Residents in Coedpoeth and Minera allege that SOS Aggregates is dumping waste, including construction debris, in their villages. The company claims it is using recycled materials to create a horse training area, but local reports indicate numerous trucks are delivering waste daily, raising environmental concerns.
Natural Resources Wales has issued enforcement notices, and Wrexham Council has placed a temporary stop order due to unauthorized dumping. The situation has prompted fears among residents about pollution and the potential long-term impact on their communities.
Residents should monitor the response from Natural Resources Wales and Wrexham Council as they enforce removal of the waste. Watch for updates on SOS Aggregates' planning application and any legal actions that may arise, which could impact local environmental policies.
