Smoke control areas
Some parts of Allerdale are smoke control areas which mean you cannot emit smoke from a chimney unless you are using an authorised fuel or using 'exempt' appliances. You must not buy an unauthorised fuel for use in a smoke control area, unless it is to be used in an exempt appliance. You can find out more about smoke control areas on the GOV.UK website.
If you think there is an issue with smoke in these areas, you can report it to us.
