Smoke Control Areas

Abstract

Dundee is covered by a network of 21 Smoke Control Areas, established under Section 18 of the Clean Air Act 1993. Under the Clean Air Act 1993, it is an offence to emit smoke from a chimney of any building in a smoke control area. It is also an offence to burn solid fuel in a home or other premises unless the fuel is: * an 'authorised smokeless fuel' (standard house coal and wood are not authorised fuels); or * burnt in an 'exempt appliance'.

Quality and validity

Lineage

The orders creating the Smoke Control Areas were made between 1958 and 1980, and described the extent of the area in the text (no map is included within the Orders). The boundaries were created following the description in the order using maps from the date of entry. The order text takes precedence over the geographical boundaries shown in this layer, if in doubt please contact the dataset custodian.
