EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN WHIRLWIND MINE
PROCEDURE NO. WW-1 Revision No. New Replaces Procedure: NIA
Page: 2 of 11 Revision Date: New Dated: 06/28/07
SECTION 1: SURFACE FACILITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE
Preface
These procedures have been developed for use by Energy Fuels (EFR) personnel during any response to
an emergency situation at the Whidwind Mine site surface facilities. An emergency situation can include,
but is not limited to, spills of hazardous materials (HazMat), fires, accidents involving personnel and/or
material transport, or any combination of the above. Note that all EFR personnel located on the surface
during an emergency situation are required to respond to the emergency.
These procedures are not to be used for responding to alarms associated with routine operational problems
that occur within the site process and monitoring systems, unless those problems could result in an
emergency situation. Examples of routine operational problems include intrusion alarms and routine
process alarms at the wastewater treatment facilities.
Any emergency situation will be successfully resolved by a phased response consisting of notification,
operations, and remediation. These three phases will be implemented in concert or sequentially depending
upon the specific situation and available personnel.
• PHASE ONE: NOTIFICATION
PHASE TWO: OPERATIONS
PHASE 1.0 NOTIFICATION
PHASE THREE: REMEDIATION
The first person to arrive at the location of an emergency situation becomes the First Responder to
the incident and assumes responsibility for the subsequent emergency response until they are
relieved by an Emergency Coordinator, or voluntarily relinquish their authority to a more qualified
person. The First Responder can be any Energy Fuels employee or a contractor's employee (eg.
truck driver).
The PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY of the First Responder in an emergency situation is the prompt
NOTIFICATION of other site personnel. The First Responder shall immediately relay an incident evaluaticn
to at least one other person prior to initiating the operations phase during an emergency response. The
incident evaluation must include the following information, at a minimum.
a) The location of the incident.
b) The nature of the Incident.
c) The extent of injury, if applicable.
d) The type of material spilled, if known.
e) The physical extent of the spill area.
f) The First Responder's intended course of action.
• g) Available communication devices, if communication must be maintained.
