COMMISSIONING
CAA AND SMOKE CONTROL
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 building, from a furnace
or from any fixed boiler if located in a designated smoke control area.
It is also an offence to acquir e 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
appliances 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 Regulations and that appliances used
to burn solid fuel in those areas (other than "authorised" fuels) have
been exempted by an Order made and signed by the Secretary of
State or Minister in the devolved administrations.
The has been recommended as suitable for
use in smoke control areas when burning wood logs.

Your local authority is responsible for implementing the Clean Air Act
1993 including designation and supervision of smoke control areas
and you can contact them for details of Clean Air Act requirements.
