This volume documents the data available as of August 1991, which were used by the Performance Assessment Division of Sandia National Laboratories in its 1991 preliminary performance assessment of the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). Ranges and distributions for about 300 modeling parameters, several of which are spatially varying parameters with between 15 and 80 point values, and about 500 well locations and corresponding stratigraphic elevations are presented in both tables and graphics for the geologic and engineered barriers, global materials (e.g., fluid properties), and agents that act upon the WIPP disposal system such as climate variability and human-intrusion boreholes. Sources for the data and a brief discussion of each parameter are also provided.
