SUBJECT: August 26, 2020 Inspection of the Disposal of 1le.(2) Decommissioning Debris from In
Situ Leach Facilities at the White Mesa Uranium Mill. Radioactive Material License No.
UT 1900479.
Authority
Radioactive Materials License #UT1900479 Amendment 9, Condition 10.5: "In accordance with the
Licensee's submittal to the NRC dated May 20, 1993, the Licensee is hereby authorized to dispose of
byproduct material generated at licensed in situ leach (ISL) facilities, subject to the following
conditions:" (Conditions are included below in the Requirements section.)
R313-12-3 (quoting 10 CFR 40.4): "Byproduct Material means the tailings or wastes produced by the
extraction or concentration of uranium or thorium from any ore processed primarily for its source
material content, including discrete surface wastes resulting from uranium solution extraction
processes. 1
10 CFR Part 40 Appendix A, Criterion 2: "To avoid proliferation of small waste disposal sites and
thereby reduce perpetual surveillance obligations, byproduct material from in situ extraction operations,
such as residues from solution evaporation or contaminated control processes, and wastes from small
remote above ground extraction operations must be disposed of at existing large mill tailings disposal
sites; unless, considering the nature of the wastes, such as their volume and specific activity, and the
costs and environmental impacts of transporting the wastes to a large disposal site, such offsite disposal
This definition amends the language given in Section I 1 e.(2) of the Atomic Energy Act as amended in 1954 to include 1SL
facilities on the same footing as conventional uranium mills. This is done by referencing "solution extraction" in the
definition. Text of the Atomic Energy Act as amended in 1954 can be found in NUREG-0980, Volume 1, No. 10.

is demonstrated to be impracticable or the advantages of onsite burial clearly outweigh the benefits of
reducing the perpetual surveillance obligations."
Observations
Heather Mickelson, PE, PG of the Utah Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control
(Division) observed the disposal of three (3) loads of 11 e.(2) byproduct material on August 26, 2020 at
the White Mesa Uranium Mill. The mill is owned and operated by Energy Fuels Resources (Licensee).
Notification of the disposal was received by the Division on August 11, 2020.
Operating Procedures and Records
This inspection was specific to the Licensee's implementation of Standard Operating Procedure SOP
PBL-10, which governs disposal of 1 1 e.(2) byproduct material from ISL facilities. Revision R-3.4,
dated February 1, 2018, is the most recent version.
The Licensee maintains hard copies of the buried 11e.(2) material records onsite. The current year's
disposal records are stored inside the White Mesa Mill's office building and prior years' records are
stored in an onsite storage container within the restricted area. Copies of the data packets for each load
disposed during this inspection are attached to this report.
The Licensee maintains a map of Tailings Cell 3 in the mill office that shows the dedicated disposal
locations for each 11 e.(2) byproduct material generator. The current map is attached to this report.
11 e.(2) Byproduct Material Disposal Activities and Description
Prior to August 26, 2020, the disposal pit location was determined, located by survey, and excavated.
The bottom of the excavation extended into the tailings sand. The 11e.(2) byproduct material was
placed near the burial pits and processed for burial (Photos 1 and 5).
During the August 26, 2020 inspection, the Division observed the final disposal activities. Prior to
placement, the excavation depth was surveyed (Photo 2). Once the 11e.(2) byproduct material was in
the excavation, the top of the material was surveyed (Photos 3 and 7). Clean cover was then placed over
the 11 e.(2) byproduct material and then compacted to further minimize void spaces (Photos 4 and 8).
The vertical extent of the burial was below the top of the tailings and above the bottom liner.
One load of 11 e.(2) byproduct material was from URI Rosita in San Diego, Texas. The material from
this load consisted of pipe and supersacks (Photo 1). Two (2) loads of 11 e.(2) byproduct material was
from URI Kingsville in Kingsville, Texas. The material from these loads consisted of supersacks, filter
and drisco pipes, pumps and trash (Photo 5).
Close Out Meeting
A close out meeting to discuss observations during the inspection included Heather Mickelson, Terry
Slade (Radiation Safety Officer) and Garrin Palmer.
