rainfall of about 15 cm. Conceptual models for flow in the variably saturated
fractured rocks at the Yucca Mt. are developed. However, doubts have been
created about the safety of the proposed repository. If all goes well, the
repository is expected to accept waste in 2010.
In India, the deep abandoned gold mine in the Pre-Cambrian crystalline
rocks (amphibolites) in the Kolar Gold Field is regarded to be a potential
repository for the disposal of HLW (Bajpai, 2004).
