 W. 49th Street, Minneapolis. The written comment period on the draft document is open through November 25, 1994. The Metropolitan Airport Commission will make a selection of the preferred alternative in February, 1995. Given the importance of the LTCP to our City's long term airnoise exposure prospects, it is crucial that we actively participate in the review of this document. Suggestions�offered by the Airport Relations Commission will be forwarded to the City Council for discussion at their October 18th meeting. One or more Commission members may wish to attend the upcoming Council meeting. In addition, we shauld discuss the need to mobilize noise impacted city resident� to at�end and participate in the October 26th MAC sponsored p�blic hearing.

TF�e MAG is updating its 30-year development pian for�#he aitport — known as a lang-term comprehensive plan — to meet the requirements of the Legislature in the Dual Track Aiepo�t Planning Process, � The 1989 Mirtnesota Legisiature directed the MAC and Metropalitan Council ta engage in a seven-year planning process to determine how best to meet the �egion's future aviation demand. The agencies were directed to compare expansion of the current airpart with building a new replacement airport, and make a recommendation to the Legistature in July '1996. i The MAC witt use the environmental evatua#ion found in this documer�t, along with �ope�ationai and cost data developed for the long-term comprehensive plan, to select a best development plan for expansion of the Minneapolis-St. Paut tnternaiional Aitport, That decision wi#t occut in February 1895. That ptan, atang with a new airport plan, a no-action option and other feasible atternatives will' be compared during 1995 ior the 1996 report to the Legislature. � Alternatives sfudied As required by law, this is the second comprehensive plan study done by MAC for'MSP since the Duat Track process began in 1989. This secand MSP comprehensive plan study is an update of an earlier one completed in 1991. The MAC and Metropolitan Council in July 1993 �evised and updated the region's 30-year forecasts af aviatian demand. The MAC is required by Dual Track teg'rslation to update the 1991 plan to take into account any changes that might be necessary as a result of the� revised forecasts . Changes in the forecasts were not substantial enaugh to warrant altering the concepts behind the six devefopment attematives tor MSP wttich were previousty studied. However, two of ths plans — those proposing a second south parallel runway (No. 3 and 4) — were drapped from corisideration this time because of significant operational and noise concems discovered during the Iast study. The basic concepts of the four remaining alternatives evaluated in this environm �ntal study are: Altemative 1-- Construction of a new �,700-faot north parallel �unway and an additionat passenger terminat east of the exist'sng terminat. � Alternative 2-- Construction of a stew ?,700-foox north pacaite! ;runway and a replacement terminal which would be devetoped on the west side of the airport. � A/ternaiive 5-- Construction af a new 8,000-foat north-south runway to be tocated on the west side of the airport and an additional passenger terminal east of the existing terminai. � Qraft AED - MSP �ong•Term Compsehensive Plan i �..`_ -� 14 -_ � Atternative &-- Constructia» of a new $,000-foot north-south rur�wa.y ta be Eocated on the west side of the airport and a replaoement terminal which would be developed on the west side of the airport. � An iilustration of each of these alternatives can be found in Figures 2-4 in Appendix B. Environmenta/ eva/uation Each of the four alternatives was examined for enviranmental impacts in 19 areas, and where necessary snd possible, potentiat mitigatian measures are disaussed, � The '! 