SAFETY - RELATED ASPECTS DUE TO ORGANIC AND INORGANIC WASTE CONSTITUENTS

摘要

To demonstrate the safety of a geological repository in the post-closure phase possible releases ofradionuclides as well as organic and inorganic substances via the water path are to be investigated. In theappendix to the ordinance on groundwater protection of March 18, 1997, those families and groups ofsubstances are listed which may cause a harmful pollution of groundwater or a detrimental change of itscharacteristics. Within the licensing procedure for the Konrad repository project it was shown that therespective organic and inorganic substances listed in this appendix as well as in further relevantdocuments may not reach or may reach the groundwater in a quantity so small as to obviate the danger ofa deterioration of the groundwater.
