    Appeal dismissed because uncontested documentary and sample evidence proved breach of the permit conditions (use of fuel with sulphur content above the 0.5% limit and initial noncompliant chimney height), the appellant failed to remediate despite warnings and ample time, modification to use compliant fuel was feasible and short-term, and the Authority lawfully exercised its powers under section 30; stay refused and no costs awarded pursuant to section 33(6).
