EPD taking comments on Roswell well permit

The Georgia Environmental Protection Division is taking comments through Feb. 4 on its plan to issue Roswell a new groundwater withdrawal permit.

The city drilled wells that could supply the city with 400,000 more gallons of water per day. Roswell needs the state permit to tap this surplus.

Comments should be sent to Bill Frechette by writing to 4220 International Parkway, Suite 101, Atlanta, Ga. 30354; calling 404-675-1680 or faxing 404-675-6244.
