CONT

Burial, also called interment and (when applied to human burial) inhumation, is the act of placing a person or object into the ground. Usually, this is accomplished by digging a pit or trench, placing the person or object in it, and refilling it with the soil that was dug out of it.

Hecho de enterrar un cadáver.

OBS

La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que, para referirse al hecho de enterrar un cadáver y a los servicios relacionados con el enterramiento, en español se emplea preferentemente el término "entierro". Debe evitarse el uso de "funeral", que es un calco del inglés y que en español significa "conjunto de los oficios solemnes que se celebran por un difunto algunos días después del entierro o en cada aniversario de su muerte".

Of the various disposal concepts which have been suggested for LLW, only three were compatible with the geological characteristics of the CRNL property: burial in excavated sand trenches with minor engineered features to inhibit nuclide migration, containment in an engineered below-ground vault; and emplacement in a shallow mined cavity rock.
