Performance assessment for a repository in basalt: a summary of preliminary results
Conference

OSTI ID:7035950
The basic objective of ongoing performance assessment studies, conducted by the Basalt Waste Isolation Project (BWIP), is to quantify the waste isolation capability of the deep basalt flows beneath the Hanford Site. This fiscal year a preliminary performance assessment study was initiated to examine and compare the long-term performance of candidate repository horizons within the reference repository location. This paper outlines the BWIP performance assessment approach and summarizes the results from recent analyses of postclosure performance.
