Dear Mr. Finerfrock:
Re: Addendum to Semi-Annual Effluent Monitoring Report July 1, 2009 through
December 31, 2009, DRC Inspection Module EM-01, RML UT1900479
Reference is made to Denison Mines (USA) Corp.'s ("DUSA's") Semi Annual Effluent
Monitoring Report for the period fi-om July 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009 (the "SAER")
and to the letter of April 7, 2010 fi-om the Executive Secretary, Utah Division of Radiation
Control (the "DRC letter"), describing the results of the DRC's inspection of that Report.
The SAER provided the analytical results of stack sampling conducted for the 3rd and 4th
Quarters of 2009, as well as for the 1st and 2nd Quarters of 2009, indicating the concentration in
the stack emissions (in uCi/cc) and the stack's radionuclide release rate (in uCi/sec) for U-Nat,
Th-230, Ra-226 and Pb-210 at each of the stacks sampled. The actual analytical results reported
by the laboratory were provided in Attachment G of the SAER.
As explained in the SAER, due to inadvertence on the part of the Mill's sampling contractor, the
Mill's contract analytical laboratory was not instructed to analyze for Th-230, Ra-226 or Pb-210
for the fourth quarter 2009 sampling event for the yellowcake dryer and the yellowcake
baghouse. However, the laboratory was instructed on February 25, 2010 to analyze for those
constituents from 4th quarter 2009 samples remaining at the laboratory. Although these fourth
quarter results were not included in the SAER, they were subsequently analyzed from samples
collected during the required monitoring period.
The DRC letter requests that Denison submit an addendum to the SAER, including the results of
the 3'^'' quarter samples, by April 30, 2010. This letter transmits the Addendum requested in the
DRC letter, and additional documentation explaining the required frequency of sampling and
analysis for stack emissions, as described below.
The DRC letter questions why Lead-210, Radium-226 and Thorium-230 were not also sampled
in the third quarter of 2009, and cites Appendix E, Section 1.4, Source Emissions, Sub-section
5.1, Yellow Cake Stacks of the Mill's 1991 License Renewal Application (the "Application"). A
copy of this sub-section has been attached to this transmittal letter. The DRC letter cites only a
portion of the text of that sub-section, as follows:
" ... the Mill failed to meet the requirements of the Mill's 1991 License Renewal
Application, Appendix E, Section 1.4, Source Emissions, Sub-section 5.1, Yellow Cake
Stacks, which states: "The exhaust stack for the drying and packaging equipment
associated with the yellow cake calciner is sampled on a quarterly basis during operation
. . .Samples are analyzed for: Natural Uranium, Lead-210, Radium-226 and Thorium-
230 on a quarterly basis.'"'
The portions of the sub-section omitted fi-om the Division's quotation actually specify the
frequency of the required analysis. The sub-section specifies:
"Samples are analyzed for: natural uranium, Lead-210, Radium-226, and Thorium-230
on a semi-annual basis and for Natural Uranium on 'a quarterly basis." [Emphasis
added].
Section 5.0 of Tab 1.4 of the Mill's Environmental Protection Manual, Revision: DUSA-1, 2/07
(the Environmental Protection manual"), as cited in the SAER and provided as an attachment to
this letter, is consistent with the analytical frequency specified in the 1991 Application.
Specifically, stack sampling in the 3'^'* quarter required analysis for uranium only. The
appropriate uranium analysis data was provided in the SAER submitted on April 1, 2010.

