    CARRATHOOL SHIRE COUNCIL SUBMISSION TO THE STANDING COMMITTEE ON REGIONAL AUSTRALIA INQUIRY INTO THE IMPACT OF THE MURRAY DARLING BASIN PLAN IN REGIONAL AUSTRALIA Submission Number: 161 Date Received:03/12/2010 Carrathool Shire Carrathool Shire is a large rural Shire having an area of 19,000 sq. kms and five urban centres including the town of Hillston and the villages of Goolgowi (Council headquarters), Merriwagga, Carrathool and Rankins Springs. It is traversed by the Murrumbidgee and Lachlan Rivers as well as the Mid Western Highway and the Kidman Way. Willandra, Cocoparra and Nombinnie National Parks are also a feature of the area. All villages except Merriwagga are serviced by public schools with Hillston providing a Convent School and a Central School to year 12. Secondary education is also provided at the city of Griffith 50 kms in distance from Goolgowi. The Shire is serviced by hospital and medical services in Hillston and Griffith. Hillston also boasts a well stocked library. The town and villages feature excellent recreation facilities which have been established with a great deal of community effort and pride. Hillston and Goolgowi have 25 metre swimming pools (solar heated) which operate for 22 weeks of the year. Modern playground equipment is provided for each township and village. Whilst still predominantly an agricultural based shire, we have diversified greatly from small dryland cereal growing and large grazing pursuits to irrigation crops such as cotton, walnuts, olives, rice, corn, cherries, vegetables, potatoes, citrus, and intensive feed lotting. The effects of the drought, continuing water restrictions, and water buyback program have impacted heavily on the shire community as evidenced by the decline in population from 3,300 at the 2001 census to 3,000 persons currently resident in the Shire.
