Those digs may or may not accommodate nuclear waste with a very high degree of safety. What's sure is that nobody will be really responsible if (when?) the sh*t hits the fan, especially because some waste may kill or maim in the distant future (thousands years), or in stealth mode (polluting a phreatic zone). When the Chernobyl plant was under construction a soviet newspaper claimed that "it will be so safe it could be built on the Red Square". When the disaster happened, the author of this claim was nowhere to be found.
