Officials haven’t released details about the type of incident reported at the Radioactive Waste Management Complex…”
It’s an “incident” … move along, nothing to see here ….
UPDATE:
Nuke Pro found out what it was … a “radioactive sludge barrel rupture” ….

Mining Awareness – Smoldering Nuclear Waste Barrel Fire At Idaho National Nuclear Lab
” . . . According to the Idaho National Lab web site: “INL is the nation’s lead laboratory for nuclear energy research, development, demonstration and deployment…” In short, they are the lead lab for promoting more nuclear and creating more nuclear waste. But, Idaho managed to sue and get a sweetheart of a deal that says they don’t keep nuclear waste in their state! And, so the nuclear waste barrel which caught fire was to go to the crammed full of nuclear waste and collapsing salt bed mine called WIPP in New Mexico, which has already had a nuclear waste fire.“
