February is Water Awareness Month!

Atlanta is one of the largest municipalities on one of the smallest watersheds in the nation. We are a region of droughts and floods, coupled with old sewer infrastructure and high water rates. Going forward, efforts to use water more consciously will require commitment from students, faculty, staff, visitors and others – and that commitment will make a difference locally for years to come.
