Quickly is around 100 000 years. Konrad mine, Asse II mine, WIPP are here to remind that it is not simple.

The engineers who say there is no risk are the same ones who recommended dumping nuclear waste into the sea in the 1960s and 1970s.

I was thinking more like 30 years. With a 100 000 years half-life, the radiation amount should be small enough not to be a problem.

Some waste are dangerous for 300 years but other will kill you even after 100 000 ans. Some need to be store for 1 million years.
