The technology and data base required to license a nuclear repository in a crystalline rock medium, located at or near the Nevada Test Site are being developed. The program consists of three related project areas: field and laboratory studies of the availability and migration of radionuclides in ground water; thermomechanical response of granite, through heater tests at the Climax stock of the Nevada Test Site; and laboratory measurements of physical properties of rocks at elevated temperatures and pressures, including physical/chemical factors that inhibit water transport in deep silicate rocks. Work accomplished in these areas is report. (LK
