Figure 8. Generalized longitudinal hydrogeologic section across central Yucca Flat showing mechanical effects of underground testing. Underground test locations obtained from U.S. Department of Energy (1994). Cavity dimensions and fracture zones calculated using measurements of cavity radius and working-point depths as summarized in classified listing of test parameters (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, written commun., 1991). Locations of sections is shown in figure 9.
