摘要

The objectives of decommissioning uranium mines and mills are to remove, minimize and control potential contaminant sources, achieving an end state property that is stable and safe for humans and non-human biota over the long term. Achievement of these qualitative decommissioning objectives is defined in relation to the existing provincial and federal environmental quality objectives and, where objectives are not available, site specific benchmarks are derived. To illustrate the joint regulatory approach the paper describes the final decommissioning plans and objectives for a uranium mine and mill facility that operated for 22 years. The decommissioning activities include the reclamation of tailings, open pits, underground mines and waste rock piles, and the final disposition of all surface infrastructures, including the mill. Cleanup criteria and water quality objectives have been established for decommissioning the site, through regulatory review and public consultation, taking into account the anticipated future use of the site. Modelling and risk assessment have been performed to predict long term ecological effects and potential effects on human health. The results of all the analyses, and in particular the uncertainties in the modelling predictions, were then used to identify follow-up requirements for the project and to identify any contingency measures if the environmental monitoring indicates that the decommissioning objectives may not be achieved or that the potential environmental effects may exceed those predicted.
