Title: Groundwater Pathway Scoping Analysis for Disposal of APT and TEF Wastes

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4900· OSTI ID:4900

The methods used to analyze the long-term performance of APT and TEF waste, with respect to the groundwater pathway, disposed in Intermediate Level vaults are described in this report. The purpose of this work is to reduce the number of radionuclides that need to be considered in a detailed analysis of performance. A methodology was selected that is more rigorous than the screening analysis described earlier1, but still conservative enough that radionuclides shown to have minimal dose impact using the methodology can be neglected with assurance that they would not have produced significant results if included in a detailed computer model.
