We derive a macroscopic model for an underground nuclear waste repository consisting of long storage cells linked by a possibly damaged drifts. As the first result we find a simple first-order approximation. Secondly, we compute a corrector using a matched expansion around the drift. We prove an appropriate convergence result.
