Fanning1 ABSTRACT During 2000, water use in Georgia was estimated for each county by category using data obtained from various Federal and State agencies and local sources. Categories of offstream water use include public supply, domestic, commercial, industrial, mining, irrigation, livestock, and thermoelectric power; the only category of estimated instream use is hydroelectric-power generation. Total offstream water use from ground- and surfacewater sources was estimated to be about 6,487 million gallons per day (MgaVd) during 2000. Thermoelectric power was the largest water use during 2000 with surfacewater withdrawals of 3,310 MgaVd. Instream water use for hydroelectric plants in the State was estimated to be 31,890 MgaVd. Withdrawal for irrigation was mostly from ground-water sources, and withdrawal for public supply was mostly from surface-water sources. During 1980, water use in Georgia was estimated to be 6,725 MgaVd, which was withdrawn from ground- and surface-water sources in Georgia. Since 1980, water-use estimates for the State have been compiled and published at 5-year intervals by the Georgia Water-Use Program. State-wide, water use reached an all-time high of 6,725 MgaVd during 1980. By 1990, water use had decreased by 20 percent to 5,353 MgaVd, followed by an increase to 6,487 MgaVd during 2000. During 1980-2000 thermoelectric-power has been consistently the largest water use in Georgia. Publicsupply use steadily increased during the last 20 years, concurrent with the State's increasing population. Conversely, industrial water use decreased during the same period. Water withdrawal for irrigation during 19802000 followed changes in hydrologic conditions, increasing during drier years and decreasing during wetter years. Withdrawal for all other categories of use {domestic, commercial, and livestock) remained about the same during 1980-2000. INTRODUCTION Water managers have the problem of managing and providing adequate water supplies to their users. By examining historical water-use patterns and current wateruse practices, water managers can make more realistic projections. Water-use trends in Georgia can provide a basis for estimating future water needs in the State. The U.S . Geological Survey (USGS) and the Georgia Department ofNatural Resources (GaDNR), Environmental Protection Division (GaEPD), Georgia Geologic Survey (GGS) entered into a joint cooperative agreement during 1979 to develop the Georgia Water-Use Program (GWUP) (Fanning, 1985). This ongoing program focuses on collecting, compiling, and disseminating water-use information for the State. These data are stored in a central database known as the Georgia Water-Use Data System (GWUDS), which is maintained by the USGS. This is the sixth in a series of reports describing water use throughout Georgia. Previous county-based water-use reports published by the Georgia Water-Use Program include for 1980 (Pierce and Barber, 1982), for 1985 (Turlington and others, 1987), for 1987 (Trent and others, 1990), for 1990 (Fanning and others, 1992), and for 1995 (Fanning, 1997). Purpose and Scope This report presents water-use estimates in Georgia for selected water-use categories during 2000 and describes water-use trends during the period 1980-2000. Water-use estimates are subdivided by county, major river basin, and principal aquifer. Data are presented in tabular form, together with maps showing locations of major water users during 2000, and graphs showing 20-year water-use trends. I. Hydrologist. U.S. Geological Survey, Atlanta, Georgia Data Collection and Presentation Water-use data presented in this report were obtained from GaEPD data files and a variety of Federal, State, and local sources and compiled by the Georgia Water-Use Program (table I). Data were derived from either permitted or nonpermitted users. Georgia law requires any city, industry, or other water user that withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day (gal/d) to obtain a withdrawal permit and to report monthly withdrawals to the GaEPD each year. Most of the data in this report are from permitted users; these data are stored in GWUDS. Power-plant managers supplied data for instream hydroelectric-power generation. Water-use estimates for nonpermitted use were determined using other water sources and various estimation techniques. The Georgia Cooperative Extension Service (CES) provided irrigation estimates, which were compiled from a biannual irrigation survey ofpermitted agricultural users (Kerry