Florida Power & Light reported to nuclear regulators that 33 Cubans landed in the cooling canals of the Turkey Point nuclear power plant on Thanksgiving.
The report indicates that at 1:28 p.m. Thursday a member of the Cuban group called the Turkey Point control room saying they had landed in the canal area with 29 adults and four children.
The control room then called plant security, "who located and assumed control over the Cuban nationals without incident." Security called Miami-Dade police for assistance. Police arrived at 2:25 p.m., which then called U.S. Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Telephone calls to Border Patrol were not immediately returned.
FPL said in an e-mail that the plant site was not affected in any way.
