In modern pronunciation, these names, of course, are a distortion of the original, for the Nivkhs called the Nogly-ngi river, and their camp, which was once located on the site of the present regional center, was called Nogl-in.

The evacuation of the population of the village was being prepared, and voluntary fire brigades were being created. There was a dense smog over the Nogliki for several weeks, but every day the firefighters beat the fire from the village farther and farther into the depths of the forest. Precipitation was gone for a very long time. Finally, a few months later it began to rain, which removed most of the fire above the forest around the village.
