The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is the only active deep geological repository in the United States for the disposal of defense-related transuranic (TRU) waste, located in the northern part of the Delaware Basin in southeastern New Mexico, approximately 26 miles east of Carlsbad. The repository is situated 2,150 feet (about 610 meters) underground within the Salado Formation, a thick layer of stable salt deposits. This unique geological formation provides a secure and long-term environment for isolating TRU waste, ensuring its safe containment for thousands of years.
