Appendix C: Recharge
Book
·
OSTI ID:925486
This appendix provides estimates of recharge rates for the soil and vegetation conditions in and around the single-shell tank (SST) waste management areas (WMAs). The purpose is to combine published data with recent information to provide the most current recharge estimates. Recharge rates were estimated for areas that remain natural and undisturbed, areas where the vegetation has been disturbed, areas where both the vegetation and the soil have been disturbed, and areas that are engineered (e.g., surface barrier). Methods used include lysimetry, tracers, and simuations. This appendix summarizes the information in the recharge data package for the SST Waste Management Areas), which builds upon previous reports on the Hanford vadose zone data and Integrated Disposal Facility recharge with information available after those reports were published, including field measurements and simulations using weather data through 2006.