Requirements and Compliance Determination
Radioactive Materials License #UT1900479, Condition 10.5B: "All ISL contaminated equipment shall
be dismantled, crushed or sectioned to minimize void spaces. Barrels containing waste other than soil or
sludges shall be emptied into the disposal area and the barrels crushed. Barrels containing soil or sludges
Third Quarter 2020 ISL Decommissioning Debris Disposal Inspection Report
September 9, 2020
Page 3
shall be verified by the licensee to be full prior to disposal. Barrels not completely full shall be filled
with tailings or soil prior to disposal."
The activities observed and information gathered during this inspection supports a conclusion that the
Licensee is complying with this license condition. Barrels were not present during this disposal
inspection.
Radioactive Materials License #UT1900479, Condition 10.5C: "All ISL waste shall be buried in Cell
No. 3 unless prior written approval is obtained from the Director for alternate burial locations."
The activities observed and information gathered during this inspection supports a conclusion that the
Licensee is complying with this license condition. All 1 1 e.(2) byproduct material was buried in Tailings
Cell No. 3.
Radioactive Materials License #UT1900479, Condition 10.5D: "All disposal activities shall be
documented and records thereof maintained on-site. The documentation shall include descriptions of the
ISL waste and the disposal locations, as well as all actions required by this license condition."
The activities observed and information gathered during this inspection supports a conclusion that the
Licensee is complying with this license condition. The Licensee maintains records of the 1 1 e.(2)
byproduct material disposed of onsite. These records document the nature of each load of material
received, where it is buried, and how it was handled, including all measures taken to comply with all of
License Condition 10.5.
Radioactive Materials License #UT1900479, Condition 10.5E: "ISL Disposal Requirements. The
licensee shall perform ISL disposal activities in accordance with the currently Director approved
Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for ISL disposal. Said plan includes the following minimum
provisions:
(1) The material disposal area must be located on a tailings beach area of the disposal cell or on
an area of the cell that is underlain by tailings sands;
(2) The elevation of the material disposal area shall not exceed the plane or grade of the
elevations of the uppermost flexible membrane liner of the tailings cell;
(3) Such ISL byproduct material shall be segregated from any mill material and equipment
disposed of in the cells pursuant to License Condition 10.4, and the ISL byproduct material from
each in-situ leach source shall be segregated from the byproduct material from all other in-situ
leach sources;
(4) Absence of void space inside barrels disposed, including physical verification before
disposal; and
(5) Detailed engineering drawings which demonstrate:
a. There are at least four feet of tailings sands under the bottom of each disposal area; and
b. The bottom of each disposal area is located at least 12 feet from the sides or dikes of
the tailings cell."
The activities observed and information gathered during this inspection supports the conclusion that the
Licensee is complying with this license condition. The Licensee met the requirement to submit the
procedure with the initial version of SOP PBL-10, and now uses Revision R-3.4, dated February 1,
2018. Revision R-3.4 addresses all of the items specified in License Condition 10.5. The original
Third Quarter 2020 ISL Decommissioning Debris Disposal Inspection Report
September 9, 2020
Page 4
version and every subsequent revision of this procedure were submitted to the Division for review and
approval prior to implementation.
Further, the Licensee is complying with the SOP, such as segregating generator 11 e.(2) byproduct
material streams, minimizing void space, and placing the waste in the tailing sands with at least four feet
of sands below it and at least 12 feet from the side or dike of the cell.
Radioactive Materials License #UT1900479, Condition 10.5F: "The licensee shall notify the Director
in writing at least seven calendar days prior to the proposed scheduled date for disposal of any
byproduct material generated at ISL facilities in the tailings cells.
An annual summary of the amounts of waste disposed of from off-site ISL generators shall be sent to the
Director on or before November 1 of each calendar year."
The activities observed and information gathered during this inspection supports the conclusion that the
Licensee is complying with this license condition. The Division received notice of the disposal on
August 11, 2020, which is greater than 7 days in advance of burial that occurred on August 26, 2020.
The annual summary submittal will be evaluated by DWMRC separately from this inspection.
Conclusions and Recommendations
The Licensee appears fully compliant with applicable laws, standards, requirements and License
Conditions with respect to disposal of 11 e.(2) byproduct material generated as decommissioning debris
from ISL uranium recovery facilities.
