⚠️ Blue-Green Algae Warning ⚠️
With more than four reported cases of dogs dying this month after encountering blue-green algae, we are asking dog owners to take extra precautions when walking their pets near water bodies this summer.
Avoid all contact with the affected water and ensure children and pets are kept away.
Report the suspected bloom to the relevant authorities, Bloomin' Algae app or website: This is the preferred method for reporting suspected blooms and will alert you to confirmed locations.
East Lothian Council Environmental Health: Contact them directly (email [email protected] or phone 01738 475000) if you can't use the app.
SEPA Pollution Hotline: Call 0800 80 70 60 to report pollution incidents
