The fuel disposal centers are currently dead. Obama has closed them down. The Thorium Process Reactors that you mentioned can digest the waste from the Uranium Reactors. The problem is the high transuranics, from what I understand. If we skipped developing 4th generation Uranium reactors and went to Thorium LFTR like Oak Ridge lab ran for 5 years, we would probably be better off. LFTR's would be producing a "Tecnomulch" of rare strategic earths........
