During the excavation of four rooms for an experiment demonstrating the disposal of radioactive wastes in salt mines, a number of unique rock deformation measurements were made. Since the new rooms were higher stratigraphically than the surrounding o

Project Salt Vault is a field-scale demonstration of the disposal of high-level radioactive wastes in a salt mine. Preparations required for the experiment included construction of a new headframe for the main mine shaft. renovation of the existing s

The concept of disposal of radioactive wastes in mined caverns in geological formations was proposed over two decades ago. During the formulative years of study, the research and development activities were directed primarily to the disposal of waste

An engineering data base relevant to subsidence due to sulfur mining and to structural failure of cavities in salt is established, evaluated and documented. Nineteen failure events are discussed. Based on these documented failure events, capabilities
