The first step would be include "scope" in the DALPA mission statement.
It's not in there right now.

The mission statement sets the priorities for the MEC...
A resolution at the local level is the starting point.

Given the severity of the hole in which we find ourselves, the wording is simply inadequate and inappropriate.

Read section one. SEA and LAX are not considered hubs.
