This paper discusses the conducting of prototype activities in welded and non-welded tuff. The authors report that these activities are in preparation for characterization of the Yucca Mountain area, which is under consideration as a site for a geologic repository in which high-level nuclear waste could be safely stored. Investigators from organizations conducting the site investigation have been afforded opportunity, through the prototype program, to test, evaluate, and develop instruments, equipment, and methods.
