Up to 200 people have been asked to leave their homes after a "potentially volatile" substance was found in a flat.
Police are working with council emergency planners to move families from homes within 100m of the find in Newhall, South Derbyshire, as a precaution.
A 55-year-old man was arrested after the substance was discovered during a search of the flat in Belvoir Crescent on Saturday afternoon.
Superintendent Paul Markham, who is in charge of the operation, said: "We are not looking for anyone else in connection with this matter and we are hoping that people will not be inconvenienced for too long.
"The evacuation is purely a precaution to ensure everybody's safety and residents will be allowed back home as soon as possible."
