Study of estimation of hydrogeological structures based on fluctuation of groundwater pressure at Horonobe area, Hokkaido, northern Japan

Yokota, Hideharu; Tomura, Goji; Maekawa, Keisuke

Proceedings of 3rd International Workshop and Conference on Earth Resources Technology 2009 (CD-ROM), p.169 - 178, 2009/12

Japan Atomic Energy Agency has been carrying out Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory Project for understanding of characteristics of the geological environment as a part of research and development programs on geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste. As developing techniques for long-term monitoring of geological environment, we have been measuring the groundwater pressure using boreholes in order to monitor any influences due to the construction of the underground facilities. The results from examination of relations with the data of the long-term monitoring of groundwater pressure, geological characteristics obtained from the drilling cores, logging data and hydraulic characteristics of the boreholes suggest the existing of the continuative hydrogeological structure at the neighborhood of a feature geological boundary, and that the distribution of continuative hydrogeological structures around the underground facilities depends on the geological characteristics not the depth from ground level.

Hydrogeological investigations of surface-based investigation phase of Horonobe URL project

Kurikami, Hiroshi; Takeuchi, Ryuji; Yabuuchi, Satoshi; Seno, Shoji*; Tomura, Goji; Shibano, Kazunori; Hara, Minoru; Kunimaru, Takanori

Japan Atomic Energy Agency has been conducting the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory (URL) project in Horonobe, Hokkaido, as a part of the research and development program on geological disposal of high-level radioactive waste. This paper shows the results of hydrogeological investigations in the surface-based investigation phase of the project. Hydrological and meteorological investigations show that the infiltration rates of the drainage basins varies and that the infiltration rate depends on the flora and the topography. The hydraulic tests using the deep boreholes reveals that hydraulic conductivity of the scale of a few decameters to a hundred meter varies widely and decreases with depth in the same formation, while the laboratory hydraulic tests suggest that hydraulic conductivity of the intact rock is influenced by the stress history. The hydraulic tests and the long-term monitorings of hydraulic pressure clarify relatively high pressure in the deep underground. Furthermore, groundwater flow analysis shows that the groundwater in and around the URL area flows regionally from the east to the west and depends locally on the geography and geology.

Horonobe Underground Research Center of Japan Atomic Energy Agency has been investigating surface hydrogeological features in and around the Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory (URL) area as a part of Horonobe URL project. In the surface hydrogeological investigation, for the purpose of understanding of groundwater recharge rate and groundwater flow in the shallower part, which are required for the setting of boundary and initial condition of the groundwater flow analysis, meteorological observations, observation of river flux and water quality, soil moisture observation, groundwater level observation, etc are being continued. This report shows present status and results of surface hydrogeological investigation in the Horonobe URL project.

The Horonobe URL Project started in 2000. Research and development activities are planned over three phases, that will span a total duration of about 20 years: the 1st surface-based investigarion phase (6 years), the 2nd URL construction phase (8 years) and rhe 3rd operation phase (12 years). Geological, geophysical, geo-mechanical, hydrogeological, and hydro-geochemical investigations have been carried out during the surface-based investigation.

The Horonobe Underground Research Laboratory (URL) Project is being pursued by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) to enhance the reliability of relevant disposal technologies through investigations of the deep geological environment within the host sedimentary formations at Horonobe, northern Hokkaido. The project consists of two major research areas, "Geoscientific Research" and "R&D on Geological Disposal", and proceeds in three overlapping phases, "Phase I: Surface-based investigation", "Phase II: Construction" and "Phase III: Operation", over a period of 20 years. The present report summarises the results of the Phase I geoscientific research carried out from March 2001 to March 2005. Integration of work from different disciplines into a "geosynthesis" ensures that the Phase I goals have been successfully achieved and identifies key issues that need to be addressed in the Phase II/III investigations.
