2012:38 Technical Note, Radiological effects on non-human biota - initial review
The focus of this review was SKB’s assessment of radiological effects on non-human biota in SR-Site according to present regulations and guidance from SSM and it was conducted by Karolina Stark at the Department of Systems Ecology, Stockholm University. In short, the results from this review show that the completeness of the safety assessment can be questioned regarding considered...

2012:63 Technical Note, Review of Radionuclide Sorption on Bentonite and Forsmark Bedrock Material
Denna rapport granskar sorption-data för bentonit och berg vilka har använts i säkerhetsanalysen SR-Site. Det kan konstateras att härledningen av Kd-värden har gjorts på ett systematiskt sätt och att presentationen av resultat är uttömmande. Kontroller visar att härledning och överföring av resultat kan betraktas som spårbar. Det...

2012:58 Technical Note, Independent radionuclide transport modelling – Reproducing results for main scenarios
As part of the initial technical review of SR-Site, we applied a simplified model to approximate Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company (SKB) computations related to the transport of radionuclides at the planned KBS–3 repository at the Forsmark site in Sweden. The objective was to provide insights and recommendations to the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority (SSM) on potential...

2012:60 Technical Note, Handling of climate related issues in the safety assessment SR-Site
The application is based on research carried out over several decades and is an impressive compilation of data and knowledge of the site of Forsmark. The sections on climate, glaciations and permafrost have developed continuously through the earlier compilations reported (e.g. the SR-97-reports). Much has been improved over the years while new question marks have occurred and some known...

2012:68 Assessment of cost for dismantling of Ringhals 2 PWR
The Financing Act stipulates that future expenses for dismantling of Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) shall be financed from segregated funds that are supervised by the Swedish Nuclear Waste Fund (SNWF). Transparency of and confidence in the process to ensure collection of sufficient funds is fundamental for the acceptance and sustainability of the Swedish model for estimating environmental...

2012:62 Technical Note, Review of the MARFA Code
As part of SSM’s Initial Review Phase of SKB’s SR-Site safety assessment of the final disposal of spent nuclear fuel at the Forsmark site, Quintessa has been requested by SSM to review SKB’s MARFA code and consider whether the technical arguments and assumptions used for developing the code are sound, appropriate and adequate to support its use in SR-Site. This Technical Note summarises the...

2012:33 Technical Note, Review of Groundwater Chemistry in SKB’s Safety Assessment SR-Site
This initial review examined SKB’s characterization of groundwater chemistry at the Forsmark site and its evolution during long time periods under different possible climates in the future. The review considered whether the geochemical data provided by SKB are reasonable and sufficient and whether the methods used by SKB for projecting geochemical conditions into the future are appropriate.

2012:37 Technical Note, Selective review of the hydrogeological aspects of SR-Site
This review of the hydrogeology is selective. It focuses on the measurement, interpretation and modelling of the potential repository host rock, that is the rock domain FFM01<-400m. It accepts as reasonably accurate the measurement and representation of the more transmissive parts of the hydrogeological system, particularly the near-surface 150m in the form presented by SKB. SKB have decided...
