To all - brief NYT piece on heating failure in some Russian villages. January 8, 2000 Heating Failure in Russia's Far East Filed at 4:14 a.m. EST By The Associated Press MOSCOW (AP) -- Thousands of people in Russia's Far East were without central heating for a second day Saturday as temperatures hovered around minus 15 degrees, a news report said. About 6,800 residents in the village of Ugolnye Kopi lost heating on Friday because a pump supplying water to the village's central boiler failed, the ITAR-Tass news agency said. Another 2,100 people in Mys Shmidta lost heating for the same reason Saturday, but heating was restored to about half of the people later in the day, according to the report. Mys Shmidta is located on the Chukchi Sea coast above the Arctic Circle, while Ugolnye Kopi is just below the Arctic Circle on the Bering Sea. ITAR-Tass said people in the villages were using electric heaters in an effort to keep their apartments warm. Copyright 2000 The New York Times Company
