Established pursuant to the Water Act 1989 (VIC), Goulburn–Murray Water manages bulk water supplies to local government–owned water utilities, provides flood mitigation services, and manages the health of the Goulburn and Murray rivers catchment in northern Victoria. Goulburn–Murray Water also provides irrigation services to about 68,000 square kilometres (26,000 sq mi) stretching from the Great Dividing Range to the south, the Murray River to the north and stretching from Corryong in the east to Nyah.[1]
Goulburn–Murray Water is managed by a managing director who reports to a Board of Management that are ultimately responsible to the Minister for Water, presently Harriet Shing. The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning provides administrative oversight of the statutory authority.
In 2011 it was reported that Goulburn–Murray Water had an operating shortfall of A$80 million in its budget.[2]
