The Commission questioned why there had been no analysis on the settling ponds since 1997. CRI [COGEMA Resources Inc.] explained that the average annual evaporation is about equal to annual precipitation, which means the settling ponds have not risen to a point where there is a need to remove the water.

Lorsque la Commission lui a demandé pourquoi il n'y avait pas eu d'analyse des bassins de décantation depuis 1997, CRI [COGEMA Resources Inc.] a expliqué que l'évaporation annuelle moyenne était à peu près la même que la précipitation annuelle et que, par conséquent, la hauteur de l'eau dans les bassins de décantation n'avait pas dépassé le point où on doit extraire de l'eau.
