Blues, Dave It is my belief that nuclear power plants are built better than Jane Fonda. I was reading about the underground nuclear test sites. The rock liquifies and then solidifies once again into a type of glass (I do not know how thick). The holes are a mile square and 50 ft deep. They are already radioactive. They are huge caverns. They are glass lined. Seems like a large storage facility that will never have any other use. Encase the spent fuel in concrete or plastic and put them in the cavern.

Alternately, one could vitrify the spent fuel (turn it into glass) before storing it in remote caverns... Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"
