Okefenokee Swamp leaks into the Floridan Aquifer
Details
UGA Professors Jaivime Evaristo and Todd Rasmussen review two lines of evidence that the Okefenokee Swamp leaks through the underlying limestone into the Upper Floridan Aquifer and nearby water withdrawals draw more down.
Join this webinar to hear about their recent scientific paper on this subject. There will be time for your questions at the end. https://wwals.net/?p=69044
This paper is more incentive to pass Georgia House Bill 561 to protect the Okefenokee Swamp from mining, at least on its east side. Georgians, please ask your statehouse delegation to pass HB 561. Floridians, please ask your Georgia friends and relatives to do the same. Here’s how to contact Georgia Statehouse members:
