RevieW of the 2011 Annual Seep and Spnngs Sampling Report
for the Denison Mines (USA) Corp
White Mesa Uranium Mill near Blandmg Utah
On November 23 2011 the Division of Radiation Control (hereafter DRC ) received 2011 Annual Seep
and Spnngs Sampling Report (hereafter Report ) for the Denison Mines (USA) Corp (hereafter
DUSA ) White Mesa Uranium Mill (hereafter Mill ) near Blanding Utah For the review of this Report
the following regulatory enforcement documents will be used
• White Mesa Uranium Mill Ground Water Quality Assurance Plan (hereafter QAP )
Revision 6 0 dated Apnl 20 2010 v
• Groundwater Discharge Permit No UGW370004 (hereafter Perrmt ) Permit version that was
signed by on February 15 2001
• Sampling Plan for Seeps and Spnngs In the Vicinity of the White Mesa Uranium Mill Revision 0
(hereafter Plan )
Summary of Compliance
On May 31 2011 DUSA collected seeps and spnngs samples and failed to notify DRC m advance of this
sampling event therefore DRC staff was not present to collect split samples This is m violation of
Section 3 0 of the Plan which states
DUSA will provide at least 15 days notice of site visits for sampling purposes during
periods of time when actively flowing locations are likely in order to allow the Executive
Secretary to collect split water quality samples of the seeps and springs
DUSA notified DRC of the inadvertent omission of the notification and DRC requested that DUSA
resample the seeps and spnngs locations to allow DRC to observe and collect a split sample On June 28
2011 DUSA responded with a notification to DRC that they would resample the seeps and springs on July
13 2011 On July 13 2011 DUSA did resample and DRC was there and collected a split sample at
Entrance Spnng

Even though DUSA failed to give DRC a 15 day advanced notice prior to the annual seeps and spnngs
sampling event as required in Section 3 0 of the Plan they did resample as requested by DRC Therefore
DRC staff believes that enforcement discretion is appropnate in this matter and no enforcement action is
recommended It appears that in the remainder of the Report DUSA was m compliance with the QAP
Permit and Plan which included sampling locations sample collection methodology analysis of required
parameters QA/QC and reporting
Split Samphng of Entrance Spring
As stated above on July 13 2011 the DRC collected a split sample of Entrance Spring with DUSA DRC
also collected a duplicate sample of Entrance Spnng which is identified as Spnng 1 On July 14 2011 both
samples were shipped to LionviUe Laboratory by UPS m two coolers One cooler was shipped next day air
that earned portions of the samples in containers packed m ice to be analyzed for the non radiologics listed
m Table 1 of Section 8 2 of the QAP The other cooler was shipped by ground that had portions of the
samples in containers to be analyzed for gross alpha The cooler shipped by air apparently had a hazardous
waste label from a previous shipment and UPS staff opened the cooler to check its contents The cooler
was shipped back to DRC with the ice completely melted and samples had exceeded their holding times
and therefore they were not resent for analysis The cooler with the samples to be analyzed for gross alpha
did nch Lionville Laboratory and the results can be seen on Table 6 below In the future to help prevent
shippers from opening coolers all unnecessary labeling will be removed from coolers prior to shipping
Mill Operations Impact on the Seeps and Springs
The analytical results for the 2011 Seeps and Spnngs Monitonng Event are summanzed m tables 1 through
6 in Attachment 1 below
Westwater Spnng had concentrations of arsenic beryllium cadmium copper lead nickel vanadium and
zinc which have not been reported in 2009 or 2010 In addition lead had a concentration of 41 3jLig/l that
exceeded its Utah Ground Water Quality Standard (GWQS) [15^g/l] DUSA explained in the Report
These detections are also most likely present due to leaching from the surrounding soils and the soils the
water contacted during the sampling while waiting for the excavation to fill DRC feels that this
response is reasonable Typically this spnng is sampled from a small excavated hole and at this time it is
reasonable to consider that the local soils could affect the water chemistry A previous example may be
seen from histonc uranium concentrations from this spring As seen m the histonc Westwater Spnng
concentration in Table 5 below the uranium concentration m 2010 (46 6 /ig/1) exceeded its GWQS (30
/ig/1) yet uranium concentrations in 2009 (15 1 /xg/l) and 2011(6 64 jLig/1) were below its GWQS DRC
staff IS confortable in waiting for the 2012 Westwater Spnng sample results before determining if the metal
concentrations are being impacted by the Mill operations
Currently based on the analytical results for the 2011 and all other previous seeps and spnngs sampling
events it appears that the Mill at this time has not adversely impacted Entrance Spring Cottonwood
