Panel Says Canada Should Bury Nuclear Waste Near Lake Huron
A
proposed deep geologic nuclear waste repository (DGR) a mile from the
shores of Lake Huron in Canada, recommended by a Canadian joint review
panel, has gotten lots of people riled up. But located 2,230
feet (680 meters) below the Earth’s surface is a good place to put this
low-level and intermediate-level junk, well below any aquifers or
geologic units that supply surface water or that are hydrologically
connected to the lake.
