🚨 Breach of duty of care for householders 🚨

Householders have a legal responsibility (duty of care) under Section 34(2A) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. This requires all householders to take reasonable steps to ensure that any waste produced on their property is only transferred to authorised individuals or facilities for disposal.

• Defendant: James Andrew Lang of Pontllanfraith
• Details of the offence: On or around 2 January 2024, Mr Lang failed to ensure that household waste generated at his residence was disposed of appropriately and responsibly. The waste was subsequently discovered fly-tipped at Fairview, Blackwood.
• Court outcome: The case was heard at Cwmbran Magistrates’ Court on 12 February 2026. Mr Lang pleaded guilty and was ordered to pay:
• A fine of £120
• Prosecution costs of £200
• A victim surcharge of £48
Total financial penalty: £368

⚖️ This marks another successful prosecution by Caerphilly Council Enforcement Officers in their ongoing efforts to tackle fly-tipping and protect our communities.

If you are disposing of household waste, always ensure you check your Waste Carrier is Licensed and ask for a waste transfer note or receipt as proof.

🚨 Torri dyletswydd gofal deiliaid tai 🚨

Mae gan ddeiliaid tai gyfrifoldeb cyfreithiol (dyletswydd gofal) o dan Adran 34(2A) o Ddeddf Diogelu'r Amgylchedd 1990. Mae hyn yn ei gwneud hi'n ofynnol i bob deiliad tŷ gymryd camau rhesymol i sicrhau bod unrhyw wastraff sy'n cael ei gynhyrchu ar eu heiddo nhw'n cael ei drosglwyddo i unigolion neu gyfleusterau awdurdodedig yn unig ar gyfer ei waredu.

• Diffynnydd: James Andrew Lang o Bontllan-fraith
• Manylion y drosedd: Ar neu oddeutu 2 Ionawr 2024, methodd Mr Lang â sicrhau bod gwastraff cartref a gafodd ei gynhyrchu yn ei eiddo yn cael ei waredu'n briodol ac yn gyfrifol. Wedyn, cafodd y gwastraff ei ddarganfod yn Fairview, Coed Duon.
• Canlyniad y llys: Gwrandawyd ar yr achos ar 12 Chwefror 2026 yn Llys Ynadon Cwmbrân. Plediodd Mr Lang yn euog a chafodd gorchymyn i dalu:
• Dirwy o £120
• Costau erlyn o £200
• Gordal dioddefwr o £48
Cyfanswm y gosb ariannol: £368

⚖️ Mae hyn yn erlyniad llwyddiannus arall gan Swyddogion Gorfodi Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili yn eu hymdrechion parhaus i fynd i'r afael â thipio anghyfreithlon a diogelu ein cymunedau.

Os ydych chi'n cael gwared ar wastraff cartref, gwnewch yn siŵr eich bod chi bob amser yn gwirio bod eich Cludwr Gwastraff wedi'i drwyddedu a gofyn am nodyn trosglwyddo gwastraff neu dderbynneb fel prawf.
