An investigation into a cyanide spillage that leaked into a pond in Heanor has found no sign of major pollution or impact to wildlife.
Some of the chemical leaked into Adam's Pond at Shipley Country Park in February.
The Environment Agency has said it used a dye to trace the source of the pollutant - this has turned some of the water green.
Visitors are being told not to be alarmed by the colour as it poses no risk to visitors or wildlife.

A new key-cloning scam has led to a spike in car thefts in Leicestershire.
Police have said dozens of cars have been stolen in the county by criminals breaking into the vehicle's computer system.
Other thieves are using scanners to access key fobs in people's homes.
Leicestershire Police said it is "extremely concerned". The force believes some vehicles are being "stolen to order" while others are taken just for "joy riding".

Derbyshire Police, the fire and rescue service and an ambulance are all at the scene of a crash on the A38 at Little Eaton Island.
We've been told it involves a single vehicle but there is no news on any injuries.
The southbound carriageway is closed from Markeaton to Kingsway. It is also closed from Little Eaton Island, including the slip roads coming on to it at Palm Court and Queensway from Kedleston Road.
This is what delays are looking like in the city centre.

Four researchers from Loughborough University are flying to Greenland to set up a series of dust traps.
The team wants to measure the impact of dust on Arctic ecosystems.
They'll fly to Kangerlussuaq and live in a nearby research station for a fortnight while they install the traps.
Some of the dust has been trapped in the ice for centuries, but has recently been released by the melting west Greenland ice sheet.
Project leader Professor Joanna Bullard said: "The aim is to learn just how much dust there is, what it’s made of and where it gets deposited.
“There is now considerable evidence that dust stimulates microbiological activity on the surface of the Greenland ice sheet."

A conman, who posed as a private investigator claiming he could find the facts about loved ones' deaths abroad, has had his jail term lowered.
Simon Delow, 49, of Gloucester, was jailed for 10 years for fraud last year, but a judge at the Court of Appeal has cut the sentence to six years.
Delow targeted the family of Claire Martin, who died of stab wounds in Italy in 2012. The local authorities decided it was suicide.
Her parents Ray and Pat, from Sutton-in-Ashfield, rejected this claim and told the BBC they were contacted by Delow, who called himself Simon D'Gresser.
The Martins could not afford to pay Delow, but others handed over thousands, to end up with nothing more than a report of fabricated leads.

Nottinghamshire head coach Peter Moores believes there is not much to separate the eight counties in Division One of the County Championship.
The Trent Bridge-based outfit begin the 2018 season on Friday against Lancashire, having won promotion from Division Two last season.
"All the teams in Division One are very strong," Moores told BBC Radio Nottingham.
"Only eight [sides] in the first division means that, even if you're playing well, it's hard to get in a position of safety right until the end.
"You're targeting to be in the top three or four going into the second half of the season, so you can have a real push at trying to win it.
"To do that, I think the first five games are big, it's important to get some wins in that and we are going to have to play some good cricket."

One of the first plogging events in Leicestershire this week was a "huge success". Plogging, which is popular in Scandinavia, is the term for picking up litter whilst jogging.
Chemistry lecturer Nicola Jennings from Loughborough University organised the event around the town after taking part in previous events in Staffordshire. During the two mile run, the group collected four bags of rubbish.
