Abstract
US DOE published the CRWMS Project Viability Assessment Report of a potential repository at Yucca Mountain (VA) in december 1998. Comments from internal and external review groups to consider alternative designs resulted in the following: - Formation of an Alternatives Working Group (early 1998) - Establishment of License Application Design Selection (LADS) Team to develop a recommendation for a repository design as a basis for a Site Recommendation and potential License Application (SR/LA)
