Recycle is 95% un-fissioned. Need either recycling infrastructure (like France but newer tech available now) or fast-spectrum reactors (Russia in the lead, god damnit).
Geological repository for what is left, or just put it all underground.
Oklo natural reactors 2 billion years ago show random geology capable of trapping “used” nuclear fuel, so picking good geology not a challenge.
