Drouin Sewerage Authority

Full description

Establishment
The Drouin Sewerage Authority was constituted under the provisions of the Sewerage Districts Act and gazetted 14 April 1965.

Water Reform
Under section 8 of the Water and Sewerage Authorities (Restructuring) Act 1983 (No. 9895) many Waterworks Trusts and Sewerage Authorities were abolished. Water Boards replaced Waterworks Trusts and Sewerage Authorities, or the functions were transferred to Municipalities. Further reforms in the 1990's led to the amalgamation of many of the Water Boards created after 1983.

Abolition
The Tarago Water Board [gazetted 7/11/1984], succeeded the Drouin Sewerage Authority. Other agencies involved in this amalgamation were the Drouin Waterworks Trust (VA 2084), Warragul Sewerage Authority (VA 2043), Warragul Waterworks Trust (VA 2172), Neerim South Waterworks Trust (VA 2142) and Noojee waterworks Trust (VA 2143).
