User's reference manual for CAMCON: Compliance Assessment Methodology Controller

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7147574

The performance Assessment (PA) Department of Sandia National Laboratories annually compares the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) with the Environmental Protection Agency's Environmental Radiation Protection Standards for Management and Disposal of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level and Transuranic Radioactive Wastes, 40 CFR 191. To assist the analyst in these comparisons the PA Department developed CAMCON, the Compliance Assessment Methodology Controller, which creates an analysis system out of the diverse computer modeling codes needed for this interdisciplinary comparison. This reference manual describes the use of most of the codes in the CAMCON system that an analyst may use when performing the PA comparisons. Although some of the codes included in CAMCON have their own user's guide, this manual summarizes these guides as well to provide the user with one comprehensive document of the codes within the CAMCON system.
