This month we celebrated the 30th anniversary of the creation of the GVIA following a motion from July 1995 proposing to bring
the irrigation associations of Biniguy / Moree Water Users' Association, Carole/Gill Gill Water Users' Association, Copeton / Biniguy Spray
Irrigators' Association, Gwydir Co-operative Ltd and the Mehi / Moomin Water Users' Association together to form the Gwydir Valley
Irrigators Association. The intention was to "employ and take any necessary action to promote the interests of the irrigators in the
Gwydir Valley."
