Description
Human activity unrelated to the repository may result in pollution of the groundwaters, surface waters, soils and sediments. In the case of groundwater pollution, contaminants could change the geochemistry of the geosphere aquifers, and hence affect the speciation, solubility and sorption of radionuclides released from the repository and the host rock. This is not considered any further.