Harrison, CES, written commun., Tifton, Ga., 2000). Livestock and domestic estimates were calculated using animal-census data and an estimate ofper capita water use, respectively. WATER USE IN GEORGIA, 2000 Water-use data are subdivided according to offstream and instream use. Offstrearn use is defined as water withdrawn or diverted from a ground- or surface-water source, and transported to the place of use. Offstream wateruse categories include public supply, domestic, commercial, industrial, mining, irrigation, livestock, and thermoelectric power. An estimated 6,487 million gallons of water per day (Mgal/d) were withdrawn for offstream uses throughout Georgia during 2000 (fig. 1). An estimated 5,037 Mgal!d were withdrawn from surface-water sources (79 percent), and of that, 68 percent was for thermoelectric-power generation (fig. 2). Ground-water withdrawals (table 2) were estimated to be I,450 Mgal/d, mostly for irrigation (nearly 50 percent) and industrial uses (nearly 21 percent). The greatest offstream use (60 Mgal/d or greater) occurred in counties in which thermoelectric power plants are located. Exceptions include . DeKalb, Fulton, and Gwinnett Counties, located in the Metropolitan Atlanta area, in which large amounts of water are withdrawn for public supply; and Glynn, Early, and Wayne Counties, in which large amounts of water are withdrawn for industrial use. Instrearn use is that which occurs within a stream channel for such purposes as hydroelectric power generation, navigation, water-quality improvement, fish propagation, and recreation (Solley and others, 1998). In Georgia, the only instream use compiled is hydroelectric power generation. During 2000, an estimated 31,890 Mgal/d was used instream to generate hydroelectric power. The total statewide water withdrawals for 2000 by ground- and surface-water sources for the categories ofusepublic supply, domestic and commercial, industrial and mining, irrigation, livestock, thermoelectric power- are shown in table 2. Industrial water use by major Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes (Executive Office ofthe President, Office of Management and Budget, 1987) (Appendix A) and by ground- and surface-water sources is listed in table 3. Surface-water withdrawal estimates by major river basin (fig. 3) are listed in table 4; and groundwater withdrawals by principal aquifer in the State (fig. 4) are listed in table 5. Water-use trends, by source, from 1980 to 2000 are shown in figure 5. Water-use totals, by category, for each county are listed in table 6. Ground- and surface-water withdrawals, for each county by category, major publicsupply system, industrial use by SIC code, trend graphs, and user locations are listed in Appendix B. Small public-water suppliers (subdivisions, mobile home parks, and small towns) and military bases are not listed individually in Appendix B, but the withdrawal for each is included in the county totals. For additional water-use data, please contact the U.S. Geological Survey, Georgia Water-Use Program, Peachtree Business Center, 3039 Amwiler Road, Suite 130,Atlanta, GA 30360-2824. Public Supply Public-supply water use is water that is withdrawn by public and private water suppliers and delivered for a variety of uses, including domestic, commercial, and industrial. Small communities and subdivisions are considered to be public-supply systems ifat least 25 people are served, or ifat least 15 hookups or water connections are used. GaEPD Water Resources Management Program provided most data for public-supply water use. City managers and operators provided additional information (table 1). During 2000, as in previous years, the Georgia Water-Use Program conducted a survey of the largest public watersupply users in the State. Data were obtained on the population served, the number ofconnections for each system, and all wholesale customers. The public suppliers surveyed during 2000 accounted for about 90 percent of total publicsupply use in the State. Estimated public-supply use during 2000 was I ,246 Mgal/d, of which surface-water withdrawal accounted for about 78 percent (968 Mgal/d) and ground-water withdrawal accounted for about 22 percent (278 Mgal/d). The largest public suppliers are located in counties in the Metropolitan Atlanta area in northern Georgia. In this area, population is greatest and surface water is the principal water source. 2 Table 1. Water-use data sources in Georgia, 2000 [GaEPD, Georgia Environmental Protaction Division; WRMP.

