#OpSnoopy Plain-clothed and uniformed officers, from across the Enforcement Service, are engaged in Operation Snoopy this week. Please make sure to pick up your dog's faeces & keep your dogs on leads where required. If caught offending you could receive a £100 FPN. @southwalespolice.bsky.social

Two further commercial bins have been seized from the Island Road area of #Barry today, after the business to which they belong has repeatedly defied a S.47 Notice to place the bins outside of their premises. Not only does this obstruct pedestrians, it encourages flytipping.

🎄 This Christmas, don't let your festive clean-up lead to illegal fly-tipping! Always check your waste carrier is licensed before handing over your rubbish. Protect your community and avoid fines. Verify here: naturalresources.wales/permits-and-... #ResponsibleDisposal #NoFlyTipping

Bags of household waste should not be disposed of in public waste bins. Sadly, this is becoming a regular problem, as is our Cleansing Colleagues coming across used and uncapped needles in those bins. Public waste bins are for pocket litter only.

Two #Barry residents have today each been issued with a £300 FPN for failing in their duty of care. Both also failed to engage with our Waste Crime officers and will now be prosecuted for obstruction offences under S.108 Environment Act 1995. #WasteCrime

Two #Barry residents have each been issued a Notice pursuant to S.46 Environmental Protection Act 1990, after they repeatedly continued to present excess waste for collection, despite the efforts of our Recycling Officers to work with them. (1/2)

A #Barry business owner has been convicted by Cardiff Magistrates Court following an investigation by our Waste Crime Unit. Lewis Slack pleaded guilty after being arrested on warrant by @southwalespolice.bsky.social. He was fined £100 and ordered to pay a £40 Victim Surcharge.

A number of suspects have now been identified in connection with this waste crime incident at Sully just over a fortnight ago. All will be PACE interviewed in due course. #wastecrime #ASB

Waste Crime Unit officers assisted by South Wales Police, DVSA Enforcement and Trading Standards, took part in the 4th part of #OpCerberus this week. Cerberus is our initiative to disrupt the activities of rogue waste carriers in the Vale.
