The study is part of a countrywide overview of field data from many countries in the world. The issue has been realized as a part of a Project of the Swedish Nuclear Fuel and Waste Management Company on " Effects of earthquakes on Underground Facilities ". This Project is aimed to assess the seismic hazard on deep repository for spent fuel. The deep repository is designed to keep radiation well below the natural, ambient radiation for any time in the future. The safety function is achieved by a combination of engineered and natural barriers. One important safety issue is that in the future displacements in the rock should not execeed 0.1 m at the precise location where the engineered canister containing the waste are emplaced in the rock. So, the safety case for a deep repository for spent fuel should include an earthquake scenario. The project aims to re-compile field evidences of seismic damage on underground facilities, to shed additional light on the matter of friction loss in bedrock due to water-level changes and finally to find suitable ways to inform concerned citizen on the matter.
