What is the name of the Defunct nuclear waste storage site in Nevada?
It is the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository.
Where should nuclear waste not be stored?
This is a trick question Nuclear waste should not be stored at all. But as we have some and need to store it, where is an important consideration. Transport is risky. Where you store it has to be able to handle it if it leaks for a million years or so, at least until its safe to handle. The US government has a facility that sounds good, A old salt mine that could hold the danger for a very long time. But is it really in a geologically stable place? Can it leak waste? Will there be an accident moving the waste? Should special storage be built where the waste is?
Which countries have nuclear waste problems?
All countries that have nuclear reactors have nuclear waste and it is always a problem, though a manageable one.
What is concentrate and contain method?
its a method use in nuclear waste management where the waste is concentrated and then isolated. this method also use for non nuclear waste management.
What source of energy produces radioactive waste?
Nuclear Energy
Where does the US send nuclear waste?
For now nuclear waste is stored on site where the waste was generated. In a few years US will begin to store nuclear waste in Yucca Mountain, Nevada but no official date has been set.
What does Yucca Mountain have to do with nuclear radiation?
Yucca Mountain is a proposed repository site for storing high-level nuclear waste in the United States. The site was chosen for its geologic stability and isolation to prevent radiation from reaching the environment. If approved and constructed, Yucca Mountain would be used to store spent nuclear fuel and other radioactive waste generated by nuclear power plants.

What does nuclear waste have to do with Nevada?
There was a proposal to build a long term waste store at Yucca Mountain in Nevada but this seems to have been abandoned, waste is to be stored on the power plant sites as it has been ever since they were built.
Is the proposed national storge site for nuclear waste?
Yucca Mountain
Where is the Yucca mountain located?
The Yucca Mountain is in western Nevada alongnear the California border. Yucca Mountain was considered for a repository for nuclear waste. Those plans were stopped 2010.

Where does the US government plan to restore the radioactive waste from nuclear power plants?
They plan to store it below the base ofYucca Mountain in the VERY BARREN Nevada Yucca Desert

Waste stored in a plant and why?
It should be stored in safe storage in sparsely inhabited, seismically quiet areas. But, here kicks in NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard). See about Yucca mountain nuclear waste storage.
How can we deal with nuclear waste?
reduce, reuse, recycle, and store whatever is left.
