From the Asia Times:

Not far from the fabled Silk Road city of Dunhuang in northwestern Gansu province, Chinese scientists are drilling boreholes deep into the Beishan Mountains. It is here that China expects to permanently store the radioactive wastes that are accumulating from its rapidly expanding nuclear power industry. In the next few weeks – before the end of the year certainly – Beijing is expected to make a decision on who will get contracts to provide reactors for four new nuclear power plants being built along China’s coast, two at Sanmen in Zhejiang province and two others at Yangjiang in Guangdong province.
