ash raining down on Splott and Tremorfa under investigation by Natural Resources Wales"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There are two industrial facilities nearby that residents believe may be responsible for the ash &#8211; the Viridor incinerator and Celsa Steel plant<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Natural Resources Wales (NRW) has opened an investigation into the source of mystery ash raining down on parts of Cardiff after residents raised health concerns. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cardiffian reported last week that residents concerns have increased after they began sharing their experiences of ash coating their cars and bins.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After being made aware of our story Cardiff Council Leader Huw Thomas contacted the Council&#8217;s Shared Regulatory Service (SRS) and internal Air Quality team on Thursday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SRS confirmed it has received no complaints and the Air Quality team has not spotted any noticeable changes in the past few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Residents say it has been happening for years, so it is unlikely that there would be a noticeable change within this time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Councillor Thomas contacted the NRW Head of Operations for South Wales Central who then asked their Environmental Management team to investigate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A spokesperson for the NRW said: \u201cWe are investigating reports of ash deposits in the Splott and Tremorfa areas and are checking industrial sites that we regulate to try and find the source.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Viridor got in touch with <em>The Cardiffian <\/em>soon after the investigation began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Danielle Flanagan, a spokesperson from Viridor, said: \u201cTrident Park Energy Recovery Facility holds an environmental permit issued by Natural Resources Wales; upon receipt of your enquiry we have further demonstrated our compliance with the set parameters of the permit to the NRW.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jo Willis-Thompson, who lives on Mervyn Road, said: \u201cThis has been happening for years. I am a person who likes a window open even with the heating on, but this has become literally impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe steelworks causes pollution and I\u2019ve no doubt in my mind it\u2019s having a detrimental impact on residents&#8217; health in the area. Any item left outside \u2013 bins, cars, plants and even swimming pools in the summer are a magnet for the dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve lived here for 20 years and this has become progressively worse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kirsty Taher who lives on Greenbay Road, said: \u201cI get large amounts of dust that enter my home every day. It definitely comes from the steel works and is sometimes a yellow orange colour at times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For the safety of the public I would love it to be investigated.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another resident of Greenbay Road, who wished to remain anonymous, said: \u201cIt\u2019s hard to capture the ash on the ground but on vehicles, window sills etc. it is easier to see. I have to clean twice a week, it is like I\u2019m living on a polluted main road.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If anyone has any further information or would like to report any incidents then please call the NRW on 0300 065 3000 or report it online on their <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalresources.wales\/about-us\/contact-us\/report-an-environmental-incident\/?lang=en\">website<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FOLLOWING concerns about ash in Splott and Tremorfa, an investigation has been started by Natural Resources Wales (NRW) to look into the source.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":734,"featured_media":56276,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,3,79],"tags":[165,7406,1825,696],"coauthors":[7296],"class_list":["post-55884","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-featured","category-news","category-splott","tag-environment","tag-investigation","tag-mystery","tag-pollution"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 -
