Dear Mr Frydenlund.

2012 DMT Performance Standards Momtonng Report and Cell 4A and Cell 4B Performance
Standards Momtonng Report (dated August 22, 2012) for the EFR White Mesa Mill near
Blandmg, Utah This letter summanzes the outcome of our staff review of the Report The DRC
findings were as follows*
1 On June 2, 2010, routine inspection of the Cell 1 Leak Detection System revealed fluid,
indicative of a leak in the flexible membrane liner (FML) On September 22, 2010, the
DRC granted approval of a repair plan for the FML That plan called for a report of repair
activities and results, as well as a root cause analysis for the FML failure to appear in the
2"'* Quarter 2012 Report EFR has provided the required repair report DRC will comment
on the repair effort under a separate stand-alone project.
2 In all other respects it appears EFR complied with applicable standards as detailed in the
DMT and BAT Plans
Closeout
Inasmuch as no open issues remain, except for the Cell 1 FML repair which will receive
independent attention, DRC considers the review of the 2"^* Quarter, 2012 EFR DMT Performance
