  "long_title": "Part I of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (“the Act”) provides for the control of pollution from certain processes prescribed under the Act. It also provides that the release of certain prescribed substances into the environment must be controlled. In Scotland the regulatory body for processes prescribed for central, rather than local authority, control is either the chief inspector of Her Majesty’s Industrial Pollution Inspectorate or the river purification authority. The main purpose of these Regulations is to prescribe the criteria for determining which is to be the enforcing authority under Part I of the Act in any particular case.",
