Georgia Denies Florida's Allegations in Water Wars Lawsuit
Tuesday, January 20th, 2015
Georgia denies that Florida’s Apalachicola region is “suffering serious harm” because of Georgia’s increasing storage and consumption of water from the Chattahoochee and Flint river basins, according to a document filed in the U.S. Supreme Court.
Georgia has filed its response to Florida’s petition to equally divide waters of the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint river basin, which includes Lake Lanier and also straddles part of Alabama.
