From Knox News:

A fire at a uranium processing facility in the Y-12 National Security Complex led to the evacuation of hundreds of workers on the morning of Feb. 22, but officials said the fire was quickly contained and no radioactive material was released.

The fire at the Y-12 in Oak Ridge, a highly secure facility where experts manufacture parts for America’s nuclear weapons and provide enriched uranium to the U.S. Navy, started around 9:15 a.m. in a uranium processing area in building 9212, Y-12 communications manager Taz Painter told Knox News.

Hours after the fire, officials said all evacuated workers were accounted for and no injuries or contaminations were found.

News 12 Chattanooga reported:

[T]he building is a uranium processing site and that air monitors did not go off, which means no radioactive material was released.

Operations have returned to normal, though officials said they are still trying to determine how the fire started.
