Residents
drawing water from wells are not under the EPD watering
ban.
That's the
latest word from the state after a confusing press
release late week. Coweta County Administrator Theron Gay
told the county commissioners last week the ban did apply
to wells.
But later
in the week, Gay recanted the statement and said the ban
does not apply to wells.
The EPD
does not have a way to monitor well usage, so the ban
would be tough to enforce.
The EPD
made the ban stricter this week by telling residents in
the Atlanta region that outdoor watering could only occur
on an odd-even basis, based on your home's address.
Residents
are still encouraged to use the minimum amount of water
until the drought eases.
