Drought!

Last year in Georgia, droughts hit record levels in some counties. Georgia pumps 10 million gallon of waste into wetlands every day, and by 2010, they want to up that amount to 24 million gallons. Fortunately, these last two months or so have been filled with thunderstorms and that added a lot of water to their reservoirs.