STACK EMISSION MONITORING PROCEDURES
WHITE MESA GAS STACK EMISSIONS
1.0 INTRODUCTION
White Mesa uses scientifically approved reference methods to detennine gas stack
emissions release concentration for radionuclide particulates. These methods
conform to principles that apply to obtaining valid samples of airborne radioactive
materials, using prescribed acceptable methods and materials for gas and
particulate sampling. See American Standard Guide to Sampling Airborne
Radioactive Materials in Nuclear Facilities ANSI N13.1-1969. These sampling
methods are also consistent with guidance contained in the U.S. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission's Regulatory Guide 4.14, "Radiological Effluent and
Environmental Monitoring at Uranium Mills."
2.0 SAMPLING METHODOLOGIES
The sampling methods for airborne radionuclide particulates, from the yellowcake
dryer and other mill effluent control stacks, are identical to methods published in
the EPA's manual. Gas Stream Sampling Reference Methods for New Source
Performance Standards: they are found in the EPA Manual in Appendix No. 5,
"Detennination of Particulate Emissions from Stationary Sources" ("EPA Method
#5") and Appendix No. 17, "Determination of Particulate Emissions from
Stationary Sources (In-Stack Filtration Method)" ("EPA Method #17). Copies of
EPA Method #5 and #17 are attached to this SOP. Sampling is performed as per
the methods, to ensure that the sampling and results are: (1) isokinetic; (2)
representative; and (3) adequate for determination of the release rates and
concentrations of U-Nat, Th-230, Ra-226 and Pb-210.
2.1 Sampling Equipment
Sampling equipment used to collect airborne radionuclide particulates from point
source emission stacks at the Mill consists of equipment manufactured by
Research Appliance Company (RAC), (or other equivalent apparatuses), as
follows:
1. RAC Model 201009 Model 2414 stack sampler.
2. Two each, RAC Model 201044 modular sample cases. One heater box and
one glassware box.
3. One each, RAC Model 201019 umbilical cord.
White Mesa Mill - Standard Operating Procedures Date: 2/07 Revision: DUSA-2
Book #11: Environmental Protection Manual, Section 1.4 Page 2 of 6
4. Three each, RAC Model 201013 - 100mm diameter filter holders.
5. One each, RAC Model 201005 standard pilot tube, three feet length,
stainless steel/S-type probe.
6. Barometer.
7. Psychrometer.
8. Satorius Model 2432 balance or equivalent.
9. Triple beam balance.
Equipment instruction and operating manual(s) provided by the manufacturer(s)
are retained at the Mill and used for specific guidance and reference.
2.2 Sample Collection
Gas stack samples are collected from emission control systems used in Uranium
Recovery Operations at the Mill. These samples are collected from process stacks
when the emission control systems are operating. They are sampled for
radionuclide particulate concentrations at a frequency in accordance with Table 5-
1. Sample collection methods are described in detail in EPA Method #5 and EPA
Method #17, Determination of Particulate Matter Emissions From Stationary
Sources. It is necessary to read and understand all procedures described in the
methods and in the equipment manual. The operation of the equipment requires
"hands-on" instruction from the Radiation Departmental Staff from individuals
who are experienced in using sample collection equipment and applying sample
collection methods. The following steps are described for stack sample
collection.
1. Check equipment listed in Section 2.1 of this SOP. Consult the
manufacturers equipment operations manual for details.
2. Assemble equipment as described in the operations manual for sample
collection EPA Method #17.
3. Follow the calibration procedure listed in fhe manual. If the
calibration measurements are not obtained, consult the trouble
shooting section of the manual for corrective instruction. Once the
collection apparatus is calibrated, proceed to the next step.
4. Weigh a new glass fiber filter, record the weight, and place in the
filter holder assembly.
5. Check the sample collection system for leaks.
6. Cap ends of sample probes to prevent contamination and transport
sample unit to the sample location.
7. Uncap sample end and insert 3/8-diameter sample probe into the stack
in the midsection of the exhaust stream.
8. Tum sample apparatus on and observe unit operation to insure a
sample is being collected and the apparatus is functioning properly.
