The Environmental Protection Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources released a Water Conservation Implementation Plan for Georgia Businesses on May 27, 2009. The plan is intended to guide Georgia's seven major water use sectors in an effort to help sustain the state's water resources, to provide for a secure water supply in the future, to help Georgians use water more efficiently, and to foster a culture of conservation throughout the state. http://www.georgiaepd.org/Files_PDF/news/WCIP%20release%20-%20FINAL%20lhead.pdf.
