I’m in Utah, and people here push back against nuclear, but we literally live next to a massive desert. Nobody cares if we dig a big hole in W. Utah or E. Nevada, we can bury it however deep we need and it’s not going to impact the water table at all (we don’t really have a water table here anyway…)
If you don’t have water nearby, you’re not going to be able to use nuclear power in any utility grade scale there.