9 areas of evafuation were: air quality; archaeologiea! resources; biotic comm Inities; bird-aircraft hazards; canstruction impacts; endangered and threatened species; energy supply and natwat resources; flood ptains; historical and architectural resources; land use; noise; park and recreation lands; socioeco�omic; t�anspartation access; visuat; surface water quatity; groundwater; wetEands, snd wiidiife refuge. . � , The environmental evaluation did not reveal any critical finding that wauld preclude development of any of the alte�natives, tt did reveat differences betweert the four MSP development alterna#ives. Areas of significant differences between the aitematives are as faflows: � • Archaeotagical -- The canstruction of light signais ict the approach zones ieading up to proposed runways would result in some disturbance of archaeological sites in Fort Snelling 5tate Parlc. Aiternatives 't and 2 wouid impact two sites; Atternaxives 5 and 6 would impact ane site. � Bird-Airc�aft Haxard -- A bird-strike occurs when birds coitide with airaraft. Atternatives 5 and 6 have a highe� potential fa� bird strikes than do Alternatives 1� nd 2. Construation -- The alternatives which include a west terminal (2 and,6) have fewer const�uctian impacts than the alternatives which include a second terminat just east of the existing terminal (1 and 5). That is because af the prablems associated with cor�tinuing smooth operation of the existing termina! and raadway systein in the middle of a majar cons#�uctian area. � HistaricallArahitectu�rai -- Federal law prohibits the harmfui use af Natiana4 Register historic praperties/dis#ricts by federally-funded transportation projects �unless there is na feasibie and prudent aEtemative. Aiterr�atives 1 ar�d � wauld� require destruction of buiidings in the Fort Snelling National Historic Landmark District and the Old Fort Sneiling NationaE Historic Dist�Ict. Alternatives 5 and 6 would have no iinpact an these districts. Each alternative would remove the old Wold-Chamberlain te�minal district. . I ! Noise -- More peopte witl be impacted by noise unde� Atternatives 1 and 2. With'rn the DNI. 60 noise contour for the Year 2005, 3,030 more people will be impacted by noise under Atternatives '! snd 2 than under AEternatives 5 and 6, Within the DNL 65 naise contour, 670 more people are impacted under Alternatives 5 and 6, than under Atternatives 1 and 2. � • Park and Rece�eation Areas -- Fede�a! law prohibits the use of publicly-owned park and � recreation areas for federally-funded transportation projects unfess there is no feasibte and prudent alternative. Alternatives i a�d 2 would adversely impact two park and recreaiion areas; Aiterna#ives 5 and 6 woutd have no impact. J Draft AED - MSP �ang-Term Comprehensive Plan ii � Socioeconomic -- More residents would be displaced by Alternatives 1 and 2; more businesses would be dispiaced by Alternatives 5 a�d 6. Aiternative 5 would displace a low of 402 residents, Alternative 2 would displace a high of 1,144 residents. Alternative 1 would displace a low of five businesses with a total of 60 employees; Alternative 6 would displace a high of 77 businesses with a total of 2,9i 9 employees. Alternatives 2 and 6 would cost about 5167 miliion more to develop than Alternatives 1 and 5. • I Transportat�on Access -- Average travel times for the alternatives are essentially the same during the peak period, for the metropolitan area as a whole. Alte�natives 1 and 5 are six minutes slower than Alternatives 2 and 6 from downtown Minneapolis and five minutes faster f�om downtown St.Paul during the peak period. The iwest terminal requires construction of a new interchange at Highways 77 and 62 Crosstown to provide access from the regional highway system. � • G�oundwater — Bedrock under the area where a new west terminal would be built makes Alternatives 2 and 6 preferable to 1 and 5. Bedrock would make the groundwater less susceptible to pote�tial contamination during fueling operations than the softer ground below the area where the second east terminal wouli be built. o Wetlands -- Each of the alternatives impacts wetlands. Alternative 1 fares the best in this category, impacting 29.1 acres of wetiand, while Alternative 6 is the worst, impacting 46.9 acres. A chart summarizing the findings for all 19 evaluation criteria follows at the end of this summary. Hearing end Approva/ Process The contents of this draft envi�onmentai document will be �eviewed by the Met�opolitan Airports Commission, a public hearing will be held on it, a final version of the document will be �eviewed by the Commissio�, and the environmental analysis will be part of the decision to adopt one of the development alternatives for the long-term comprehensive plan for the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.

