    PUBLIC HEALTH ASSESSMENT
    MONTICELLO MILL TAILINGS (DOE)AND
    MONTICELLO RADIOACTIVELY CONTAMINATED PROPERTIES
    (aka MONTICELLO VICINITY PROPERTIES)

    There are two National Priorities List (NPL) sites in Monticello, San Juan County, Utah: the Monticello Mill Tailings Site (MMTS) and the Monticello Vicinity Properties (MVP). Bothsites are associated with the Monticello Uranium Mill.
    The Monticello Mill Tailings Site is a former uranium and vanadium processing mill. It isdivided into three distinct operable units: the mill site tailings and mill site property; theperipheral properties; and surface water, groundwater, and contaminated sediments in Montezuma Creek Canyon. The mill posed a public health hazard when it was operating. Thetailings that remain on the mill site would be a public health hazard today if the public hadaccess to the mill site. However, access is strictly controlled: the mill site, therefore, does notpose a threat to area residents.