While Mesa Mill - Standard Operating Procedures Date: 2/07 Revision: DUSA-2
Book #11: Environmental Protection Manual, Section 1.4 Page 3 of 6
9. Collect the stack sample for at least one hour during periods of routine
process operation. Note the collection time.
10. Record the information described in the manufacture's operations
manual. This information is also described in the EPA Methods #5
and #17 for point source particulate emissions.
11. After sample collection is complete, tum off unit. Obtain sample
filter from filter housing and place in a new plastic petri dish. Send to
outside laboratory for radionuclide analysis in accordance with Table
5-1.
2.3 Sample Handling and Shipping
1. During preparation and assembly on the sampling train, keep all
openings where contamination can occur covered until just prior lo
assembly or until sarapling is about to begin.
2. Using a tweezer or clean disposable surgical gloves, place a labeled
(identified) and weighed filter in the filter holder. Be sure that the
filter is properly centered and the gasket properly placed so as to
prevent the sample gas stream from circumventing the filter. Check
the filter for tears after assembly is completed.
3. Before moving the sampling train to the cleanup site, remove the
probe from the sample train, wipe off the silicone grease, and cap the
open outlet of the probe. Be careful not to lose any condensate that
might be present. Wipe off the silicone grease from the filter inlet
where the probe was fastened, and cap it. Remove the umbilical cord
from the last impinger, and cap the impinger. If a flexible line is used
between the first impinger or condenser and the filter holder,
disconnect the line at the filter holder, and let any condensed water or
liquid drain into the impingers or condenser. After wiping off the
silicone grease, cap off the filter holder outlet and impinger inlet.
Either ground-glass stoppers, plastic caps, or semm caps may be used
to close these openings.
4. Transfer the probe and filter-impinger assembly to the cleanup area.
This area should be clean and protected from the wind so that the
chances of contaminating or losing the sample will be minimized.
5. Save a portion of the acetone used for cleanup as a blank. Take 200
ml of this acetone directly from the wash bottle being used, and place
it in a glass sample container labeled "acetone blank."
6. Carefully remove the filter from the filter holder, and place it in its
identified petri dish container. Use a pair of tweezers and/or clean
disposable surgical gloves to handle the filler. If it is necessary lo fold
the filter, do so such that the PM cake is inside the fold. Using a dry
Nylon bristle brush and/or a sharp-edged blade, carefully transfer to
White Mesa Mill - Standard Operating Procedures Date: 2/07 Revision: DUSA-2
Book #11: Environmental Protection Manual, Section 1.4 Page 4 of 6
the petri dish and PM and/or filter fibers that adhere to the filter
holder gasket. Seal the container.
7. Send to the laboratory for radionuclide analysis.
3.0 RECORD KEEPING
Records of gas stack effluent sampling events and results of analysis are retained
at the Mill. The following information is recorded:
1. Stack and Run ID
2. Date and Sampler
3. Sampled Air Volume at standard conditions
4. Sampled Water Volume at standard conditions
5. Moisture Content (volume basis)
6. Stack Gas Molecular Weight (wet basis)
7. Slack Gas Velocity
8. Slack Gas Volumetric Flow Rate (dry basis, at standard conditions)
9. Particulate Concentration
10. Percent Isokinetics
11. Emission Rales for Particulates U-Nat, Th-230, Ra-226, and Pb-210.
The data are used lo calculate emission rales in pounds and pico curies per hour
for radionuclide particulate concentrations.
4.0 MONITORING LOCATION AND FREQUENCY
Slack sampling must be performed during any quarter or semi-annual period that
the stacks operate in accordance with the schedule in Table 5-1. During non-
operational periods, stack sampling is not performed.
4.1 YELLOWCAKE STACKS
The exhaust stack for the drying and packaging equipment associated with the
yellowcake calciner is sampled on a quarterly basis during operations. The
sample ports are locaied on the roof of the main Mill building.
4.2 Feed Stacks
The grizzly feed stack is located on the north end of the grizzly structure. This
slack is accessible from a stack platform and is sampled on a semi-annual basis if
this system is operating.