ALTERNATIVES A. General Description The Long-Term Comprehensive Plan (LTCP) alternatives for the Minneapolis-St.� Paul international Airport (MSP) consist of a new runway, taxiways, aprons, internal roadways, new terminal, concourses, building areas and treatment facilities, and supporting infrastructure improvements (changes in g�ound transportation facilities) to accommodate the future air transportation needs of the region. The location of the existing airport is shown in Figure 1. . B. Alternatives Under Consideration The alternatives selected in the scoping process for further study and evaluation are Alternatives 1, 2, 5 and 6(see Scoping Decision Document, Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport Long- Term Comprehensive Plan, March 1994). � Alternative 1- Construction of a second 7,700-foot north-parallel runway north of, and parallet to, the existing north-parallel runway, an additional passenger terminal east of the�existing terminal, and satellite gates and a passenger parking/drop-off facility on the west side of .the airport (Figu�e 2). The new runway would function principally as an ar�ival (landing) runway� Alternative 2- Construction of a second 7,7000-foot north-parallel runway as described in Alternative 1; a replacement passenger terminal building on the west side of the airport; and a passenger parking/drop-off facility on the east side of the airport (Figure 3). The runways would function as in Alternative 1. Placing the passenger terminal on the west side of the airport creates a"new front door" for MSP. � � Alternative 5- Construction of an 8,000-foot north/south runway on the west_side of MSP; an additional east passenger terminal building; and satellite gates and a passenger pa�king/drop-off facility on the west side of the airport (Figure 4). The new runway would be used almost exclusively to and from the south for both take-offs and landings. � Alternative 6- Const�uction of an 8,000-foot north/south runway on the west side of MSP; a replacement west passenger terminal building; and a passenger parking/d�op-off facility on the east side of the airport (Figure 5). The new runway would function the same as Alte�native 5. Placing the passenger terminal on the west side of the airport creates a"new front door" fo� MSP. C. Alternatives Eliminated The following alternatives were eliminated by MAC in the Scoping Decision Do.cument on March 21, 1994. Altemative 3- Construction of a second south-parallel runway south of, and parallel to, the existing south-parallel runway; an additional east passenger te�minal building; and satellite gates and a passenger parking/drop-off facility on the west side of the airport (Figure 6). The new runway would fu�ction principally as a landing runway. The existing south parallel would function principally as a departure (take-off) runway. � Altemative 4- Construction of a second south-parallel runway as described in Alternative 3, a replacement west passenger terminal building; and a passenger parking/drop-off � acility on the east D�aft AED - MSP Long-Term Comprehensive Plan I I-1 � �" J � ; . :. � � � � �� side of the airport (Figure 7). The �unways would function as in Alter�ative 3. Placing the passenger terminal on the west side of the airport creates a"new f�ont door"i for MSP. LTCP Alternatives 3 and 4 were eliminated from further consideration because of significant operational and noise concerns brought to light during the update of the LTCP alternatives for MSP. These concerns result from the westward stagger of the new runway� by approximately 5,000 feet from the landing threshold fo� the existing Runway 29L and the assumption that the airp�rt would operate with departures using the existing parallel runway (closest to the terminal area) end arrivals using the new pa�allel runway. The �eason for the stagger of the �unway is to accommodate the approach surface clearance of the elevated terrain in the Fort Snelling National Cemetery. The cemetery has been declared eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and is the third most active cemetery in the National Cemetery System. The cemetery's 436.3 acres hold over 96,000 graves. The use of the new runway for landings when the airport is operating to the northwest places landing aircraft close to the area of greatest wake turbulence from departures on Runway 29L. In addition, wake turbulence produced by landing aircraft could drift to the takeoff runway (29L), where aircraft would be breaking ground on departure. Interaction with wake turbulence by aircraft in close proximity to the ground is a significant safety issue. These situations would result in an additional dependency between the �unways, which would reduce the capacity. Also, the airlines expressed concern during the preparation of the LTCP for the safety of aircraft as they pass ove� the higher ground of the national cemetery when landing on the new runway to the northwest or when departing ove� it to the southeast. � Another operational concern involves the penet�ation of the Terminal Instrument P�ocedures (TERPS) approach surface to the south parallel runway from aircraft on the taxiway between the existing Runway 11 R-29L and the new �unway. This would mean that while a�ircraft are landing on the south parallel �unway, Taxiway B(planned as a full length parallel taxiway to Runway 11 R- 29L on the south side of the runway) would not be usable in the area of the stagger between the south parallel runway and Runway 11 R-29L. This would be a significant operational problem. A south parallel runway would also generate significant additional noise i� pacts for south Minneapolis and Richfield. The population within the Year 2000 ONL 60 noise contour for Alternatives 3 and 4, generated during the preparation of the LTCP, would be� 49,250 persons. This would be over 10,000 more persons than Alternative 6. Noise impacts would be even greater, if use of the new south �unway was changed during northwest-flow conditions to accommodate most of the take-offs (in order to alleviate some ope�ational and capacity concerns). This change would move aircraft departing to the northwest approximately 5,000 feet closer to Minneapolis and Richfield when they begin their "takeoff roll." � This staggered �unway layout would also require that the �AA runv: ay safety area and object-free area be designed to cross Trunk Highway 77 (TH 77), also know� as Cedar Avenue. The design � would require a"tunneling" of TH 77 beneath a bridge-like structure that would support the required safety areas. This would bring airport facilities across Cedar Avenue into Richfield and would significantly complicate access to the new west terminal area. � D.

