Workers clean up an oil spill in the waters of Siberian Yenisei River, which appeared after the accident at the Sayano-Shushenskaya power station, near the settlement of Mayna, August 19, 2009. Ten people were killed on Monday and up to 72 were missing after a turbine room flooded at the Sayano-Shushenskaya power station, Russia's largest hydro-power station, forcing steel and aluminium plants in Siberia to turn to emergency power.
