Sampling pipes or tubes are placed against the trench wall, with their lower ends in the French drain, when the trench is dug.

The Canadian nuclear waste disposal concept involves packaging the used fuel within multiple protective barriers then burying it deep within the granitic rock of the Canadian Shield. The barriers include the fuel itself, sealed inside non-corrosive containers; a clay-rich buffer used to enclose the containers; burial inside vaults up to 1, 000 metres below the surface; a mixture of clay and crushed rock used to backfill the vaults; and finally the Canadian Shield granite rock and the glacial overburden.  1, record 25, English, - non%2Dcorrosive%20container

Le concept canadien prévoit la mise en place du combustible irradié dans des conteneurs spécialement étudiés formant des barrières de protection multiples, puis l'enfouissement des conteneurs en profondeur dans la roche granitique du bouclier canadien. Les barrières sont le combustible proprement dit, scellé dans des conteneurs résistant à la corrosion; un tampon riche en argile utilisé pour entourer les conteneurs; des enceintes se trouvant à mille mètres sous la surface et dans lesquelles les conteneurs sont placés; un mélange d'argile et de roches broyées utilisé pour remblayer les enceintes; et, finalement la roche granitique du bouclier canadien et les morts-terrains d'origine glaciaire.  1, record 25, French, - conteneur%20r%C3%A9sistant%20%C3%A0%20la%20corrosion

For both caverns and tunnels, excavation is from the central tunnel ways using conventional mining techniques. In the tunnel concept ..., the prepackaged wastes are lowered down the shaft and brought to the emplacement vaults by rail. The packages are then unloaded by forklifts or other conventional container handling equipment and emplaced for permanent disposal. The cavern concept implements a secondary haulage system where packaged wastes are transferred from rail to the emplacement vaults by overhead crane.  2, record 28, English, - tunnel

The Konrad mine has some geological features which make it very suitable for disposal of certain types of radioactive waste. ...

The concept [burying the waste deep underground in the Canadian Shield] isolates used fuel from the environment using a series of natural as well as manmade barriers. Used nuclear fuel bundles would be contained in vaults 500 to 1, 000 metres below ground. These vaults would consist of a network of tunnels and disposal rooms about 2 kilometres by 2 kilometres that could hold 191, 000 tonnes of used fuel.  3, record 28, English, - tunnel
