I was oversimplifying, but that is the general consensus for nuclear waste. You find a geologically stable mountain range in the middle of a desert where there's not a ton of wildlife to worry about and dig straight down a few hundred meters and slap a lead slab on top for good measure. Yucca Mountain is the archetypal one I had in mind.

Yucca mountain is a shoshone sacred site and the colonists have no buisness dumping uranium there.
Well, shit. I had no idea, yeah fuck that then. There has to be another mountain that fits the criteria out there though.
