The Clean Air Act 1993 and Smoke Control
Areas Under the Clean Air Act local authorities
may declare the whole or part of the district of
the authority to be a smoke control area. It is an
offence to emit smoke from a chimney of a buil-
ding, from a furnace or from any fixed boiler if
located in a designated smoke control area. It
is also an offence to acquire an ”unauthorised
fuel” for use within a smoke control area unless
it is used in an ”exempt” appliance (”exempted”
from the controls which generally apply in the
smoke control area).
The Secretary of State for Environment, Food
and Rural Affairs has powers under the Act to
authorise smokeless fuels or exempt applian-
ces for use in smoke control areas in England.
In Scotland and Wales this power rests with
Ministers in the devolved administrations for
those countries. Separate legislation, the Clean
Air (Northern Ireland) Order 1981, applies in
Northern Ireland. Therefore it is a requirement
that fuels burnt or obtained for use in smoke
control areas have been ”authorised” in Regu-
lations and that appliances used to burn solid
fuel in those areas (other than ”authorised” fuels)
have been exempted by an Order made and sig-
ned by the Secretary of State or Minister in the
devolved administrations.
The Scan-Line 800 series have been recom-
mended as suitable for use in smoke control
areas when burning dry wood logs.

Your local authority is responsible for implemen-
ting the Clean Air Act 1993 including designation
and supervision of smoke control areas and you
can contact them for details of Clean Air Act re-
quirements.
