Alabama adds to 17-year-old water lawsuit

Posted by Associated Press October 18, 2007 12:49 PM
The state of Alabama has added new complaints about the Atlanta area's water usage and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to its 17-year-old lawsuit over shared water resources.

The state has filed papers in Birmingham challenging the government's decision to hold more water in Georgia's Lake Allatoona, which serves the Atlanta metro area.

Alabama officials also contend the Atlanta metro area is being allowed to use more water than it is supposed to receive.

Neither the state of Georgia nor the Army Corps has responded to the new claims, which come in a lawsuit filed in 1990 over water sharing between Alabama, Florida and Georgia.
