Water is being conserved in Georgia. From residents who have retrofitted their homes to industries that have updated manufacturing processes, many people in Georgia are acting upon the need to conserve water. There is still much room, however, for leadership and growth regarding this vital natural resource. We must strengthen water use accounting procedures at the state level and set goals regarding water use efficiency that have the buy-in of state and local leadership. The Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) requires water conservation plans. This process is key to showing efficiency results. Water conservation on the coast is crucial to protect the Floridan Aquifer from saltwater intrusion, and in the southwest portion of the State to protect the Flint River system. The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has hired a water conservation coordinator to initiate the Georgia DNR Water Conservation Program. One goal of this program is to implement a statewide water conservation plan. This paper discusses many topics, particularly planning, policy, and future direction. Includes reference, table, figures.
