This paper reports on the use of uranium concentrations and {sup 234}U/{sup 238}U ratios in saturated-zone and perched ground water to investigate hydrologic flow and downgradient dilution and dispersion in the vicinity of Yucca Mountain. Results of the project are described. Yucca Mountain is a potential high-level radioactive waste disposal site for U.S. sources of radioactive waste.
