The fire has begun on the 28th of July at night. As a result one polyethylene production workshop has been totally destroyed. Fire area was about thousand square meters. Fortunately, no one has been hurt or died because of the fire. The possible reason of fire is inappropriate and unsafe usage of electrical equipment. The majority of hydrants on the factory appeared to be out of order. That is why watering machines turned out to be the only way to put out the fire. More than 65 rescuers were trying to eliminate the consequences of fire. They finally managed to put it out. At the same time violations of fire safety have been determined on the factory. That is why this object will be controlled thoroughly. Oleg Kondrashev ordered to proceed with thorough check of fire safety on all factories in Nizhny Novgorod in order to avoid such incidents in future. The main attention will be paid to objects which are located near the living area.
