Waste Package and Material Testing for the Proposed Yucca Mountain High Level Waste Repository

摘要

Through the application of scientific and engineering methods, the Engineered Barrier System continues to adapt to meet the performance requirements established by government regulatory agencies, and the Yucca" Mountain Project. Continuing research and development of the waste package design will help reduce the environmental impact of the proposed geologic nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain, and ensure the success of the project for thousands of years.
