The resulting contaminant plumes are <br />overlain on the geologic cross section for the area. The figures show the extent of <br />constituents of concern after 1000 years of transport under steady-state conditions. The <br />concentration intervals represent 1/1000a` and 1/1E-06 of the initial concentration of <br />constituents of concern in the pore water of the waste rock pile. <br />9 <br />
