of ways of making almost all
nuclear wastes in materials
as stable as many of the rocks
in nature."
"The United States," Roy
said, "now stores about 80
million gallons of high-level
radioactive wastes as liquid
in tanks in isolated areas of
the country. By the year 2,000,
this amount will increase
significantly and it has little
to do with whether or not we
build nuclear power plants."
Half a dozen ways now exist
to solidify these wastes into
stable solids, Roy added,
including making them into
monolithic blocks of glass,
into a special concrete or into
a metal-cement-glass com
posite.

multiple-barrier approach is
planned, Roy said. Thus,
the solid would be buried in a
deep shaft far from major
population centers, after
being encased in layers of
steel and concrete in turn
protected by 1,000 feet of oil
and rock.
The issue which legiilators
ultimately will face is which
method will be safe enough at
the price the taxpayer is
willing to pay, Roy said. A
decade will be needed to
choose a method, to devise
regulations and to build the
necessary facilities. The
estimate for the cost of
disposing of existing wastes
already is up to $3O billion,
Roy added.
