The Application for Connection forms allow the Port of Seattle to assess the impacts of additional services/loads on airport systems, identify the point of connection, reserve the point of connection for approved service/loads, establish and maintain configuration control of the system, and plan for long-term system development to meet the needs of STIA. An approved application for connection is required before any connection or installation to a utility system is made.
