“…More recently, the concomitant difficulties of monitoring the movement of liquid toxic wastes injected into such complex porous media are beginning. to receive special attention [Cherry et al, 1973;Papadopulos and Winograd, 1974;Kaufman and McKenzie, 1975]. A major assumption common to, but not implicit in, modeling of regional fl0w of fluids and dissolved or colloidal constituents through such media is that to a first approximation they can be treated as homogenous if (1) their heterogeneity is randomly distributed and (2) the heterogeneities are small in comparison to the aquifer area modeled.…”

“…Studies done at low-level waste-burial grounds and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's technical requirements (table C-5) provide a basis on which to investigate the adequacy of landfills to contain hazardous-chemical wastes and to develop criteria for siting. A prototypic study by Papadopulos and Winograd (1974) is a good example of the investigations that can be done for landfills. These authors investigated various hydrogeologic and geochemical factors and appraised their effects on the movement of radioactive wastes from burial grounds.…”
