watercourse

The company was ordered to pay more than £900,000 last month after polluting a watercourse with millions of litres of chlorinated water, causing the death of hundreds of fish.

According to the Environment Agency, electric bikes pose a pollution risk because the batteries contain substances that can enter a watercourse if they remain submerged in water.

The airport said in its email to Mr Thornley it was working with the EA, which was "now happy the issue had been resolved and there were no further impacts to the local watercourse".

She argued it "would be better spent on upgrading water treatment plants beside watercourse in Wales".

North Wales Fire and Rescue Service said it received numerous reports of flooding in the Flintshire and Wrexham areas and warned people to keep away from fast flowing watercourses.
