What proof do you have that this repository would have been safe and
effective? In order for you to make the statement above, a track record
must have been established. As there was none, your comment is little
more than wishful thinking.

All industries can be put out of business overnight. I just read an
article about an American broom manufacturer who will soon be out of
business due to NAFTA. This is the cost of doing business.
It appears to me that if such a repository had been constructed and was
ready for operation, it would have been filled by now. Filled with fuel
waste that was not reprocessed, and waste that will just have to be dug
up again if it is to re-enter the fuel cycle.
