    Description
    In 1983 the State of Arizona began an investigation to locate possible Arizona sites for the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Superconducting Super Collider (SSC). Briefly, the SSC is a proton-antiproton particle accelerator consisting of five components (1) an injector complex of four cascaded accelerators which include a 500 foot linear accelerator and three circular synchrotron accelerators up to four miles in circumference; (2) a 52.8 mile collider ring with an inner diameter of 10 feet; (3) experimental areas containing the collision halls and particle detectors; (4) campus/laboratory areas; and (5) site infrastructure consisting of roads and utilities. Of the many criteria outlined for site evaluation by the DOE, the greatest weight was given to geology and tunneling and its impact upon construction and operational costs. An important aspect of the geologic criteria is the surface and subsurface hydrology.
