Request clarification on the hydrogeological modeling used to determine connectivity between the Revell batholith and the sub-watersheds that feed the local aquifers in the Melgund area.
Strategic Rationale
Verifying the lack of hydraulic connectivity is essential for risk management and to provide technical assurance to residents regarding the long-term isolation of radioactive materials from the local water table.
