Ms Tarrant joins Tallygaroopna dairy farmer Natalie Akers and Greater Bendigo resident Andrew Cooney on the board of Victoria’s largest rural water corporation.
They were among 125 board members appointed by Minister for Water Harriet Shing to Victoria’s 18 water corporations, nine catchment management authorities and the Victorian Environmental Water Holder on September 12.
They join current board members Diane James AM (chair), Patrick McNamara AM, David McKenzie, and returning board members Jonathan Koop and Kris Peach AM.
Ms James welcomed the new members and thanked outgoing directors — Margot Henty, Marg O’Rourke, Dennis Quinn and Alana Johnson AM.
“We thank Margot, Marg, Dennis and Alana for their contribution during their time at Goulburn-Murray Water,” Ms James said.
“We look forward to Natalie, Andrew and Larna joining the board and sharing their knowledge of the region, insights and skills as we continue to address challenges such as climate change and flood recovery.”
Ms Tarrant spent nine years on the board of Echuca Regional Health, including a period as board chair which finished earlier this year when she was replaced by Stacy Williams.
