Municipal Water Supply Problems of Atlanta, Georgia
The water supply of the City of Atlanta, Ga., is of interest from several angles, as it is the largest development of a surface water supply in the Southeastern States, furnishes a water unusually free of dissolved solids and, therefore, peculiarly well suited for industrial uses, and contains, in addition, some unique features of design and operation. The supply is derived from the Chattahoochee River, a Cherokee Indian name meaning the “Chatter”, or ”Hooting of the Owl”. Its source is on the eastern slopes of the Blue Ridge Mountains, at elevations ranging from 3 000 to 4 000 ft., and it flows in a southwesterly direction, through a basin singularly free of pollution.
