Seems to me they had an accident at the SL-1 reactor

I have the report form that accident. The reactor operators died in that one.

I Understand there was at least one tech in the containment who took a while to remove. Not sure about releases, though.

Was the SL-1 at Hanford or at the former National Reactor Testing Station in Idaho (now the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory?)

NRTS had a very interesting incident in which a jealous lover/husband deliberately fried himself along with his lover and rival at one of its reactors. Somewhere in my dusty files I have a newspaper account of it.
