Mae'n bwysig i aelodau'r cyhoedd wybod bod diogelu ein cymunedau yn parhau i fod yn flaenoriaeth ac rydym yn cymryd camau i liniaru cymaint o risgiau â phosibl.  Dechreuodd y cylch nesaf o arolygiadau gaeaf ar y tomenni risg uwch yr wythnos diwethaf a bydd yn parhau drwy fisoedd y gaeaf, gan nodi unrhyw waith cynnal a chadw a gwaith brys fel rhan o'r broses. Mae categoreiddio risg dros dro ar waith i sicrhau cysondeb â'r dull o gategoreiddio ledled Cymru.  Mae'r categoreiddio risg dros dro yn cydnabod bod potensial i achosi risg i ddiogelwch, yn hytrach na bod bygythiad ar fin digwydd neu ar unwaith, gydag arolygiadau amlach wedi'u trefnu ar y tomenni a raddiwyd yn risg uwch. Rydym yn ariannu'r Awdurdod Glo i gynnal yr arolygiadau ar y cyd ag awdurdodau lleol, gan ddarparu dull cyson o ymdrin â'r drefn arolygu bresennol.
It is important for members of the public to know the safeguarding of our communities remains a priority and we are taking action to mitigate as many risks as possible.  The next round of winter inspections on the higher risk tips commenced last week and will continue through the winter months, identifying any maintenance and urgent works as part of the process. An interim risk categorisation is in place to ensure consistency with the approach to categorisation across Wales.  The interim risk categorisation recognises there is the potential to cause risk to safety, rather than there being an imminent or immediate threat, with more frequent inspections scheduled on the higher-risk rated tips. We are funding the Coal Authority to carry out the inspections jointly with local authorities, providing a consistent approach to the current inspection regime.