It was further noted that this meeting fell on the night of a regularly scheduled City Council meeting and that it was unlikely our regular MASAC representatives, Councilmember Jill Smith and Mayor Mertensotto, would be able to attend. In order to insure that the City was well represented, Commission members were asked if they could attend on behalf of the City. Commissioner Fitzer and Leuman indicated they would and one or two additional members stated they would try to attend. In the end, Councilmember Smith chose to attend the joint� MAC/MASAC meeting despite its conflict with the City Council meeting. In that Councilmember Smith and MAC Commissioner Louis Miller are expected to be present at our October 12th meeting, it would probably be helpful if we could start our meeting with a'discussion of the accomplishments of the MAC/MASAC joint meeting.i By way of background, a copy of the October 4th meeting agenda and a copy of MASAC newly developed goals and objectives are attached. ACTION REQIIIRED Discuss with those who were present the content and accomplishments of the October 4, 1994 MAC/MASAC jointjmeeting. '� : CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS i �� • October 5, 1994 TO: Airport Relations Commission mbers FROM: Tom Lawell, City Administra SIIBJECT: Continued Discussion of Recent MPCA Complaint Regarding Aircraft Emissions DISCIISSION As discussed at our last meeting, the City recently received a letter from Mr. John Morrill, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), stating again that his agency is unwilling to undertake an investigation regarding a complaint received from a resident of Lexington Heights Apartments, 2330 Lexington Avenue. As you will recall, the complaint was received on July 26, 1994 alleging that aircraft flying over the area were emitting some typeiof fuel or chemical which was damaging the exterior finish on vehicles parked outside. After our last meeting I indicated I would contact a representative of the MPCA division which typically �deals with airport related matters to further discuss this matter. I have spoken with Mr. Charlie Kennedy and he indicated he was already aware of the complaint. He further noted that the MPCA has received aimilar complaints in the past and has periodically conducted extensive air quality tests in the vicini:ty of the airport. I Mr. Kennedy described the most recent test which was conducted between October and December 1993 at the Wenonah School; 5625 23rd Avenue South in Minneapolis. This site is much closer to the airport than the Lexington Heights Apartment complex. Mr. Kennedy has provided us with a copy for the study's finding�which are attached to this memo. Additionally, I have contacted MAC directly to discuss this issue. By Wednesday I hope to have additional information regarding air quality and aircraft emissions to share with the Commission.

Paul Intemarional Airport. The study was performed by staff of the Air Quality Division by reseazcbing literature� on the known characteristics of aircraft emissions, and by collecting air samples at the Wenonah Elementary School in South Minneapolis during the months of October. November and December, 1993. Samples co�lected at the schoo3 were analyzed for pollutant content and campared with air semples collected during the same time period at ather me�o area monitoring sites. � Information obtained dvring the litera.tuze research indicated that the combustion of jet fuel produces emissions compased of hydrocarbons, particulates, pitrogcn oxides and carbon monoxide. On a nationwide basis, jet aircrafit engines account for l�ss than 0.4 percent of the total ground lcvel {0 to 3,000 feet) hydrocarbon, nitrogen oxide and carbon monoxide emissions in the country. Potential impacts on air quality at ground level include smog fomiation from hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides, and higher cflncentrations of catbon monoxide. In general, ihe consensus among the existing body of Iiterature indicates that aircraft emissions are not violating localized aznbient air quality standazds near airports, however, increases in the number of supersonic aircraft flight may pose a global threat to the upper-ozone layer due to their operations in th� stratosphere (60,000 to 90,OOQ feet). The air monitoring at the Wenonah School focused on the collection of hydrocarbons and pazticulates to address common complaints regarding the emission and deposition of fuel, oil and particuiate matter from aircraft. Nitrogen oxides were not sampled because there are no short term health effects criteria for tius pollu#ant, and because long term concentrations are largely affectcd by motor vehicies. Similazly, carbon monoxide was also not sampled for because motor vehicles are known to be the predominant saurce of these emissions. To augmeat the collection of air samples, airport operations data obtained from the Metropolitan Airports Commission was used to ensuie that a representative amount of aircraft activity occurred over the Wenonah School on the dates that air sampling was conducted. In summary, the air mQnitoring samples collected at the Wenonah School during the study supported the findings in the literature reseazch. Hydrocarbon and parciculate conccntrations were monitored in low levels. A compazison of concentrations across the metro-area during the study period revealed that levels at the Wenonah School were consistently below or comparable to levels monitored at other metro area sites. Based on the results of the study, staff have concluded that Iocalized air quality conditions near the airport are not being measurably impacted by aircraft operahons. This conclusion is most readily explained by a high degree of airborne dispersion; moderate levels of emissions, and the effectiveness af federal emission standazds for aircraft engines. This balance of this report includes discussion on aiscraft cmissions, study methodology, air monitoring and analysis equipment, the air analysis resttlts, aztd the specific findings and conclusions reached during the study. OCT 07 '94 10�27AM PCA AIR �UALITY DIVISION II P.S MSP Air Quallty Analysis BACKGROUND Intent This study was initiatcd� in response to an ongoing history of complaints about aircraft emissions from residents living in, the vicinity of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP). In general, the complaints facus on ambient air quality and the dumping of jet fuel from in-flight aircraft. The issue of jet fuel dumping was addressed in an earlier investigaxion, with the results indicating that this was not a common practice at MSP. The intent of this study was to focus on addressing the issue of air quality near the airport by researching relative literature � and by collecting and analyzing air samples neaz MSP for pollutant content. � Monitoring Site Location The Wenonah Elementary School was selected as the monitoring site due to its iminediate location under a heavily used flight path, monitoring siting criteria involving setback distances from trees and other objects that disperse particulate matter, and its relative inaccessibility to prevent vandalism. The school is located at 5625 23rd Avenue Sauth in Minneapolis (Figure 1). The predominant land use in the surrounding area is residential. Minneapolis-St. Paul Iaternational Airport , Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport is the region's primary air carrier facility. Its proximity to a significant amount of residential land use has historically created a series of local issues ranging from noise pallution to air quality concerns. The airport, along with a series of reliever airports, falls under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC). The number of annual aircraft operations (arriva�s and depamires} at the airport currently numbers about 415,000, with annual passenger enplanements numbering about 11,500,000. � AIRCRAFT EMISSIONS J'et aircraft engine emissions sire the by-products of the combustion of jet fuel, a liquid material similar to kerosene and diesel number two fuel characteristically Ies9 refined and Iess combustible than traditional automobile fuel normally produced by the distillation of petroleum� Jet aircraft engines combust jet fuel in a process that results in a voluminous reazwardly discharge of heated air and exhaust gasses to producc forward propulsion, and subsequently atlows the aircraft to achieve lift and movement through the air. A brief overview of the components of jet engine emissions and their regulation is provided below. I National Ambient Air Quality Standards The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates ambient air quality National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). These standards define the required to prevent adverse impact on humaa health, in addition to preventing a� other elements of the enviroament snch as vegetation. 