Looking at the map, the Pinecastle Impact Range straight line distance is about 25 miles NE of Spanish Springs and from Fenney it's about 35 miles or more. The Dixie Quarry is less than 1/2 mile from Fenney, I would guess it's the quarry.

Here's a link to a map. Top of the map is Fenney, lower right is Coleman Federal Prison and lower left is Dixie Quarry.

From first hand experience, before moving here I lived 13 years eight miles from Aberdeen Proving Ground and Edgewood Arsenal in Maryland, and when they exploded bombs, you felt the entire house shake. I eventually got use to it, but only if you were inside did you notice. I played golf many times on APG and never heard anything. It's like an earthquake, people die from the buildings, not the quake.
