The DRC can agree to the 45 day extension in order for the groundwater discharge permit application to be comprehensive and complete. Please note, the DRC will not provide any additional time past the July 16, 2012 submission date. Other actions will be taken by the DRC if the submission date is not adhered to. Regards, John Hultquist, Licensing Manager Division of Radiation Control Dept. of Environmental Quality >>> Jo Ann Tischler <jtischler@denisonmines.com> 5/14/2012 3:26 PM >>> John, This email is a follow-up to our phone conversation this morning, Monday, May 14, 2012, regarding submittal of the White Mesa Mill groundwater discharge permit application update (the "application"). Our preparation of the revision is underway. As we discussed, our hydrogeological consultant has prepared an updated analysis of site hydrogeology and groundwater flow rates which will form the basis of the geological and hydraulic description sections of the application, and we have updated the Mill's On-site chemical inventory as requested in your email of March 28, 2012 and as required by Part I.H.I of the Permit. However, during Denison's efforts to date in preparing the application revision, we have determined that a comprehensive and complete application cannot be achieved by the currently agreed-upon submittal date of June 1, 2012. The updates to the application need to address two and a half years of changes to the Mill's tailings system, surface facilities, and groundwater monitoring well network, as well as the addition of hydrogeological and geochemical knowledge resulting from three contamination investigations, two contaminant corrective action programs, a southwest hydrogeological investigation, and a site-wide monitoring well redevelopment program, which were not addressed in the 2009 application. In addition, most figures and all 10 appended or referenced plans need to be replaced by more recently-approved versions which reflect the changes described above. This email is a request for an extension of the submittal date by 45 days, which would require Denison to submit a revised application by close of business Monday July 16, 2012. This extension would allow Denison to provide a comprehensive and complete application document which contains all of the above-identified corrections and updates. https://mail.goc>gle.com/mail/ii/0/?uR^ 1/2 11/24/2014 State of Utah Mail - Re: Groundwater Discharge Permit Application Revision - Request for Extension of Submittal Deadline We appreciate your consideration of this extension request.