2 ceries of �l of air quatity �se impacts on i OCT 07 '94 10�29AM PCA AIR GIUALITY DIVISION P.7 MSP Air Quality Analysis $ydrocarbons Hydrocarbons are orgF►rtic compaunds conta.ining only carbon and hydrogen. Hydrocazbons are common byproducts of petroleum-based combustian processes. Industry and conimerce are� also significant sources of hydrocazbons. Concentrations of hydrocarbons in the atmosphere are measured in parts per billion (ppb). At a locallevel, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides can react chemically with sunlight to form ground-level ozone, more commonly Irnown as smog. Ozone is not cmitted directly in to the air but is formed thraugh complex chemical reactions between emissions of hydrocarbans and nitrogen oxides in the presence af sunlight, particularly dvring the warmer months of the year. The most common areas of concern to human health involve nose, throat and Iung uritation. There is no NAAQS for hydrocarbons, instead the presence of hydrocarbons is regulated indirectly by an ozone standard, and at the source by an emission standazd. Minnesota curtently attains the ozone standard at all monitoring locations. Several hydrocarbons cammonly emitted to ambient air may have direct adverse effects on human health. The EPA is studying these compounds and is in the process of developing emission Iimitations for the most important sources of these chemicals. H drocarbon emissions from aircraft and motor vehicles aze re ulated at the sour ie b the EPA and Y g , Y the Department of Transportatian. The EPA is responsible for establishing aircrai� emission standards, while the Department of Transportation has assigned the respoasibility to enforce EPA standards for aircraft to the Fcdcral Aviation Administration. � For the purposes of this study 9everal hydrocazbons commonly associated wi#h the combustion of petroleum-based fuels were selected for analysis. This group, commonly referred�to as the BTEX group, consists of the hydrocarbons benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, o-xylene and �m-xylene/p- xylene. I Particulates Particulate matter includes dust, dirt, soot, smoke and liquid droplets directly emitted into the air by sources such as faetories, power plants, cars, constraction activity, fires and natural windbiown dust. Particles formed in the atmosphere by condensation or the txansformation of emitted gases such as sulfur dioxide and hydrocarbons are also considered particulate matter. The most �common areas of concern to human health include breathing and respiratory symptoms, aggravation of existing and cazdiovascular disease and alterations in the body's defense systems against foreign materiats. The EPA uses the term PM-10 to measure concentrations of pazticulates, quanti£ying the leveis in mierograms per cubie meter (micrograms/m3). Concentrations of PM-10 include �only those particles with aerodynamic diameter smaller than 10 micrometers. These smaller particles are generally believed to be responsible for most of the adverse health effects of particulate matter because of their abiiity to reach the lower regions af the respiratory tract. Particulates are regulated by a 24-hour NAAQS of 150 micrograms/m3. Currently most of the metro area attains the standard for particulates, with the exception being a small aiea located in Sai.nt Paul. 4 OCT 0? '94 10�30AM PCR RIR QUALITY DIVISIDN Nitrogea Oxidos � MSP Air Quality A�alysis As mentioned in thc previous discussion on hydrocarbons, nitragen a�cides can mix with sunlight and hydrocazboas to form ground-Ievel azone, or smog. Minnesota currentiy is in attainment �f the NAAQS far ozone at all monitoring locations. In addition to th� potentiai impacts to human health associatcd with smog, nitragen o�tides cmitted into the upper atmosphere fram supersonic jet aircraft may contribute to a breakdown o£the proteetive layer of ozone surrounding the earth. Nitrogen o�tides rnay also have direct health effects at high ambient levels. The EPA has established an annual average concentration limit of 50 ppb. Na violations of �is Iimit have ever been measured in Minnesota. Carban Mano�ide Carbon mono�de is a coiarless, odarless and poisonavs gas groduceci by incomplete burning of cazbons in fuels. Carbon monoxide enters the bloo�stream and reduces the delivery of oxygen to the body's organs and tissues. Eighty percent af natianwitie carban monoxade emissions are from transportatic�n sflurces, with the lazgest contribution coming from motar vehicics. Other cazbon monox,i.de sources include wood-burnin� stoves, incincrators atid industrial sources. The health effects of carbon monaxide are due to its direct toxicity duri�g localized short-ierm exposure. Cancentrations af carbon monoxide are measured in parts per mitlion {ppm}. Moaitoring and madeling studies indicate short-term carbon manoxide cancentrarions attributable to aircraft emissions in areas in and araund major ai�garts ta which th� public has acc�ss do not exce�d 5 ppm, This compares ta the one-haur NAAQS of 35 ppm, and the 24-hour NAAQS of 9 ppm. � ` - � : � 1 ! ! Moaitoring Equipmeni Two t3rpes ofmoztitors were used to collect ambient air samp2es at the site. Detailed air analysis of all the samples callected during the study periad was performcd by sta:ff of the Air Quality Lab located at the main offices ofthe Minnesata Palludan Contral Agency in St. Paul. In£onnation on the operation of each of the manitors is provided beiaw. « . • • . .� _ -� . - The hydrocarban sampler cailects �. valume of air by pumping ambient air into an evacuated sphere at a constant rate for 24 hours.

