The role of performance assessment was discussed by a group of panelists and the participants of the 20th MRS symposium on the “Scientific Basis for Nuclear Waste Management.” Panel members were Professor Thomas Pigford, Dr. Alan Cooper, and Dr. Patrik Sellin; Dr. Michael J. Apted served as moderator. For discussion purposes, “performance assessment” (PA) was defined as the analysis of the release of radionuclides from a repository system of barriers to the accessible environment.
