Baseline Risk Assessment of Ground Water Contamination at the Uranium Mill Tailings Site Near Durango, Colorado
This risk assessment evaluates the possibility of health and environmental risks from contaminated ground water at the uranium mill tailings site near Durango, Colorado. The former uranium processing site`s contaminated soil and material were removed and placed at a disposal site located in Body Canyon, Colorado, during 1986--1991 by the US Departments of Energy`s Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action (UMTRA) Project. Currently, the UMTRA Project is evaluating the nature and extent of ground water contamination at the site. This risk assessment follows an approach similar to that used by the US Environmental Protection Agency. The first step is to determine what site-related contaminants are found in ground water samples. The next step in the risk assessment is to determine how much of these contaminants people might ingest if they got their drinking water from a well on the site. In accordance with standard practice for this type of risk assessment, the highest contaminant concentrations from the most contaminated wells are used. The risk assessment then explains the possible health problems that could result from this amount of contamination.

Long-Term Surveillance Plan for the Bodo Canyon Disposal Site, Durango, Colorado
This long-term surveillance plan (LTSP) for the Durango, Colorado, Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action (UMTRA) Project disposal site describes the surveillance activities for the Durango (Bodo Canyon) disposal site, which will be referred to as the disposal site throughout this document. The US Department of Energy (DOE) will carry out these activities to ensure that the disposal site continues to function as designed. This LTSP was prepared as a requirement for acceptance under the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) general license for custody and long-term care of residual radioactive materials (RRM). RRMs include tailings and other uranium ore processing wastes still at the site, which the DOE determines to be radioactive. This LTSP is based on the DOE`s Guidance for Implementing the UMTRA Project Long-term Surveillance Program (DOE, 1992).

[Cochran Family Films, No. 5 - Colorado Vacation]
This home movie documents the daily lives and activities of the Cochran family including fishing trips and vacations in Colorado. The film begins with footage of the family socializing and fishing at a boat house and a trip to what appears to be New Mexico where the children swim in a hotel pool (00:00-03:57). The remainder of the film takes place during the family's Colorado vacation (03:57-23:09). The family rides go carts at Pagosa Hot Springs, boards the Denver & Rio Grande train in Durango where they observe Native Americans performing for tourists, and shoot footage from the moving train. This footage includes a man making his own home movies from the roadside of the train passing (13:16) and a man riding a horse alongside the train. The family next stops at the Manor Hotel and visits a marker dedicated to the Reverend Marvin and his children Amelia and Pauline Hudson. They observe Bear Creek Falls and Mount Abrams in the Uncompahgre National Forest, the Continental Divide at Monarch Pass, and end the film with a stop at an old West town likely in Colorado Springs where they watch a gun fight performance.