A comparison of hydrocarbon concentrations across the metro area during the study period revealed that levels at the Wenonah School were consistently below or compazable to levels monitored at other metro area sites. Based on these results, hydrocarbon concentrations near the airport do not appear to be measurably impacted by aircraf� operations. . o Particulate concentradons were monitored at levels well below the NAAQS PM-10 st�ndard for a 24-hour period. A compazison of particulate concentrations across the metro area during the study period indicated that levels at the Wenonah School were consistently below or comparable to levels monitored at other metra area sites. Based on these results, particulate concentrations near the airport do not apgear to.be measurably impacted by aircraft operations. o Thc low levels of particulate and hydrocarbon concentrations monitored during the study aze generally consistent with the conclusions discovered during the literature review. Based on the xesults of the study, staf�have concluded that localized air quality conditians near the airport aze not being measurably impacted by aircraft operations. This conclusion is most readily explained by a high degree of airborne dispersion, modere�e levels of emissions, and the effectiveness of federal emission standards for aircraft engiaes. 13 A � OCT 07 '94 10�34AM PCA AIR �UALITY DIVISION �I P.17 Air Quality Analysis REFERENCES "Air Pollution, Global Pollution From Jet Aircraft Could Increase in the Future," Resources, Community, and Economics Development Division, U.S. General Accounting Oi�ice, Washington, District of Columbia, January, 1992 "Control of Air Pollution.From Aircraft; Amendment to Stanclards (40 CFR Part i7)," Environmental Protection Agency, Federal Register, December, 1980 "Control of Air Pollution From Aircraft and Aircraft Engines; Emission Standards and Test Procedures (40 CFR Part 87)," Environmental Protection Agency, Federal Register, December, 1982 � � "Designatian of Areas for Air Quality Planning Purposes; Minnesota (40 CFR Part 81)," Environmental Protection Agency, Federal Register, September, 1993 I "National Air Quality and Emissions Trends Report,1992," Off ce of Air Quality �Planning and Standards, U.S. Environmental Protecrion Agency, Research Triangle Pari, North Cazolina, October,1993 14 �� CITY OF MENDOTA BFsIGHTS � i:� • October 6, 199 TO: Airport Relations Commission Members FRObi: Tom Lawell, City Administr�� e�� SIIBJECT: Update on Expansion of Part 150 Sound Insulatiqn Program.

This.information is provided to keep you up to date on the progress of the Part 150 Program within Mendota Heights. � CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS �� • September 30, TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Tom Lawell, City Administrato SIIBJECT: Part 150 Aircraft Noise Sound Insulation DISCIISSION 94 As Council is aware, the City has for the past two years participated in the Part 150 Aircraft Noise Sound Insulation Program as sponsored by the Metropolitan Airport Commission (MAC) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). As part of this ., program, homes located in the Furlong Addition adjacent to Highway 55 are eligible,to participate in the program and a total of 36 properties have either received, or are in the process of receiving, the offered sound insulation treatment. � The Furlong area homes were chosen by the City Council to be eligible for the program based on their close proximity to the airport and their inclusion within the FAA's 1 2 Ldn 65 noise contour map. Since the Part 150 program startecl the FAA has adopted a new 1996 Ldn 65 noise contour map which includes a greater number of homes within Mendota Heights (see attached). As dictated by the FAA, only those properties which fall within the Ldn 65 contour are eligible for participation in tlie Part 150 sound insulation program. The MAC has asked the City to formally authorize the extension of the sound insulation program into these areas of the City which are newly eligible. I Attached please find a listing of all Mendota Heights residential properties which are located within the 1996 Ldn 65 noise contour. Under the mechanics of the program as established by the FAA and the MAC, individual properties within tYie contour will be prioritized based on their relative exposure to air noise as measured by the MAC's ANOMS system. Property owners will be offered an opportunity to participate in the voluntary�program based on their measured Ldn exposure (Ldn 75 through Ldn 65). ACTION REQIIIRED Council should consider a motion authorizing the participation of those Mendota Heights residential properties included within the FAA's 1996 Ldn 65 noise contour in�the Part 150 aircraft noise sound insulation program. Staff should also be directed to work with the MAC to notify property owriers of the �- program and their eligibility to voluntarily participate. � � � : .. .. .

