GMW’s Loch Garry Customer Committee represents our Loch Garry flood protection customers.
Members of our Loch Garry Customer Committee will be able to raise issues and opportunities and have input into a range of initiatives such as:
- scenario planning for GMW’s drought and climate action responses
- asset management and maintenance profiling
- considering research into the future of water availability
- improvements to GMW’s services and customer experience, and
- progressing the Loch Garry Future Service Strategy.
The Loch Garry Customer Committee will meet at least once a year, as well as attending an annual summit.
