Deal wants to increase water capacity

Gov. Nathan Deal noted in his State of the State address that Georgia"s population grew 18.3 percent during the past decade.

"That growth, combined with recent droughts, has Georgians focused on water availability more than at any point in our state"s history,” Deal said to state lawmakers.

Deal proposed in his speech that the state spend $35 million on water and sewer infrastructure.

For that, we rate this as a promise In The Works.