6.0 QUALITY ASSURANCE METHODOLOGY
6.1 Equipment Operation
Prior to performing an emission poinl sampling mn, the sampling equipment is
subjected to a dry run test lo detennine leakages or equipment malfunction.
Calibration of equipment is checked on a periodic basis. Probe tips are protected
by a protective cap while not in use lo protect accuracy determinations. During
transport of equipment, all openings are sealed to prevent contamination.
Calculations utilized during runs to maintain isokinetic conditions are reviewed
and dry mn tested prior to the aclual run. All containers and probes are washed
prior to each usage.
Malfunction of sampling equipmeni, excessive malfunctions of normal operations
being monitored, or percent isokinetic sampling rates greater than ± 10% error,
indicate mandatory voiding of the run or data involved.
6.2 Operations
If samples are collected from the operation of any unit which appears, in the
judgment of the sampler, lo be functioning in a manner not consistent with normal
operations, then the sample will be voided and the system will be resampled.
6.3 Chemical Sample Control
Analyses on each period's sample shall include blanks for the filters, impinger
solutions, and the rinse solutions. A field logbook shall be maintained listing data

Book #11: Environmental Protection Manual, Section 1.4 Page 6 of 6
generated, determinations of volumes measured, and net gain weights of filters to
provide a back up to summary data records. Filters are transmitted within plastic
enclosed petri dishes. Handling of filters is only done using tweezers.
6.4 Calculations
All calculations will be retained at the Mill in both a hard copy and computer
files.
The gas stack effluent concentrations (C) are calculated as follows:
Lab Result |iCi (A) / Volume Sampled (V) = Effluent ConcenU-ation (C)
where
Volume Sampled (V) = Flow rate (Q) * Time of sample collection in minutes (t)
and
Lab Result \iCi (A) = Radioisotopic activity, in |lCi on air filter

ADDENDUM
WHITE MESA URANIUM MILL
SEMI-ANNUAL EFFLUENT REPORT, JULY THROUGH DECEMBER, 2009
1. INTRODUCTION
The White Mesa Mill (the "Mill") has established monitoring programs to evaluate
compliance with effluent limitations and to assess the potential for release of radioactive
material into the local environment. These monitoring programs were developed and
implemented at the time of Mill construction, operated with appropriate adaptation over
time, and are consistent with the Mill's State of Utah Radioactive Materials License No.
UTI900479 (the "License") and guidelines developed by the United States Nuclear
Regulatory Commission ("NRC") (NRC Regulatory Guide 4.14, Radiological Effluent
and Environmental Monitoring at Uranium Mills-Rev. I, ML003739941), 1980).
The Mill's semi-annual effluent reports provide the results of the specific monitoring and
sampling activities that were undertaken during the subject reporting period.
This document is an addendum to the semi-annual effluent report for the period July
through December, 2009 (the "SAER") which was submitted to Utah Department of
Environmental Quality Division of Radiation Control on February 26, 20 I O.
As explained in the SAER, due to inadvertence on the part of the Mill's sampling
contractor, the Mill's contract analytical laboratory was not instructed to analyze for Th-
230, Ra-226 or Pb-210 for the fourth quarter 2009 sampling event for the yellowcake
dryer and the yellowcake baghouse. However, the laboratory was instructed on February
25, 2010 to analyze for those constituents from 4th quarter 2009 samples remaining at the
laboratory. Although these fourth quarter results were not included in the SAER, they
were subsequently analyzed from samples collected during the required monitoring
period. The purpose of this addendum is to amend the SAER to include the inadvertently
omitted data, and certain explanatory disclosures.
2, DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES AND ADDITIONS
a. The following paragraph should be deemed to be included in Section 5 at the end
of the last full paragraph on Page 8 of the SAER.
"Subsequent to submission of this SAER, remaining samples collected
during the fourth quarter 2009 sampling event for the yellowcake dryer and
the yellowcake baghouse were analyzed for Th-230, Ra-226 and Pb-21 O.
The required fourth quarter Stack Effluent Concentrations and Release Rates
for these three analytes are provided in the updated Table 8, below. As
indicated in Table 7, semi-annual monitoring, which is conducted in the first
and third quarters, requires only analysis and tabulation of these parameters
for uranium. As identified in the updated Table 8, data for these parameters
for Th-230, Ra-226 or Pb-2IO for the third quarter of 2009 is not required
and has not been included in Table 8."
b. Table 8, provided below, should be deemed to replace the version of Table 8 in
the SAER.

