Spill oil, presumably diesel fuel and bilge waters, contaminated the area of 185 sq. m at the site where a Griffin-4 ship had sunk on the Don River, near a local shipyard. According to the Rosprirodnadzor’s Southern Federal District Department report, emergency agencies have barred off the polluted area. However, some oil patches, lubricants were noticed around the slick bars. To estimate the degree of contamination of waters the agency will carry out further laboratory studies, the report said.
Earlier reports said, the incident occurred when the ship sank on March 1st in the waters of the Obukhov dockyard (Obukhov Shipyard Shiprepair CJSC, Azov district of Rostov region). Inspectors of the Federal Supervising Agency’s Taganrog department moved to the scene after the report came.