Fleet In making the principal decisions concerning its fleet, the Company has been able to better match the requirements of its route structure and reduce its overall capital outlays. Since December 1992, the Company has cancelled firm orders for $4.0 billion of new aircraft—two Boeing 747-400, 50 Airbus A320 and 24 Airbus A340 aircraft. During the same period the Company also deferred deliveries for an average of 3.5 years on $3.8 billion of new aircraft—four Boeing 747-400, 40 Boeing 757-200 and 16 Airbus A330 aircraft. The Company also cancelled options for an additiona130 Airbus A321, six Airbus A340, six Boeing 747-400 and 40 Bceing 757-200 aircraft. These actions followed the Company's investment in over $4.1 billion in new aircraft since 1989, adding 83 aircraft. The Company has the largest new technology Airbus A320 fleet in the world, with 50 of such aircraft delivered over the last five years. The Company believes that its fleet of 139 DC-9 aircraft is well-suited for a significant portion of the Company's domestic route network. Management considers these aircraft to be highly durable, and their dispatch reliability is superior to any other type of aircraFt in the Company's fleet. Accordingly, the Company is considering a program to refurbish the interiors of the majority of its DC-9 aircraft. The Company estimates that the cost of this refurbishment will be approximately $150 million. If the Company implements this program as an alternative to acquiring new aircraft, the average age of the Company's fleet will be somewhat higher than the industry averages. At December 31, 1992, the average age of the Company's entire fleet was 15.7 years as compared to the industry average of 10.7 years and the average age of the Company's DC-9 fleet was 22.2 years as compared to the industry average of 14.9 years for aircraft in the 75-130 seat category. See "Business—Flight Equipment " However, management believes that through investment in the refurbish- ment and hushkitting of its two-pilot, two-cngine DC-9 aircraft rather than the acquisition of significant quantities of expensive new aircraft, it will be able to reduce its overall capital expenditures without substantial increases in its system operating costs and without suffering a competitive product quality disadvantage. See "Business—Regulation." Labor One of the Company's objectives following the Acquisition has been to improve management's relations with the Company's employees. The Company has also attempted to develop a sense of employee involvement in achieving the Company's goal of improving its operating performance. The NorthBest University training program has been a key component of this effort, as has Northwest Now, an employee cost reduction/revenue generation suggestion system implemented by the Company in 1992. As part of the labor cost savings agreements executed by the Company and all of its domestic unions in 1993, the Company agreed to issue shares of its Series C Preferred Stock to trusts for the benefit of the Company's employees, three seats on the Company's Board of Directors were granted to representatives of the Company's .principal unions and the Company established a Labor Advisory Committee to maintain an ongoing dialogue with its union leadership regarding the operations and financial affairs of the Company. Following some subsequent conversions of the Series C Preferred Stock to be issued to employees, the Company's employees will beneficially own Series C Preferred Stock and Common Stock representing approximately 26.3°l0 of the voting equity of the Company and 27.4°l0 of the total common equity of the Company after giving ef%ct to the Offering.� The Company believes that the status of its employees as substantial stockholders and participants in corporate governance should lead to further improvements in the level of customer service provided by Northwest. 19 �
