In 2022, the Central Region Sustainable Water Strategy was replaced by the Central and Gippsland Region Sustainable Water Strategy.

The Central Region comprises the area south of the Great Dividing Range that includes the West Gippsland, Central Highlands, Barwon, Port Phillip and Westernport regions, and the urban centres of Geelong, Ballarat, Greater Melbourne, Melton, Sunbury, Warragul and Traralgon.

The Central Region Sustainable Water Strategy included a series of actions and augmentations to meet the region's water needs from 2006-2055.

The strategy included policy statements and 112 actions for implementation at a regional and local scale.
