Is Yucca Mountain safe to add nuclear waste?

Our state has been arguing that point for years, it is remote and deep enough that yes I believe storing waste there is way safer than any other alternative, however people argue that transporting the waste here poses high risks and there is the potential for groundwater contamination and volcanic or earthquake incidents. The fact is how will we ever know what will happen to the waste during its decomposition process, it takes hundreds to thousands of years and no one can predict that far ahead. We could always ship it to the moon but imagine the cost! Nearsightedness is a poor characteristic when dealing with nuclear waste just look at the test site, there are places there that will never be habitable in a dozen generations because of testing. And the ignorance about it in the 50's caused many people sickness and death, I imagine that there are still watches around with radioactive dials.
