Why aren't nuclear plants required to disclose how and where they will dispose of nuclear waste?

Many people are not aware of how it is disposed of until it is a topic in the media. I don't find any comfort in the fact that Kincardine will be burying its nuclear waste .How do they guarantee it will not contaminate the soil or leak out into Lake Michigan ?

Update:

EDIt I guess what I really want to know is if they are going to bury this nuclear waste is it enclosed in something and how can they monitor to see if it is leeching into the soil or water system.I don't think the general public needs a schedule of when or where it will be disposed of bu I think the public has a right to know that the soil and water will not be contaminated.One has only to turn on the computer,pick up a paper or listen to the news to realize there is no shortage of fanatics that will go to any lengths to support a cause.
