To support future Unreviewed Disposal Question Evaluations (UDQEs), Special Analyses (SAs) and/or Performance Assessments (PAs) for the E-Area Low-Level Waste Facility (LLWF) at the Savannah River Site (SRS), the Hydrologic Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) model and a newly developed, Python-based, probabilistic model employing a Monte Carlo sampling technique were used together to generate infiltration degradation curves over a 10,000-year simulation period for both intact and subsided slit- and engineered-trench closure-cap scenarios. The results will be used in PORFLOW transport model simulations of the E-Area LLWF trench units.
