Category R, A and B Disused Coal Tips in Wales

Welsh Government

This dataset shows the locations and boundaries of disused coal tips that have been assigned a rating of R, A or B using an interim category system. R, A or B rated tips reflect tips with the unlikely potential to impact public safety and are inspected  less frequently than C or D rated tips. This dataset will be subject to accuracy improvements and should be considered a working version that will change over time. None of the interim category ratings given suggest that a tip is at imminent risk.

This dataset is part of a programme of work to review and improve coal tip safety in Wales being delivered by Welsh Government and its partners.

Legend

   B - a tip with the unlikely potential to impact public safety
   A - a tip with the very unlikely potential to impact public safety
   R - a tip with the very unlikely potential to impact public safety. Potentially levelled and built over
