Culture of Conservation Approved!!

        A new Georgia State Bill recently passed to promote even more water conservation in the State of Georgia It also sends a message to our neighbooring states of Florida and Alabama who share our water resource that Georgia is doing all that it should to be a good steward and taking care of our natural resources.
      The bill passed almost unanimously with the State Senate at 52-0 and the house with 166-5.  Some of the major points of the bill will allow watering outdoors between the hours of 4.pm. and 10 a.m.  Even more importantly this bill requires that builders constructing new homes and buildings. have to use more efficient water fixtures, such as aerated bathroom faucets and low-flow toilets. 
     Governor Sunny Perdue says "I will sign the bill as soon as it lands on his desk."  Perdue is also negotiating an agreement, for water-sharing of the  Chattahoochee river which feeds Lake Lanier, with our neighboring states, Florida and Alabama, who depend on the natural resource as well.
