DRAINAGE rates for Conwy residents involved in the Tan Lan embankment works have been annulled by 100 per cent.
Natural Resources Wales (NRW) agreed to the full annulment for residents in the Conwy Internal Drainage District, which receives low-level flood protection to nearby homes and caravans, agricultural land and the A470 trunk road.
It follows a viability study into the works by NRW after the Tan Lan embankment was breached during Storm Ciara last year.
There have been at least 10 breaches to the embankment since the 1960s.
A petition was launched against the drainage rates along with Aberconwy MS Janet Finch-Saunders after local landowners repaired the embankment due to NRW maintenance work being halted during its viability study.
