Dear Mr, Bird:
Re: White Mesa Urcnium Mill-National Emission Standards for Radon Emissions
From Operating Uraniurn Mill Tailings, 40 Cþ-R Part 61, Subpart rff-Annual Report
Please find enclosed the annual repoft pertaining to tadon emissions fi'orn the tailings impoundment at
the White Mesa Mill. The results of the 2008 testing indicate that the facility was in compliance with
the2}pCi/m2-sec radon emanation standard at3,9 and 3.1 pCi/m2-sec for Cells 2 and3, respectively.
In accordance with the requirement of the NESHAP standard my signature below affirms the
fu llowing certification :
"I cettify under penalty of law that I have personally examined and am familiar with the
inforrnation subrnitted herein and based on my inquiry of those inclivicluals immediately
responsible for obtaining the information, I believe that the submitted information is
h'ue, accurate and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for
submitting false infonnation including the possibility of fine and irnprisonmentl'
If you should have any questions regarding this report please contact Mt. Steven Landau, Denison's
Manager of Environmental Affairs.
Yours very huly,

Standard, (a) radon-222 emissions to ambient air from an existing uranium mill tailings pile shall not
exceed an average of 20 picoCuries per square meter per second þCi/m2-s) for each pile or region'
Subsection 6l.2i3,Determining Compliance, states that: "Compliance with the emission standard in
this subpart shall be determined annually through the use of Method 1 l5 of Appendix B-"
4. SAMPLING METHODOLOGY
Radon emissions were measured using Large Area Activated Charcoal Canisters (canisters) in
conformance with 40 CFR, Part 61, Appendix B, Method 115, Restrictions to Radon Flux
Measurements, (EPA, 2008). These are passive gas adsorption sampling devices used to determine
the flux rate of radon222 gas from a surface. The canisters were constructed using a l0-inch
diameter PVC end cap containing a bed of 180 grams of activated, granular charcoal. The prepared
charcoal was placed in the canisters on a support gld on top of a Y, inch thick layer of foam and
secured with a retaining ring under 1% inches of foam (see Figure 1, page 10)'
One hundred canisters were placed in each region. Due to worker health and safety concerns,
measurement of the wet beach areas was limited to areas readily accessible by foot. Each charged
canister was placed directly onto the surface (open face down) and exposed to the surface for 24
hours. Radon gas adsorbeã onto the charcoal and the subsequent radioactive decay of the entrained
radon resulted in radioactive lead-214 and bismuth-2l4. These radon progeny isotopes emit
characteristic gamma photons that canbe detected through gamma spectroscopy. The original total
activity of the;dsorbed radon was calculated from these gamma ray measurements using calibration
factors derived from cross-calibration of standard sources containing known total activities of
radium-226 with geometry identical to the counted samples and from the principles of radioactive
decay.
After 24 hours, the exposed charcoal was transfened to a sealed plastic sample container (to prevent
radon loss and fuither exposure during transport), identified and labeled, and transported to the Tellco
laboratory in Grand Junótion, Colorado for analysis. Upon completion of on-site .activities, the field
equipment was alpha- and beta-gamma scanned for possible contamination resulting from fieldwork
activities. All field equipment was surveyed by Denison Mines Radiation Safety personnel and
released for unrestricteà ùse. Tellco personnel maintained custody of the samples from collection
through analysis.
5. FIELD OPERATIONS
5.1 Equipment PreParation
All charcoal was dried at 1 10oC before use in the field. Unused charcoal and recycled charcoal were
treated the same. 18g-gram alíquots of dried charcoal were weighed and placed in sample containers.
proper balance operation was verified daily by checking a standard weight. The balance readout
agrãed with the known standard weight to within t 0.1 percent. (Appendix A).
2
In accordance with 40 CFR, Part 61, Appendix B, Method 115:
. Measurements were not initiated within 24 hours of rainfall.
. No rainfall occurred during any of the sampling periods.
. None of the radon measurements presented in this report were perfolned durÌng
temperatures below 35"F or on frozen ground (the minimum air temperature recorded at
the site during the collection periods was 39oF).
6. SAMPLE ANALYSIS
6.1 Apparatus
Apparatus used for the analysis
. Single- or multi-channel pulse height analysis system, Ludlum Model 2200 with a
Teledyne 3" x 3" sodium iodide, thallium-activated (NaI(Tl)) detector'
. Lead shielded counting well approximately 40 cm deep with 5-cm thick lead walls and a7-
cm thick base and 5 cm thick top.
. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) traceable aqueous solution radium-
226 absorbed onto 180 grams of activated charcoal'
. Ohaus Model C501 balance with O.l-gram sensitivity.
6.2 Sample Inspection and Documentation
Once in the laboratory, the integrity of each charcoal container was verified by visual inspection of the
plastic container. Laboratory staff documented damaged or unsealed containers and verified that the
data sheet was complete.
One sample (C39) was lost in the field due to charcoal spillage. All of the remaining 399 sample
containers received and inspected at the Tellco analytical laboratory were verified as valid.
6.3 Background and Sample Counting
The gamma ray counting system was checked daily, including background and radium-226 source
measurements prior to and after each counting session. Based on calibration statistics, using two
sources with known radium-226 content, background and source control limits were established for
each Ludlum/Teledyne counting system with shielded well (see Appendix A).
Gamma ray counting of exposed charcoal samples included the following steps:
o The length of count time was determined by the activity of the sample being analyzed,
according to a data quality objective of a minimum of 1,000 accrued counts for any given
sample.

7.4 Completeness
All 100 samples from the Cell2 Region were verified, representing 100 percent completertess for that
regron.
All 100 the samples from the Cell 3 Beaches region were verified, representing 100 percent
completeness for ìhat region. Ninety-nine of the samples from the Cell 3 Covered Region were
veriñed, representing 99 percent completeness for that region'
Altogether, 399 samples from the total 400 sample locations were verified during this sampling
program, representing 99. 8 percent completeness overall'
8. CALCULATIONS
Radon flux rates were calculated for charcoal collection samples using calibration factors derived
from cross-calibration to sources with known total activity with identical geometry as the charcoal
containers. A yield efhciency factor was used to calculate the total activity of the sample charcoal
containers. lndividual field sample result values presented were not reduced by the results of the freld
blank analyses.
ln practice, radon flux rates were calculated by a database computer program. The algorithms utilized
by the data base program \ryere as follows:
