About article:
The safe disposal of nuclear fuel waste poses a special challenge to resource managers and governments. Not only is the material to be disposed of highly dangerous, but it requires isolation from the habitable environment for thousands of years. The planning horizons of most organizations rarely exceed a decade. In Canada, the process is under way to evaluate the feasibility of disponsing nuclear fuel waste in a deep geological repository. This paper reviews the method by which this proposed facility is being evaluated and examines some of the consequences of the assessment procedure.