INTRODUCTION
Test Purpose
This test project was conducted to determine the total radionuclide emissions from the North
Yellow Cake Scrubber and the Yellow Cake Dryer Baghouse exhausts in terms of Curies per dry
standard cubic foot (Ci/dscf).
The test samples were initially analyzed for only U-Nat but were re-analyzed for Th-230, Ra-
226, and Pb-21 O. The results from both sets of analyzes were combined for the total Cildscf.
Test Location and Type of Process
Denison Mines (USA) Corporation is located about 5 miles south of Blanding, Utah. Uranium
ore is processed into yellow cake, which is shipped to other facilities for additional processing.
There are two yellow cake dryers with individual scrubbers. Both dryer enclosures discharge
into the Dryer Baghouse. The Packaging enclosure also discharges into the Dryer Baghouse.
The North Yellow Cake (NYC) dryer was the only operating dryer at the time ofthe test. The
South Yellow Cake Dryer is currently not operational. The Grizzly Baghouse serves as the main
dust control device for the raw ore unloading and conveying to the processing building but was
not operating during this time period.
Stack schematics are shown as Figures 1 and 2 in Appendix D.
Test Dates
One test run was completed on the NYC Dryer December 15, 2009 and one run on December
16th •
One run was completed on the Dryer Baghouse December 15,2009.
Pollutants Tested and Methods Applied
The tests were a determination of radio nuclide emissions in accordance with EPA Method 5/114.
Test run filters and front wash residues were sent to Test America located in Richland,
Washington for radionuclide analysis.

SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS PROCEDURES
Sampling Port Location
The inside diameter of the North Yellow Cake Scrubber stack is 18.0 inches. The two, four-inch
diameter sample port are located 6.3 diameters (9.5 feet) downstream from the last disturbance
and 6.3 diameters (9.5 feet) upstream fi'om the next disturbance. Figure I in Appendix D is a
schematic of the stack.
The inside diameter of the Yellow Cake Dryer Baghouse stack is 16.0 inches. The two, four-inch
diameter sample ports are located 28.38 diameters (454 inches) downstream fi'om the last
disturbance and 3.56 diameters (57 inches) upstream from the next disturbance. The sample port
locations are depicted in Figure 2 in Appendix D.
Sampling Point Location
Table 1Il shows the distance of each sampling point from the inside wall according to EPA
Method I. Each point is marked and identified with a wrapping of glass tape and numbered.
These points are determined by measuring the distance from the inside wall.

To determine the actual emission rates for this stack, 40 CFR 60, Appendix A, Methods 1-5/114
were followed.
All sampling trains were made of inert materials, (Teflon, stainless steel and glass) to prevent
interference ofthe sampled gas and particulate.
6
The stack analyzers used to conduct Methods 1-5/114 are constructed to meet the specifications
outlined in the CFR. The temperature sensors are K-type thermocouples. Heater, vacuum and
pitot line connections have been designed to be interchangeable with all units used by the tester.
A 316 stainless steel probe liner was used for the tests. Figure 4 in Appendix E is a sketch of the
Methods 5/114 sampling train.
Sample boxes were prepared for testing by following the prescribed procedures outlined in
Methods 5/114.
Sampling aud Analytical Procedures
All sampling and analytical test procedures were as specified in 40 CPR 60, Appendix A,
Methods 5/114.
Quality Assurance
All equipment set-up, sampling procedures, sample recovery and equipment calibrations were
carried out according to the procedures specified in 40 CPR 60 and the Quality Assurance
Handbook/or Air Pollution Measurement Systems.

