Geologic disposal of radioactive waste: program plan for field testing
Description
A series of program plans is being developed to address the field testing needs for various candidate repository host rocks: salt, granitic rocks, tuff, and basalt. This document, NWTS-80(1), is the first plan of the series, and is intended to provide the framework on which subsequent, rock-specific program plans will be based. The series of Field Testing Program Plans (the NWTS-80 series) is as follows: NWTS-80(1) - Geologic Disposal of Radioactive Waste: Program Plan for Field Testing; NWTS-80(2) - Program Plan for Field Tests in Salt; NWTS-80(3) - Program Plan for Field Tests in Granitic Rock; NWTS-80(4) - Program Plan for Field Tests in Basalt at Hanford; and NWTS-80(5) - Program Plan for Field Tests in Tuff at Nevada Test Site. These plans will be revised on a regular basis as issues are resolved or new ones identified, to reflect the evolution of the Field Testing Program
