The regional water planning councils (Councils) represent regions in Georgia as designated in the water plan and adjusted by approved petition. Each Council consists of individuals appointed by the Governor, Lt. Governor, and Speaker of the House. The Metropolitan North Georgia Regional Water Planning District is a separate water planning entity that will participate in the planning process consistent with the State Water Plan and its enabling legislation.
Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) supports the regional water planning councils, by providing guidance as well as contractors who specialize in water resource planning and working with public stakeholder groups.
The operation of each council is defined in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the council, EPD, and the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA). These agreements establish how each council conducts its affairs including the procedures for decision-making.
