Workers at a nuclear waste treatment plant in Washington state were texted an alert telling them to “take cover” on Oct. 25, due to steam coming from a tunnel, according to reports.

A spokeswoman for Bechtel, the firm building the plant, told Q13 that the alert to workers was sent as a precaution.
