Shiprock Uranium Mill

Shiprock Mill is a DOE facility for October 1984 to November 1986 so workers are eligible to file Part B and Part E claims.

The former Uranium Mill at Shiprock processed a total of about 1.5 million short tons of uranium ore. This activity is covered under the auspices of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act and is not separately covered under EEOICPA. However, from October 1984 through November 1986 the Department of Energy and its contractors conducted environmental remediation at this location under the auspices of the Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act (UMTRCA). DOE employees and DOE contractor employees who performed this remediation are covered under EEOICPA.
