   The reason that this is not a problem is that earthquakes (and 
volcanoes) only happen along the fault lines between tectonic plates.  
SSD says that the cannisters would be placed in the center of the abyssal 
plains which are in the center of the tectonic plates under the ocean.  
These areas have been geologically stable for 65 million years.
