This report includes data from the C-Pit ponded water and <br /> related groundwater monitoring for the third quarter of 2017, covering the reporting period from June <br /> 31, 2017 to September 30, 2017. Table 1 presents data for the last four quarters. <br /> Compliance monitoring water samples were collected on July 3, 2017 from the CEM-oo1 and CEM-004 <br /> groundwater monitoring wells, and from the C-Pit ponded water. The inspection of groundwater <br /> monitoring well CEM-oo5 on July 3, 2017 indicated that there was not enough water volume to collect <br /> a representative sample. <br /> The samples collected from C-Pit ponded water and the groundwater monitoring wells were analyzed <br /> for pH, chloride, sulfate,total dissolved solids, selenium, and thallium.The reported pH data is based <br /> on the pH analysis performed at the time of sample collection in the field (Table 1). The measured pH <br /> at groundwater monitoring well CEM-004 and analytical results for chloride, sulfate,total dissolved <br /> solids(TDS), selenium and thallium from the July 3, 2017 groundwater sample were within the target <br /> levels prescribed by TR-12, as shown in Table 1. <br /> In addition, a Stiff Diagram of the groundwater cation/anion data from CEM-004 compared to the <br /> average and got" percentile of the cation/anion concentrations from the last four quarterly samples of <br /> C-Pit data is provided in Figure 1 for reference. As shown in Figure 1 and consistent with past reports, <br /> the signature for CEM-004 continues to be significantly different from that of C-Pit. <br />
