Title: Numerical Simulation of Groundwater Withdrawal at the Nevada Test Site

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/821941· OSTI ID:821941

Alternative uses of the Nevada Test Site (NTS) may require large amounts of water to construct and/or operate. The only abundant source of water at the NTS is groundwater. This report describes preliminary modeling to quantify the amount of groundwater available for development from three hydrographic areas at the NTS. Modeling was conducted with a three-dimensional transient numerical groundwater flow model.
