A nuclear power company wanted to construct a deep storage facility within 1/2 mile of Lake huron.
They have now withdrawn their petition after 16 years of pursuit.
The company will now find alternative options for their waste from 20 nuclear reactors.
3.2 million cubic feet for those interested.
"An Ontario nuclear power generating company has officially dropped its pursuit of a deep underground storage facility for low- to intermediate-level radioactive waste within a half-mile of Lake Huron."
This will become an issue as nuclear plants around the world will run out of storage space eventually.
