Well, these are all important considerations that should be resolved in planning, and they usually are.
Location? Where it's cheap and as unintrusive as possible.
Waste? Somewhere ultra-secure and leakproof. (hey, at least it's not going in our lungs and eyes)
Companies? Whoever fulfils the contract most satisfactorily?

That these issues must be thought through is no reason not to go nuclear
