So I’ve told you before that we’re under a drought here in Georgia. Apparently, there’s less than 4 months supply of drinking water in the largest lake in the metro area which isn’t a good thing. Things have gotten to a point that the state is considering Drastic Measures the likes of which few Metro cities have ever seen.
Part of this stems from the Corps of Engineer’s releasing soooooo much water every day to benefit some fresh water mussel in Florida. If you ask me (and most atlantans) thats crap. They need to stop releasing the water and keep it here. There’s also a battle over the water from Lake Allatoona (which is right around the corner). A federal Judge in Alabama ordered the Corp to release so much water from that lake so that Alabama had water. Which again, is Crap.
Neal Boortz thinks that Governor Perdue should Take the GA national Guard in and take over Buford Dam on lake lanier and not let any more water out to Fla. I don’t know if he should go quite that far as that could be seen as an act of war but something does need to be done. We need to keep our water in Georgia, its not like Alabama is the garden of life is it?
