The water corporation manages land near rivers, lakes and dams across a region that spans much of northern Victoria.
G-MW permissions are required for any landscaping, vegetation management and construction and repairs of structures such as jetties and boat ramps that take place on G-MW land.
G-MW Business and Finance general manager Michael Gomez said the permit was important for ensuring safety and fairness.
“Our lakes, dams and reservoirs not only store water for our customers but provide some great recreational opportunities for communities and visitors,” Mr Gomez said.
“The approvals process we have helps ensure any works on G-MW land are safe and do not impact other users’ safety or enjoyment of the storage.
“It also helps safeguard from works that might cause erosion or impact water quality.”
Some works may also need approval from the relevant councils or catchment management authority, depending on their location.
