1. INTRODUCTION
lEnergy Fuels Resources (USA) Inc. ("EFRI") operates the White Mesa Uranium Mill (the
"Mill"), located near Blanding Utah. EFRI performed first quarter 2021 chloroform monitoring
during the period from January 1, to March 31, 2021 under the September 14, 2015 Groundwater
Corrective Action Plan ("GCAP"), included as Attachment 1 to the executed Stipulation and
Consent Order ("SCO").
Part II.H.1) of the GCAP states that "At any time EFR[I] submits a quarterly report that
demonstrates an exceedance (second quarter of chloroform exceedance), EFR[I] will provide a
written exceedance notice to the Director ("Exceedance Notice") for all wells that have
demonstrated such an exceedance." EFRI provided notice to the Director that the concentrations
of chloroform in TW4-30 exceeded the respective GCAL of 70 ug/L for two or more consecutive
quarters by letter dated May10, 2021.
Part II.H.2) of the GCAP requires that "Within 60 days after the time of submittal of a quarterly
report that demonstrates an exceedance as defined in Part II.G, EFR[T] will provide a plan and
schedule for remedial actions to address and resolve the excursion, for Director approval."
1This is the plan and schedule required under Part II.H.2) of the GCAP for TW4-30 for the first
lquarter of 2021.
2. WELLS SUBJECT TO THIS PLAN
TW4-30 is covered by this Plan.
1 3. BACKGROUND
'Figure 1 is a site map showing the locations of perched groundwater wells and other site
features; Figure 2 is a map showing first quarter, 2021 perched groundwater levels and the
I boundaries of the chloroform and nitrate plumes; and Figure 3 is a detail map showing first
quarter, 2021 chloroform concentrations.
lAs shown in Figure 2, perched groundwater flow ranges from generally southwesterly beneath
the Mill site and tailings management system (cells 1 though 4B) to generally southerly along the
eastern and western margins of White Mesa south of the cells. Perched groundwater flow has
been impacted by past (pre-2012) water delivery to the unlined wildlife ponds (Figure 1) which
resulted in groundwater mounds that locally changed groundwater flow directions. Since
delivery of water to these ponds ceased in the first quarter of 2012, the perched groundwater
mounds associated with these ponds have diminished; however the impact of past seepage from
1 the wildlife ponds is still evident in Figure 2. As the groundwater mounds have diminished,
hydraulic gradients have also diminished. In addition to changes related to past delivery of water
to wildlife ponds and the cessation of water delivery to the ponds in 2012, pumping to remediate
both chloroform and nitrate plumes has impacted water levels as cones of depression have
developed.
1
As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the chloroform plume is entirely within the Mill property boundary
and is bounded on all sides by wells having chloroform concentrations that are either non-detect
or less than 70 Ilg/L except at the location of TW4-30. Until the fourth quarter of 2020, TW4-30
' also bounded the plume. Currently, the plume is bounded to the north by TW4-25 (non-detect);
to the west and southwest by MW-28 (non-detect), MW-31 (non-detect), MW-32 (non-detect),
TW4-6 (approximately 3.8 Rg/L) and TW4-23 (non-detect); to the east by TW4-3 (non-detect),
TW4-5 (nearly 13 lig/L), TW4-8 (nearly 27 p.g/L), TW4-9 (approximately 39 [A,g/L), TW4-13
(non-detect), TW4-14 (approximately 1.8 11 g/L), TW4-18 (approximately 52 ttg/L), TW4-27
(nearly 4.7 Rg/L), TW4-36 (non-detect) and TW4-38 (non-detect); to the south by TW4-34 (non-
detect) and TW4-42 (non-detect); and to the southeast by TW4-35 (non-detect).
As discussed above, the chloroform plume is under remediation by pumping. The impacts of
pumping are displayed by the large drawdowns evident in the water level elevation contours
shown in Figure 2. Pumping from wells within and immediately adjacent to the chloroform
plume as of the first quarter of 2021 (5.2 gallons per minute [gpm]) exceeds calculated
'background' flow (HGC, 2020) through the plume (3.4 gpm) and is therefore considered
adequate. In addition, because of continued reductions in saturated thicknesses and hydraulic
gradients resulting from reduced wildlife pond recharge, 'background' flow through the plume is
expected to continue to diminish, thereby reducing the pumping needed to control the plume.
The southernmost portion of the chloroform plume is affected by multiple influences that include
pumping and reduced wildlife pond recharge, in particular, reduced recharge from the southern
wildlife pond. Water levels at most wells within and at the margins of the chloroform plume are
decreasing; however, water levels at wells such as TW4-14, TW4-27 and TW4-30, which are
either located in relatively low permeability materials (TW4-14 and TW4-27), or are relatively
hydraulically isolated (TW4-30), are increasing to stable. Generally decreasing water levels
(since about the fourth quarter of 2013), and generally increasing chloroform concentrations at
TW4-26 and TW4-29 are consistent with reduced wildlife pond seepage, in particular, reduced
seepage from the southern wildlife pond. Plots of water levels and chloroform concentrations at
these wells over time are provided in EFRI (2021).
The groundwater mound associated with the southern wildlife pond created a generally
southeasterly hydraulic gradient within the southern extremity of the chloroform plume that
caused plume migration to the southeast (and toward TW4-30). As the groundwater mound
associated with the southern pond decays, groundwater flow directions in the southern extremity
of the plume are becoming more southerly, and plume migration is turning more to the south. An
increasingly southerly direction of plume migration is consistent with generally increasing
concentrations at TW4-26 since the third quarter of 2016.
