The second part means that waste could be brought to the site from remote reactors that are supplying energy to other parts of the world where the earths crust is a lot thicker.

That starts between two hundred and two thousand miles beneath the earth's surface. Drilling that deep is far beyond current technology. Re cornish bob's comments: if you drilled deep enough to hit the liquid part of the mantle, yes you would have hot incredibly high pressure liquid rock spurting in your face. Gerald is right in saying this wouldn't disrupt the current; but it would be far beyond the capabilities of current engineering to produce machinery that could insert waste or even survive those conditions. Overall, probably a 30th century answer to 21st century problem. Besides anything else, these currents are found in the *inner* mantle.
