Staff Analysis of the Legislation

Substituting for SB 36 from the last legislative session, this resolution encourages the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) to "review" regulations and issue a report to the Board of Natural Resources on aquifer storage and recovery to make sure that they adequately protect and preserve the state's aquifers.  SB 36 had required EPD to adopt additional regulations to protect the Floridan aquifer under aquifer storage and recovery projects.
