On 18 August, 2009, the heads of the Republic of Khakassiya and JSC RusHydro met with the families of injured, missing and deceased personnel.  We grieve and express our most profound sympathies with families and relatives of the personnel who were at the power station at the time of the accident in their inconsolable sorrow.

All employees of JSC RusHydro and the contractors JSC Gidroenergoremont, LLC Tekhnostroy and OOPSK Avangard S who were injured in the accident will be provided with material assistance and full payment will be made for their treatment.  Families of the deceased will receive compensation of 1 000 000 roubles.  All funeral costs, including for transport, will also be reimbursed.  The company undertakes to maintain and educate children of deceased and injured personnel until they reach their majority.

In addition, company staff will contribute a day’s wages to the assistance fund.  This money will be used to support the families of the deceased, treat and rehabilitate the injured.
