Found this report of a bomb threat.

My first thought was scuba diver and illegal alien employees, but that may have been up north.

There have been threats that a plane would fly into one of them.

This source should be noted, it is the first time that I have found a report of a bomb threat report that was made by
a Park Ranger.

Bomb Threat at Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant

Officials at the nuclear power plant at Turkey Point, located just a half mile from park
headquarters and bordering the park, received a phone call advising them of a bomb threat
to the facility around 10 p.m. on Thursday evening.

The land side of the plant was secured, and the Coast Guard was called for assistance in
patrolling the water side of the property. The Coast Guard then called the park for
assistance, since they couldn’t be on scene for 45 minutes. Rangers Tom Rutledge and John
Bittner responded and secured the area until it was determined that there was no longer a
threat.