(LCS), and one reagent blank sample analysis. Any exeeptions have been noted in the "Comments"
section.
V. Comments
Alpha Speeh'oscoPY
Uranium-234. 235, 238
The aehieved reeovery yield of the matrix spike exceeds aceeptanee criteria. The sample aetivity is
greater than five times the expected yield from the matrix spike; therefore the data ean be aecepted. The
achieved MDA of the samples exceeds the detection limit. However, the sample activity execeds the
MDA and detection limit; therefore the data ean be aecepted. Exeept as noted, the LCS, bateh blank,
sample and sample duplieate results are within aeeeptance limits.
I eertify that this Certifieate of Analysis is in complianee with the SOW and/or NELAC, both technically
and for completeness, for other than the conditions detailed above. The Laboratory Manager or a
designee, as verified by the following signature has authorized release oftbe data contained in this hard

Uncertainty Estimation
TestAmerica Richland has adopted the internationally accepted approach to estimating
uncertainties described in "NIST Technical Note 1297, 1994 Edition", The approach, "Law of Propagation
of Errol's", involves the identification of all variables in an analytical method which arc used to derive a
result. These variables arc related to the analytical result (R) by some functional relationship, R:= constants
* f(x,y,z, ... ), The components (x,y,z) arc evaluated to determine their contribution to the overall method
uncertainty. The individual component uncertainties (u)) are then combined using a statistical model that
provides the most probable overall unccrtainty valuc. AI! component uncertainties are categorized as type
A, evaluated by statistical methods, or type 13, evaluated by other means. Uncertainties not included in the
components, such as sample homogeneity, arc combined with the component uncertainty as thc square root
of the sum-of-the-squares of the individual uncertainties. The uncertainty associated with the derived result
is the combined uncertainty (ue) multiplied by the coverage factor (1,2, or 3).
When three or more sample replicates are used to derive the analytical result, the type A
uncertainty is the standard deviation of the mean value (Sf? n), where S is the standard deviation of the
derived results. The type 13 ullcertainties are all other random or non-random eomponcnts that are not
included in the standard deviation.
The derivation of the general IILaw of Propagation of El'rors" equations and specific example are
available on request.

An agreed upon activity level used to trigger some action when the final result is greater than or equal to the Action
Level. Often the Action Level is related to the Decision Limit.
The QC preparation batch number that relates laboratoty samples to QC samples that were prepared and analyzed
together.
Defined by the equation (RcsuIt/Expected)~ I as defined by ANSI N 13.30.
Chain of Custody Number assigned by the Client or TestAmerica.
Poisson counting statistics of the gross sample count and background. Thc uncertainty is absolute and in the same
units as the result. For L.iquid Scintillation Counting (LSC) the batch blank count is the background.
A!l known uncertainties associated with the preparation and analysis of the sample are propagated to give a measure
of the uncertainty associated with the result, Uc the comMned uncertainly. The uncertainty is absolute and in the
same units as thc result.
The coverage factor defines the width of the confidence interval, 1,2 or 3 standard deviations.
Contractual Required Detection Limit as deJ1ned in the Client's Statement Of Work or TestAmeriea "defim!t"
nominal detection limit. Ollen referred to the reporting level (RL)
Decision Level based on instrument background or blank, adjusted by the Efficiency, Chemical Yield, and Volume
associated with the sample. The Type I error probability is approximately 5%. Lc=(1.645 *
Sqrt(2*(BkgmdCnt/BkgmdCntMin)/SCntMin» * (CotlvFctl(EfFYld*Abn*VoJ) * IngrFct). For LSC methods the
batch blank is used as a measure of the background variability. Lc cannot be calculated when the background count
is zero.
Thc number assigned by the LIMS software to track samples received on the same day for a given client. The
sample number is a sequential number assignee! to each sample in the Lot.
Detection Level based on instrument background or blank, adjusted by the Efficiency, Chemical Yield, and Volume
with a Type I and II error probability of approximately 5%. MDC = (4.65 *
Sqrt«BkgmdCntlBkgrndCntMin)/SCntMin) + 2.711SCntMin) *' (ConvFct/(Eff* Yld * Abn * Vol) * IngrFct). For
LSC methods the batch blank is used as a measure of the background variability.
The instrument identifier associated with the analysis of the sample aliquot.
The 0-234 result divided by the U-238 result. The U~234/U-238 ratio for natural uranium in NIST SRM 4321 C is
1.038.
Ratio of the Result to the MDe. A value greater than I may indicate activity above background at a high level of
confidence. Caution should be used when applying this factor and it should be used in concert with the qualifiers
associated with the result.
Ratio of the Result to the Total Uncertainty. If the uncertainty has a coverage factor 01'2 a value greater than I may
indicate activity above background at approximately the 95% level of confidence assuming a two-sided conHdence
intelval. Caution should be uscd when applying this factor and it should be used in concert with the qualifiers
associated with the result.
Samp!e Identifier used by the rep0l1 system. The number is based upon the first five digits of the WOl'k Ordcl'
Number.
The equation Replicate Error Ratio "'" (S~D)/[sqrt(TPUs2+ TPUd2)] as defined by ICPT BOA where S is the original
sample result, 0 is the result ofthe duplicate, TPUs is the total unCct1ainty of the original sample and TPUd is the
total uncertainty ofthe duplicate sample.
Sample Delivery Group Number assigned by the Client or assigned by TestAmcrica upon sample receipt.
The sum of tile reported alpha spec results for tests derived from the same sample excluding duplicate result where
the results are in the same units.
The LIMS software assign test specific identifier.
The recovery of the tracer added to the sample such as Pu-242 used to trace a Pu~239/40 method.

