Cover of the Ten-Year Plan to Address Impacts of Uranium Contamination in the Navajo Nation

The 2020-2029 Ten-Year Plan continues the effort of the previous Five-Year Plans and identifies the next steps in addressing the human health and environmental risks associated with the legacy of uranium mining on the Navajo Nation. The Ten-Year Plan was developed in cooperation with multiple federal partner agencies including Bureau of Indian Affairs, Department of Energy, Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Navajo Area Indian Health Service, and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry to incorporate goals and milestones for achieving assessment and cleanup actions.

The documents below include the current Ten-Year Plan (2020-2029) and previous Five-Year Plans to address impacts of uranium contamination, as well as contacts, resources, fact sheets and progress reports.
