This paper is a summary of the topical report which describes the methodology that the Department of Energy (DOE) plans to use for the preclosure seismic design of the potential geologic repository at Yucca Mountain. The topical report summarized is the second of three topical reports on seismic assessment and design for Yucca Mountain. Four seismic safety performance categories for seismic design of Yucca Mountain are identified and linked to accepted seismic codes and practices. The methodology and criteria that DOE is proposing to use to design the Yucca Mountain systems, structures, and components for fault displacement is also summarized.
