What We Can Do

We can show up, speak out, and write to all our Thurston County elected officials.  The city, county, and the Port.  Write letters to the editor, post on Facebook and NextDoor.  Get the word out to friends and neighbors. Tell them we want the Port of Olympia to:

• Stop plans that allow or encourage increased operations at the Olympia Airport.

• Control the hours of operation and concentration of impacts over neighborhoods and Parks.

• Return to local control over the airport.

• Make neighborhoods impacted by the airport equal stakeholders with the aviation interests.

• Seek alternatives for more sustainable transportation, such as rail.

• Quit using our tax dollars to subsidize aviation interests.

• Care about future generations.

Many at the Port claim that they have no say over the Olympia airport because the FAA preempts them.  

Is that true?  Read this story:  

"U.S. District Court Judge Jamal White denied motions by the defendants seeking to dismiss the case, rejecting arguments that the claims are preempted by federal law and lack jurisdiction. The court’s Nov. 25 decision marks a significant step forward for plaintiffs seeking accountability for what they describe as a “Contamination Zone” caused by aircraft pollution."

The draft Master Plan Update (MPU) is very lengthy and unavailable as a single document that would allow searching for a term or word or name. Instead, you have to click on each individual chapter one at a time and search each one. And there is no table of contents anywhere, thus making it much harder to scrutinize, compare different sections, and so on. This is not a public-friendly document.
