We describe the light-cone wavefunction in the saturation regime in terms of the density of gluons per unit of transverse phase space, the occupation number, and in terms of the color charge correlator. The simple McLerran- Venugopalan model gives what are claimed to be general results for the phase space gluon density, but it does not well describe the general case for the charge correlator. We derive the general momentum dependence and rapidity dependence of the color charge correlator which exhibits strong color shielding. A simplel physical picture which leads to these general results is described.
