Notes:
Mark Harrison photos for the Seattle Times. Port of Seattle CEO Mic Dinsmore was accused of fixing a contract with contractor, Gary Merlino, who, if he agreed to cut his price $9.4 to build a third runway at the Port's Sea-Tac Airport, would get the job without competition. This would have stopped a public bidding effort for the roughly $92 million project.
