WIPP Hydrology Program Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Southeastern New Mexico: Hydrologic Data Report #6

From introduction: This report describes the objectives, scope, design, drilling and hydrologic history, and the test results collected during permeability testing of sub-horizontal boreholes drilled in the waste-handling shaft (WHS) at the Waste Pilot Plant (WIPP) site located in southeastern New Mexico.

Basic Data Report for Drilling and Hydrologic Testing of Drillhole DOE-2 at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) Site (open access)

Basic Data Report for Drilling and Hydrologic Testing of Drillhole DOE-2 at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) Site

From abstract: Drillhole DOE-2 was drilled to investigate a structural depression marked by the downward displacement of stratigraphic markers in the Salado Formation ~ 2 mi north of the center of the WIPP site. This depression was named informally after the shallow borehole FC-92 in which the structure was described. The presence of the depression was confirmed by drilling.

Preliminary Seal Design Evaluation for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (open access)

Preliminary Seal Design Evaluation for the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant

From abstract: This report presents a preliminary evaluation of design concepts for the eventual sealing of the shafts, drifts, and boreholes at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant Facility. The purpose of the seal systems is to limit the flow of water into, through, and out of the repository.

Ejecta from Single-Charge Cratering Explosions: Volume 1 (open access)

Ejecta from Single-Charge Cratering Explosions: Volume 1

"Eight high-explosive charges weighing 8 to 1000 pounds were detonated in playa. Each event included 24 to 40 locations of tracer material in the expected crater region. The objective was to obtain data relating the origin of crater ejecta to its depositional location. Resulting data are presented for craters, ejecta areal densities, crater and ejecta mass quantities, tracer dispersion, and an empirical prediction model."
