Final report documenting a high-sensitivity airborne radiometric and magnetic survey of the Salina, Moab, Montrose, and Leadville quadrangles including the survey description, specifications, data processing methods, interpretation methods, and regional geologic review.

The Mexican Hat, Utah, Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action (UMTRA) Project site is a former uranium mill that is undergoing surface remediation in the form of on-site tailings stabilization. Contaminated surface materials from the Monument Valley, Arizona, UMTRA Project site have been transported to the Mexican Hat site and are being consolidated with the Mexican Hat tailings. The scheduled completion of the tailings disposal cell is August 1995. Water is found in two geologic units at the site: the Halgaito Shale Formation and the Honaker Trail Formation. The tailings rest on the Halgaito Shale, and water contained in that unit is a result of milling activities and, to a lesser extent, water released from the tailings from compaction during remedial action construction of the disposal cell. Water in the Halgaito Shale flows through fractures and discharges at seeps along nearby arroyos. Flow from the seeps will diminish as water drains from the unit. Ground water in the lower unit, the Honaker Trail Formation, is protected from contamination by an upward hydraulic gradient. There are no nearby water supply wells because of widespread poor background ground water quality and quantity, and the San Juan River shows no impacts from the site. …

From abstract: The report for document C is about the tectonic trends of the northern part of the Paradox Basin of southeastern Utah and southwestern Colorado, as derived from Landsat multispectral scanner imaging and geophysical and geologic mapping. The report for document D is about an uncontrolled X-band airborn radar-image mosaic that was compiled for the western three-fifths of the Moab 1° x 2° quadrangle of southeastern Utah and southwestern Colorado.

During the performance period of the contract, 15 volumes of topical reports and 21 volumes of final technical reports were issued concerning geothermal exploration. These reports are listed. In this ultimate volume of the final technical report, abstracts of all reports, a summary of the highlights of achievements under these reports, and copies of published papers which acknowledge financial support from the contract are included.

Executive Correspondence – Letter dtd 07/27/2005 to Chairman Principi from Senators Orrin Hatch and Robert Bennett, and Representatives Rob Bishop and Chris Cannon requesting the Commission’s approval of two proposed modifications to the 2005 BRAC recommendations issued by the DoD relating to the Deseret Chemical Depot.

From Introduction: "The purpose of the National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) program of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is to identify and delineate areas and environments with the Shiprock 1ºx2º Quadrangle, New Mex., Ariz., Colo., and Utah, that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits that have potential to contain at least 100 metric tons U3O8 total endowment with an average minimum grade of 100 ppm (0.01 percent)."

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over mineral characteristics, uses, and problems. Descriptions of common minerals and their uses are presented and discussed. This report includes tables, maps, and illustrations.

From Introduction: "The Cortez 1º x 2º Quadrangle, southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah (Fig. 1), was studied to identify and evaluate areas and geologic formations that are favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits of specific minimum size and grade."

From introduction: The primary object of this work was to aid prospectors and mining men in finding and exploiting new deposits of uranium-bearing ores in the Colorado Plateau region, particularly of those in the Shinarump and Moss Black members of the Chinle formation.

From Introduction: "This bulletin aims ti bring the salient features of the process to the attention of metallurgists for the purpose of furnishing information to and receiving comments from interested parties with the ultimate hope that the process will be a commercial success."

This study is a part of the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Civilian Radioactive Waste Management (CRWM) Program and discusses the geologic investigations made on the salt beds of the Paradox Formation.

A report discussing a diamond drilling project in the Silver Reef District and adjacent areas, with the propose to obtain geologic information as well as to further explore the Chinle formation for new ore bodies.

A report that used isotopic, mineralogic, and oil-yield data to delineate major hydrologic states, establish the origin of carbonate mineral phases, and determine the controls on the geochemical cycles of carbon and oxygen.

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing uranium mining methods. As stated in the introduction, "the Federal Bureau of Mines is publishing a series of studies on the methods and costs of mining uranium on the Colorado Plateau. This report describes the long-wall mining methods and techniques used at the Radon mine, Big Indian district, San Juan County, Utah" (p. 1). This report includes maps, tables, illustrations, photographs.

From Introduction: "The Moab 1ºX2º Quadrangle, east-central Utah and west-central Colorado (Fig. 1) was studied to identify and evaluate areas and geologic formations that are favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits of specific minimum size and grade."

From Introduction: "The Escalante 1º X 2º Quadrangle, south-central Utah, (Fig. 1) was studied to identify and evaluate areas and geologic formations considered favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits."

From Introduction: "The Salina 1ºx2º Quadrangle, in central Utah, (Fig. 1) was studied to identify and evaluate areas and geologic formations that are favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits deposits of specific minimum size and grade."

This report is an issue of the original draft copy of the "Interim Staff Report on Uranium Exploration on the Colorado Plateau", dated June 1951. The original draft copy was only recently located and is being published at this time because of the interest in the contained historical content.

A report presenting the preliminary results of geologic reconnaissance and office work leading to an appraisal of the geologic relations of the uranium deposits of the San Rafael district, Emery County, Utah.

A report about new geochemical, biogeochemical, and sedimentological data gathered from the depositional basins of the Green River Formation.

"The purpose of this profile is to summarize the ecological information available for and relevant to stream and riparian habitats of the Great Basin. The Great Basin comprises the northern half of the Basin and Range physiographic province and covers most of Nevada and western Utah and portions of California, Oregon, and Idaho. The entire basin actually consists of numerous subbasins and mountain ranges which present an extremely diverse physical setting" (p. iii).
