Is it safe to put potentially hazardous liquid wastes in underground rock?

Its unbelieveably safe. So safe, indeed, that we now start digging up depots of radioactive and other hazardous waste that the generation before us dumped in caverns and salt deposits that were supposed to last 100000 years. The "safe" desposits are now contaminating ground water and posing a uncalculable threat to us. And, digging them up now costs many times more than it would have cost to dispose of that waste in a more intelligent way in first place :-/
