Description
Summary:Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) scientists and engineers reviewed the Phase 1 Site Selection and Development Plan Report prepared by SEG in association with RKK, Ltd. for Martin Marietta. The review comments are given here and are identified as comments of Reviewer 1, Reviewer 2, and Reviewer 3. There may be minor overlaps, but surprisingly, the three reviewers looked at the report from different angles. Two reviewers have been working on ground freezing for more than 20 years each. The third reviewer has a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering. Cryogenic ground freezing is being considered for constructing a barrier to contain waterborne contaminants.
