Families have been warned to stay out of the water at two East Lothian beaches after an oil leak from a substation at Torness nuclear power plant.
East Lothian Council has advised people not to bathe at Thorntonloch and Skateraw beach as a clean-up operation gets underway.
The local authority said an electrical fault at the substation caused an automatic fire protection system to activate leading to a mix of oil from the transformer and cooling water overflowing into the drainage system.