A large hydraulic gradient directed from TW4-29 towards TW4-30 existed at the time of
installation of TW4-30 (first quarter of 2013) as shown in Figure 4. At that time TW4-30 was
almost directly downgradient of TW4-29. However, due to decreasing water levels at TW4-29,
and increasing water levels at TW4-30 (Figure 5), the hydraulic gradient from TW4-29 to TW4-
30 has nearly disappeared, as shown in Figure 6. This change in hydraulic gradient removes the
primary driving force for chloroform migration from TW4-29 towards TW4-30, which is now
' cross-gradient of TW4-29.
2
i 4. PLAN AND TIME SCHEDULE
This is a plan and schedule for actions to address and resolve the excursion noted in Table 1
above as required by the GCAP.
1Part II.H.2).i) of the GCAP states that the plan and schedule may include, but is not limited to the
installation of one or more pumping wells in the vicinity of the well found in exceedance and
installation of one or more replacement wells for the compliance well in exceedance. EFRI plans
to address the exceedance through the installation of one additional compliance well (TW4-43).
'Figure 7 shows the location of the proposed new chloroform compliance well TW4-43.
The proposed location of this well is considered appropriate because, as shown in Figure 6, due
to changes in flow directions in the southern extremity of the plume, TW4-30 is now cross-
gradient of TW4-29; and TW4-35, currently non-detect for chloroform, is downgradient of TW4-
30. Therefore, as a downgradient well is already present, only one new cross-gradient bounding
I well to the southeast of TW4-30 is needed.
The GCAP Part II.H.2).i) states that the plan and schedule may include, but is not limited to the
1 installation of one or more pumping wells in the vicinity of the well found in exceedance.
Pursuant to the requirements of the GCAP, EFRI reviewed the existing water level, hydraulic
conductivity and perched groundwater data in the area in and around TW4-30 for the placement
of a new pumping well; or the conversion of an existing well. Based on the results of the
reviews of data for the existing wells, EFRI has determined that an additional pumping well in
the southeast area near TW4-30 is not feasible due to the low permeabilities and small saturated
Ithicknesses in the vicinity of TW4-30.
Table 2 shows the results of hydraulic conductivity measurements, first quarter, 2021 saturated
thicknesses, and calculated transmissivities of wells in the vicinity of TW4-30. Hydraulic
i conductivity data are from HGC (2018) and HGC (2019). Transmissivities of pumping wells
TW4-4, TW4-40 and TW4-41are underestimated due to the small saturated thicknesses resulting
from pumping, However, even with the underestimation of pumping well transmissivities,
calculated transmissivities of pumping wells TW4-4, TW4-40 and TW4-41 are one to three
lorders of magnitude larger than the transmissivities of non-pumping wells. In addition, the
transmissivity at TW4-30 is one to two orders of magnitude smaller than existing pumping wells
TW4-4, TW4-40 and TW4-41.
TW4-40 has the highest calculated transmissivity (399 ft2/day), which is approximately 69 times
larger than the calculated transmissivity of TW4-30 (5.9 ft2/day). Based on reported quarterly
pumping volumes for TW4-40, which sum to approximately 745,580 gallons over the eight
quarters from the second quarter of 2019 through the first quarter of 2021, the average
sustainable pumping rate for TW4-40 is approximately 0.71 gpm. Therefore, because the
transmissivity of TW4-30 is less than 1.5% of the transmissivity of TW4-40, the expected
average sustainable pumping rate for TW4-30 would be less than 0.011 gpm, or about one one-
hundredth of a gallon per minute.
3
Based on this analysis TW4-30, and other nearby non-pumping wells, are not suitable for
pumping, as their productivities would be so low as to make pumping impractical. Furthermore,
there appear to be no nearby productive areas within which a new pumping well could be
installed without interfering with an existing pumping well.
14.1. Experts Reports to be Prepared
lAs required by Part II.H.4, EFRI will submit an as-built report within 60 days of well installation
'for the newly installed well proposed in this plan and time schedule. Boring logs for the well
and test borings will be included in the as-built report.
Assessment of the plume, hydraulic capture and effectiveness of the remediation strategy will be
discussed in the quarterly chloroform reports submitted as required by the GCAP.
4.2. Time Schedule
The installation of the proposed well and the completion of the as-built report will be completed
lin accordance with the required timeframes specified in the approved and executed GCAP. The
proposed wells will be installed and operational within 90 days of director approval of this plan
and time schedule and the as-built report will be completed within 60 days of well completion.
5. CONCLUSION
1 The chloroform plume is currently entirely within the Mill property boundary and (except at
TW4-30) is bounded on all sides by wells having chloroform concentrations that are either non-
detect or less than 70 IA g/L. Data collected to date indicate that, except for the lack of a well
bounding the plume at TW4-30, there are sufficient chloroform monitoring and pumping wells to
effectively define, control, and monitor the plume. Chloroform pumping as of the first quarter of
2021 (5.2 gpm) exceeds calculated 'background' flow through the plume (3.4 gpm) and is
therefore considered adequate. In addition, because of continued reductions in saturated
thicknesses and hydraulic gradients resulting from reduced wildlife pond recharge, 'background'
flow through the plume is expected to continue to diminish, thereby reducing the pumping
needed to control the plume.
As previously stated, within the southernmost portion of the plume, generally decreasing water
levels (since about the fourth quarter of 2013), and generally increasing concentrations at TW4-
26 and TW4-29 are consistent with reduced wildlife pond seepage, in particular, reduced seepage
from the southern wildlife pond. As the groundwater mound associated with the southern pond
decays, groundwater flow directions in the southern extremity of the plume are becoming more
southerly, and plume migration is turning from southeastward to southerly. Proposed new
compliance monitoring well TW4-43 will be located southeast and generally cross-gradient of
1 TW4-30. Existing well TW4-35 will serve as the well downgradient of TW4-30. An additional
pumping well in the vicinity of TW4-30 is not feasible due to transmissivities that are too low to
make pumping practical.
