G-MW has three Goulburn-Murray Irrigation Network customer committees made up of members from the east (Murray Valley, Shepparton), west (Torrumbarry, Loddon Valley) and central (Central Goulburn, Rochester) irrigation areas.

Among them is Craig Reynolds, who is a member of the east committee.

Mr Reynolds is a seasoned cropping farmer and has a long-standing connection to customer representation through his previous role as a G-MW Water Services Committee chair.

Based in Congupna, Mr Reynolds is also actively involved in the Irrigation Farmer Network.

Dianne Bowles brings 18 years of experience as an irrigator and dairy farmer in Mead to her role as a member of the west committee.

She also has a strong interest in agricultural and environmental water use and how organisations work with their customers and communities.

Meanwhile, Peter Hacon brings more than 48 years’ experience in irrigated farming and water leadership to his role as a member of the central committee.

This includes 17 years as a past Water Services Committee chair.

Based in Tongala, he runs a farming business focused on grazing sheep and cattle.
