Building their own version of the WIPP site in New Mexico? (That failed hardcore).

Workers and scientists have carved a sprawling laboratory deep below this sleep dairy town that, despite government reassurances, some of Horonobes 2,500 residents fear could turn their neighbourhood into a nuclear waste storage site. Im worried, said 54-year-old reindeer handler Atsushi Arase. If the government already has its eye on us as a potential site, it may eventually come here even if we refuse.
