A white paper that discusses one of the state's most pressing water resource
issues: meeting water supply needs for now and for the future. Directed
at Georgia's water supply decision makers and stakeholders in that process,
the paper provides an overview of the number of reservoirs in the state,
reservoir impacts on services provided by free-flowing streams and rivers,
and water supply
planning approaches that can meet future water needs while minimizing
those impacts.
