(This note is not part of the Order)
Article 3 of the Environmental Protection (Authorisation of Processes) (Determina-� tion Periods) Order 1991 generally extends the period laid down in the Environmental Protection Act 1990 for enforcing authorities to determine applications under Part I of that Act for authorisations to carry on processes prescribed for local control.
This Order amends that article by specifying a period of nine months in respect of processes, other than small waste oil burners, to which the transitional provisions in paragraphs 5 to 7 of Schedule 6 to the Environmental Protection (Prescribed Processes and Substances Etc.) (Amendment) Regulations 1994 (as substituted by the Environ-� mental Protection (Prescribed Processes and Substances Etc.) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 1994) apply. These are processes which, by virtue of regulation 4 of those Regulations, become processes prescribed for local control on 1st December 1994.
S.I. 1991/513.
