Bureau of Mines Review of Department of Energy Report: 'Exploratory Shaft Design Basis Study Review'. Final Technical Report
The Basalt Waste Isolation Project (BWIP) is an investigative program being conducted by the US Department of Energy to determine the feasibility of locating a nuclear waste repository in the deep basalts beneath the Hanford Site in south-central Washington. As part of the site characterization phase of the program, an Exploratory Shaft Facility (ESF) will be constructed to conduct in situ testing for site characterization and feasibility. The Bureau of Mines has been solicited by DOE, through an Interagency Agreement, to review the subject report as an independent reviewer. The review of this report covers three general areas: hydrology, ventilation, and shaft sinking and excavation. The hydrology section evaluates water inflow parameters and quantities and the water inflow range. The ventilation section evaluates underground ventilation air quantities; methane inflow parameters and quantities; gassy mine cost impacts; shaft ventilation and conveyance velocity criteria; and methane release rate. The shaft sinking and excavation section evaluates the second shaft cost estimate and hoisting; underground development schedule; and underground drifting. 8 refs. (ERA citation 13:035774)
