Description

In response to one of its mandates under the Georgia Water Supply Act of 2008 (O.C.G.A.) 12-5-470 (the Act), the
Georgia Environmental Facilities Authority (GEFA) engaged the MACTEC Team to inventory and survey feasible
sites for multi-jurisdictional drinking water supply reservoirs in Georgia. This report presents the work-in-progress
results of that initial work with recommendations and a “road map” for future reservoir siting analysis in Georgia. The
report is intended to provide information and preliminary analysis that can support decisions by local governments
and Regional Planning Councils on how best to augment local water supply. The study should complement the
analyses conducted under the State Water Plan.