CASE NARRATIVE
On March 1,20 I 0, three stack filter samples were received at TestAmerica's Richland laboratory for
radiochemical analysis. Upon receipt, the samples were assigned the TestAmerica identification numbers
as described on the covel' page of the Analytical Data Package report form. The samples were assigned to
Lot Numbers lOCOI 0474.
II. Sample Receipt
The samples were received in good condition and no anomalies were noted during check-in.
III. Analytical Results/Methodology
The analytical results for this repoli arc presented by laboratory sample !D. Each set of data includes
sample identification information; analytical results and the appropriate associated statistical
uncertainties.
The analysis requested was:

IV. Quality Control
The analytical result for each analysis performed includes a minimum of one laboratory control sample
(LCS), and one reagent blank sample analysis. Any exceptions have been noted in the "Comments"
section.
V. Comments
Alpha Spectl'Oscopy
Thorium-228, 230, 232
Upon initial analysis, the tracer yields of the samples exceed the acceptance limits due to indigenous Th-
234 activity in the samples. The natural Uranium activity and daughter progeny overwhelmed the Th-234
tracer added to the samples. The samples were re-analyzed in batch II 0077135 using a Th-229 tracer.
Upon initial count, sample Baghouse, the blank and the LCS were unable to be calculated due to smeared
spectra. The samples were re-analyzed by stripping the disks, sending them back through the columns and
recounting. The recount is within acceptance limits. The achieved MDA of the samples exceeds the
detection limit. However, the sample activity of the samples, except the blank, exeeeds the MDA and
deteetion limit. The data is reported. Exeept as noted, the LCS, batch blank and sample results are within
acceptance limits.
Gamma Spectroscopy
Pb-210
The achieved MDA of the samples exceeds the detection limit. However, the sample activity of samples
NYC Run I, NYC Run 2 and the LCS exceeds the MDA and detection limit; Samples Baghouse and the
Blank did not. Data will be provided for elient review. Except as noted, the LCS, batch blank, sample
and sample duplicate results are within acceptance limits.
Alpha Scintillation
Radium-226
The achieved MONs exeeed the detection limit; the sample activity exceeds the DL, therefore the data
can be aecepted. The LCS, batch blank, sample and sample duplicate results are within acccptance limits.
I certifY that this Celtificate of Analysis is in compliance with the SOW andlor NELAC, both technically
and for completeness, for other than the conditions detailed above. The Laboratory Manager or a
designee, as verified by the following signature has authorized release of the data contained in this hard
copy data package.

