The United States DOE is investigating the suitability of Yucca Mountain (YM) as a potential site for the nation`s first High-level Nuclear Waste Repository. The focus of this paper is to discuss what is currently known about the Near-Field (NF) environment, particularly those aspects whose interaction with the Engineered Barrier System (EBS) components have significant impacts on the performance of the EBS and its ability to contribute to the isolation of radioactive waste.
