From page 7...
... This project would be built at the South Pole, exploiting the large volumes of clear ice to make an extremely large volume detector for observing the secondary charged particle showers caused by high-energy neutrinos interacting with Earth's mass. Second, three proposals have been recently submitted to develop a deep underground laboratory in the United States that would host a variety of proposed or planned experiments requiring the extremely Tow background environment provided by the overburden at a deep subterranean location.

... The report then describes the major science potential of a deep, underground national science laboratory, considering it in the context of ongoing international activities in these research areas. Finally, it presents the committee's conclusions regarding the scientific merit of this research, the unique opportunities and capabilities of these two facilities, and the issue of possible redundancy between the two types of facility.
