Transportation, storage concerns

My name is Leigh Potvin. I'm a lifelong resident of Thunder Bay, a parent, and I'm concerned about the DGR.
There were 600 comments made on
the Initial Project Description. The draft guidelines do not require
enough information about the NWMO's project. I am concerned that the containers for storing waste have not been test to failure. I'm also concerned about transportation and the potential for damage, contamination, and spills. Thedraft guidelines should and must require a
detailed description of long-distance transportation plan, must require a detailed description of the NWMO's used fuel packaging plant and deep geological repository.
