How long do we have to store it on site? Does it take any maintenance? Is there any reason to be worried about people stumbling upon it and opening it up in the distant future where nobody can read or understand English anymore?

I'm completely serious. It was done extensively during the 20th century and never became an environmental issue. Nuclear waste is a social problem, not a technical problem.
