Are modeling and uncertainty and sensitivity analyses required to be included in the LSN?
A. Yes. DOE will be required to develop complex predictive models of repository performance. Models will be used to analyze natural features, events, and processes; to develop the design of engineered systems, to assess repository performance; to evaluate the expected impact of the repository on the reference biosphere; and to demonstrate compliance with performance objectives. DOE is required to consider alternative conceptual models of repository features and processes consistent with available data, and to evaluate the effects that different models have on predicted repository performance. DOE must also explain the technical bases for the models relied on to demonstrate compliance with performance objectives in accordance with 10 CFR 63.
