RE: GroundwaterMonitoringResults
Connor and Fork Springs
Dear Mr. Holmgren:
On Jnne 25,2013 representatives of tbe Divjsion ofsolid and Hazardou Waste and ATK
Launch Systems collected water samples from the Connor and Fork Springs. These
springs bave been periodically sampled as part of ATK's groundwater monitoring
Fogram. ATK is required to monitor groundwater due to contamfumnts that were
released to the environment at the facility from past waste management practices.
The two primary contaminants that have been observed at the ATK facility are
trichloroethylene and perchlorate. The samples that were collected were analyzed for
these compounds and molybdenum. The samples were analyzed for molybdenum due to
the release of the metal at the ATK burn grounds which are located approximately one
and tlreequarters miles northwest of Connor Spring.
Trichloroethylene and perchlorate were not detected in either of the spring samples.
Molybdenum, a naturally occurring metd in groundwater, was detected in the Connor
Spring sample at2.6 ug/L (parts per billion). Based on USGS data for concentations of
metals that occur naturally in groundwater, this concentation of molybdenum is within
the range that can be expected for background. MolyMenum was not detected in the
Fork Spring sample.
These two springs were also sampled in the years 2001, 2002,2006 and 2010.
Trichloroethylene and perchlorate have not been detected in any of the samples that have
been collected.

In summary, it appears that Connor and Fork Springs have not been impacted by
contarninated groundwater. ATK monitors other springs, located along Highway 83
(e.g. Prpe and Shotgun Spring). Perchlorate and low levels of tricNoroethylene have
been consistently detected in these springs.
Copies of the analytical results of the samples collected in June 2013 arc enclosed with
this letter.
If you have any questions, please call JeffVandel at (801) 53G0257.

Analysis Date: 07, 09' 2013
Sample prepared by: Dave S.
Sample analyzed by: Gabriela R
AnFlvsis/Method: EPA method 200.8 was used for the analysis of these water samples for total
metals Analysis using Inductive Coupling Plasma Mass Spectrometry GCP-MS).
General Set Informatisn: Utair Public Health Laboratory received these samples for total metals
analysis. The samples were analyzed within holding times. The results for the water samples were
reported in ppb (micrograms per liter), except for Ba ppm (milligrams per liter).
Samnle Prenaration: 50ml water sample was digested with nituic and hydrochloric acid following
SOP. Method 200.8.
Insirument Calibration: The ICPMS was calibrated as described in the SOP.
Initial Calibmtiou aud Cdibration Verifieatisn: Th€ ICPMS was calibrated using a three points
calibration cune and blank. The calibration curve was verified using a second source reference
mateiial (SRM). The SRM result was within +l- l}Yoof the SRM target value. The calibration
conelation coefficient was >0.995.The Method reporting level was verified by analyzing a check
standard at or below the MRL concenhation for respective metals.
Method Blank Analysis: An instnrment blank sample was prepared by using DI water and niftic
acld. Th" blank r"sult was below the method-reporting limit (MRL). A Reagent blank @BLK) was
prepared with DI water, nitric and hydrochloric acids and digested with sarnples. DBLK result was
below MRL for all metals tested.
LSM Analvsis: Matrix spike samples w{rs performed on different sample.
Laboratorv X'ortified Blank Analysis: A Laboratory Fortified Blank and duplicate (LSB/LSBD)
samples were analyzed with these samples.
