摘要
This paper summarizes the historical development of the United States Department of Energy's (DOE's) 2008 performance assessment for the proposed high-level radioactive waste repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, and explains how the methods and results meet regulatory requirements specified by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Topics covered include (i) screening of features, events and processes, (ii) development of scenario classes, (iii) descriptions of barrier capability, and (iv) compliance with applicable quantitative standards for individual protection, individual protection following human intrusion, and ground water protection.
