Georgia serious about resolving water wars

Georgia is serious about mediating the end of the 25-year-long water war with Florida, says Brad Currey, the dean of metro Atlanta’s public and nonprofit efforts to resolve the dispute.

Currey, a board member for the Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District, said Tuesday that Georgia is heeding the advice of the so-called special master, appointed by the U.S. Supreme Court, to resolve the latest lawsuit over ways to share water from the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers with Florida.
