"20,000 tons of fuel spilled into a nearby river from a power station" (CNN). Labelled "catastrophic" to the environment as "the concentration of contaminants in nearby waters... exceeded permissible levels tens of thousands of times over." The plant initially tried to contain the spill on its own and not report it, but after two days they reported. Putin has declared a state of emergency for the area. Cleanup costs are estimated at $1.5 billion (a billion rubles) and likely will take 5-10 years. A Russian environmental watchdog said, "There has neve been such an accident in the Arctic zone" (BBC).

This page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_oil_spills lists Norilsk-Taymyr Energy Company diesel fuel spill May 29, 2020. Newsweek and BBC confirm the date by calling it "last Friday."

For now, we can look at it for a noon timing.
