Design Your Study—Part I Due by 11/3/16 and Remediation

Please look through the following articles and reports for HW #10 background info Dawn Mining Co. Midnite Mine (Spokane, Washington) (EPA Region 10), from HW #9 background reading Decommissioning of Midnite Mine and Ford Uranium Mill and Tailings (USA). Contents: · Dawn Mining Co. Midnite Mine (Spokane, Washington) · Dawn Mining Co. Ford (WA) Mill and Mill Tailings. ATSDR finds public health hazard possible at former Midnite Mine; seeks public comments on draft assessment. EPA orders cleanup work; judge holds Newmont liable; cleanup plans outlined. The background information notes uranium mining activity, contamination issues, regulatory actions, and health/environmental concerns at the Midnite Mine site. The remediation goals include reducing metal oxide deposition, maintaining pH, and restoring ecosystem function. You are tasked with designing a remediation plan that addresses water quality, ecological impacts, and community safety based on this background. Your plan should include: the purpose of the remediation, a summary of initial site studies, key physical/chemical/biological parameters, a site assessment strategy, necessary pre-remediation information, remediation and monitoring methods—including diagrams—and a project timeline. Additionally, incorporate relevant findings from the articles to support your proposed approaches. As an environmental engineering consulting firm, produce a comprehensive 3-5 page report that provides a detailed, actionable remediation plan. Properly cite all sources used in your research. Focus on sustainable, effective remediation techniques, feasible monitoring strategies, and the long-term ecological and community safety outcomes.
