Sure, as a matter of fact the *only* reason why there are so few deep geology storage sites for nuclear waste is that there was *too few* of it to make economical sense. For example the whole UK nuclear industry produced slightly over 2000 m3 of high-level waste during the whole 60 years of operation! You don't build a huge underground site for such amount, you just keep it in at the plant (that's the whole waste of Swiss nuclear program for the last 40 years or so).
