A scheme to try to hold back floodwater is bidding for £800,000 to continue its work.
The Upper Conwy project aims to slow water from the uplands to cut flooding lower down the valley, in towns including Llanrwst.
It is the first time in Wales anyone has tried to tackle the problem by looking at an entire river catchment.
The project is a partnership between the National Trust, Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and landowners.
So far, it has involved blocking drainage ditches in blanket bog to make ground wetter so it will hold more water for longer.
