Drouin Waterworks Trust

Full description

Establishment
The Drouin Waterworks Trust was constituted under the provisions of the Water Act and gazetted 2 October 1935.

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, VA 2671 [gazetted 7/11/1984], succeeded the Drouin Waterworks Trust. Other agencies involved in this amalgamation were the Warragul Waterworks Trust (VA 2172), Warragul Sewerage Authority (VA 2043), Drouin Sewerage Authority (VA 1975), Neerim South Waterworks Trust (VA 2142) and Noojee waterworks Trust (VA 2143).
