Event Tree Analysis at the Savannah River Site—A Case History
At the Savannah River Site (SRS), a Department of Energy (DOE) installation in west-central South Carolina, a unique geologic stratum exists at depth that has the potential to cause surface settlement resulting from a seismic event. In the past the particular stratum in question has been remediated via pressure grouting, however, the benefits of remediation have always been debatable. Recently the SRS has attempted to frame the risk issue in terms of an event tree or decision tree analysis. This paper describes that analysis, including the input data required.