Uncertainty Estimation
TcstAmerica Richland has adopted the internationally accepted approach to estimating
uncertainties described in "NIST Technical Note 1297, 1994 Edition", The approach~ "Law of Propagation
of Errorsll, involves the identification of all variables in an analytical method \vhich are used to derive a
result. These variables arc related to the analytical result (R) by some functional relationship, R = constants
* f(x,y,z, ... ). The components (x,y,z) arc evaluated to determine their contribution to the overall method
uncertainty. The individual component uncertainties (ul) arc then combined using a statistical model that
provides the most probable overall uncertainty value. All component uncertainties are categorized as type
A, evaluated by statistical methods, or type B, evaluated by other means: Uncertainties n01 included in the
components, such as samplc homogeneity, are combined with the component uncertainty as the square root
of the SUI11-o{-the-squares of the individual uncertainties. The uncertainty associated with the derived result
is the combined uncertainty (ue) multiplied by the coverage factor (1), or 3).
When three or more sample replicates arc used to derive the analytical result, the type A
uncertainty is the standard deviation of the mean value (S/?n), where S is the standard deviation of the
derived results. The type 13 uncertainties arc all other random or non-random components that are not
included in the standard deviation.
The derivation orihe genera! IILaw of Propagation of Errors" equations and specific example arc
available on request.

An agreed upon activity level used to triggcr some action whcn the final result is greater tban OJ' equal to tbe Action
Level. Often the Action Level is related to the Decision Limit.
The QC preparation batch number that relates laboratory samples to QC samples tbat were prepared and analyzed
together.
Defined by the equation (ResuIt/Expccted)~ I as defined by ANSI N J 3.30.
Chain of Custody Number assigned by the Client or TcstAmerica.
Poisson counting statistics of the gross sample count and background. The unceltainty is absolute and in the same
units as the result. For Liquid Scintillation Counting (LSC) the batch blank count is the background.
AI! known uncertain tics associated with the preparation and analysis of the sample are propagated to give a measure
of the uncertainty associated with the result, lie the combined uncertainty. The unccrtainty is absolute and in the
same units as the resule
The coverage factor defines the width of the confidence interval, 1,2 or 3 st,mdard deviations.

Decision Level based on instrument background or blank, adjusted by the Efficiency, Chemical Yield, and Volumc
associated with the sample. The Type I error probability is approximately 5%. Lc=( 1.645 *
Sqrt(2*(BkgmdCnI/BkgmdCntMin)/SCntMin)) * (ConvFct/(Ef0'Yld*Abn*Vol) * IngrFct). For LSC methods the
batch blank is used as a measure of the background variability. Lc cannot be calculated when the background count
is zero.
The number assigned by the LlMS software to track samples received on the same day for a given client. The
sample number is a sequential number assigned to each sample in the Lot.
Detection Level bascd 011 instrument background or blank, adjusted by the Efficiency, Chemical Yield, and Volume

LSC methods the batch blank is used as a measure orthe background variability.
The instrument identifier associated with the analysis of tile sample aliquot.
The U~234 result dividcd by the U~238 result. The U~234/tJ~238 ratio for natural uranium in NIST SRM 432lC is
1.038.
Ratio of the Result to the MDC. A value greater than I may indicate activity above background at a high level of
confidence. Caution should be used when applying this HlCtor and it should be used in concert with the qualifiers
associated with the result.
Ratio of the Result to the Total Uncertainty. If the uncertainty has a coverage factor of2 a value greater than I may
indicate activity above background at approximatcly the 95% level of confidence assuming a two~sided confidence
interval. Caution should be used when applying this factor and it should be used in concert with the qualifiers
associated with the result.
Sample Identifier used by the repmt system. The number is based upon the first five digits of the WOdi Ol'dcl'
Number.
The equation Replicate Error Ratio "" (S~D)/fsqlt(TPUs2 + TPUd2)] as defined by ICPT BOA where S is the original
sample result, D is the result of the duplicate, TPUs is the total ullceltainty of tile original sample and TPUd is the
total uncertainty oCthe duplicate sample.
Sample Delivery Group Number assigned by the Client or assigned by TestAmerica upon sample receipt.
The sum of the reported alpha spec results for tests derived from the same sample excluding duplicate result where
the results are in the same units.
The LIMS software assign test specific identifier.
