* "The situation is very serious," Sylwia Winiarek, the
spokeswoman of ArcelorMittal's Polish unit, said when asked
about the cuts to power supplies in Poland due to the heatwave.
* "We are currently getting the minimum power required,
which has already forced us to start a standstill of certain
downstream installations in (Polish) Dabrowa Gornicza, Krakow,
Sosnowiec and Swietochlowice," she said.
* "The most important issue now is to maintain the
production of our primary operations, including blast furnaces
and steel shops, as bringing them to a halt would result in
their irreversible damage," she said.
