Welcome to REROC

The Riverina Eastern Regional Organisation of Councils (REROC) is a voluntary association of seven General Purpose Councils and one Water County Council located in the eastern Riverina region of NSW.

The members of REROC are the councils of: Bland, Coolamon, Cootamundra-Gundagai, Greater Hume, Junee, Lockhart, Temora and Goldenfields Water.

REROC covers an area in excess of 28,447 sq. kms and a population of approximately 48,260. The voluntary aspect of the Organisation encompasses every project that it undertakes. Members only participate in a REROC project if they believe it will generate positive outcomes for their council.

Local governance is never sacrificed to achieve efficiencies, member councils are not pressured to participate in a project, it is never a case of "one in - all in". The members are committed to this stance and believe it is one of the reasons the Organisation has been so successful over a long period of time. REROC members are committed to supporting the voluntary nature of the Organisation and believe that it is one of its greatest strengths.

REROC WINS TIDY TOWNS AWARD

Riverina Eastern Regional Organisation of Councils (REROC) was announced as the winner in the Circular Economy Category of the 2025 Tidy Towns Sustainability Awards at a gala function in Parkes on Saturday evening 11 October 2025.

The award was for REROC’s project, Circular Organics in the Eastern Riverina, and was accepted on the gala night by REROC’s Circular Economy Project Officer - Peter Dale.

The project is funded under the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Bin Trim Program and is an initiative of the NSW EPA under the NSW Government’s Waste and Sustainable Materials Strategy and is funded from the waste levy.

The Project commenced in January 2024 and the award was based on successful project delivery and outcomes in 4 Local Government areas, being: Lockhart, Junee, Coolamon and Gundagai.

The project seeks to encourage businesses that generate an organic (food) waste stream to divert any deposits from red lid general waste bins to green lid FOGO bins at the source. The deposit of organic waste into green waste deposits at councils’ processing locations contributes greatly to a better compost result which can then be used on councils’ public grounds including parks and gardens, sporting fields, and more, thus creating a circular outcome.