In Georgia, public suppliers provide most of the domestic water; however, some households, generally in rural areas, are supplied by individual water systems such as wells- these are termed self-supplied domestic water users. Withdrawal by selfsupplied domestic users was estimated by subtracting estimates of the number of persons served by public-supply systems from the total county population (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 200 I). Statewide, an estimated 18 percent of the population obtains water from self-supplied domestic sources, which are assumed to he derived from ground water (wells and springs). Because self-supplied domestic water use is generally not metered, GWUP conducted a survey during 1983 in the Athens, Ga., area to estimate per capita usage. The survey concluded that on average each person uses 75 gal/d. This estimate was multiplied by the selfsupplied population to obtain a self-supplied domestic water use during 2000 of about II 0 Mgalld. Commercial users include restaurants, hotels, retail stores, and other businesses; government and military facilities; prisons, schools, hospitals, office parks, and other institutions; and recreational facilities. In Georgia, there are very few commercial users large enough to require a GaEPD permit, so permitted commercial water-use data are minimal. However, these data, combined with estimates for smaller users, were compiled and estimated to he about 32 Mgalld during 2000. Industrial and Mining Industrial water use includes fabrication, processing, washing, and cooling for facilities that manufacture products, including steel, chemical and allied products, paper and allied paper products, mining, and petroleum refining. The largest industrial water users in Georgia are pulp and paper mills (concentrated along the coast), textile industries (concentrated in nonhwestem Georgia), chemical manufacturers, and mining and mineral industries. Self-supplied industries in Georgia used approximately 652 Mgal/d of water during 2000. Nearly all of the industrial water-use information was compiled from withdrawals reported to the GaEPD by permitted systems for 2000. Mining water use is water used for the extraction of minerals including water used for quarrying, ntilling, and other typical preparations at a mine site. Granite, clay, marble, and other materials are mined extensively in the State, but the mining operations do not require large quantities of water. In Georgia, mining use is only reported for mine dewatering. Mining water-use data were obtained from GaEPD permits, reports by mining companies, and estimates based on average water requirements for each ton mined. During 2000, estimated mining withdrawal was about I0 Mgal/d. EXPLANATION WITHDRAWALS, IN MILLION GALLONS PER DAY D Oto5 Osto!O 10to20 20to60 60!0 1,000 Figure 1.

Estimates of irrigation water use are based on a 2000 irrigation survey conducted by the University of Georgia, Cooperative Exten sion Service (Kerry Harrison, CES, written commun., Tifton, Ga., 2000). County extension agents were asked to provide data on crop acreage, application rates by crop for each county, and percentages of ground- and surface-water use. Results of the irrigation survey indicate that water use since 1995 has grown appreciably in some counties. Estimated irrigation water use in 2000 was I ,092 Mgal/d (table 2), an increase of about 41 percent over the 1995 estimate of 774 Mgal/d (Fanning, 1997). This increase probably results from increased irrigation during drought conditions in Georgia during 2000. Most irrigation occurs in the Coastal Plain physiographic province, with the largest withdrawal in the southwestern part of the State. There, irrigation withdrawal accounts for more that 95 percent of total water use in some counties. Ground water is used more for irrigation than for any other use. Lives.t.....-. ~ Livestock water use is water used for livestock watering, feedlots, dairy operation, catfish farms, and farm operation for poultry, horses, cattle, and hogs. Estimates of water use for livestock were compiled by animal type (cattle, hogs, horses, and several kinds of poultry) and by pond acreage for catfish farming. Estimated water use by animal type was calculated by multiplying these animal populations in each county by the average water requirement for each animal (cattle, 8 galld; hogs, 2.5 galld; horses, 15 gal/d; and poultry, 0.06 galld to 0.22 gal/d). Water use for catfish farming was calculated using data obtained from a survey of pond depths and acreage conducted by Lewis (1984). Pond acreage in each county was multiplied by an average pond depth of2.68 feet to obtain tolal volume. The 2000 estimate for horses was determined using data obtained from a survey conducted by Pullin (1970). Using these data, livestock water use in 2000 was estimated to be about 35 Mgalld (table 2). Thermoelectric-Power Generation Thermoelectric-power water use is water used in the generation of thermoelectric power- most is used for cooling purposes. Thermoelectric-power water use includes 17 plants that operate on fossil fuels (such as oil, coal, or natural gas) and 2 nuclear-powered plants. Data were obtained from the GaEPD Water Resource Management Program; it collects data on the amounts of water treated for potable use and for boiler make-up. Also, plant operators were contacted directly for additional information on cooling water and other water uses at each power plant. From these data thermoelectric-power water use was estimated to be 3,310 Mgal/d during 2000 (table 2). The percentage of water consumed and not returned to the source ranges from less than I percent to about I00 percent for thermoelectric-power plants (Fanning and others, 1991 ). Hydroelectric-Power Generation Hydroelectric-power water use is the largest water-use category in Georgia, with an estimated 31,890 Mgal/d used during 2000 (table 2). Hydroelectric-power water use is instream water used for the generation ofelectricity at plants where turbine generators are driven by falling water. Data on the number of gallons used by each plant to generate one megawatt-hour of electricity was obrained from plant operators, and multiplied by the monthly power generation to estimate the water used at each plant during 2000. 0 20 40 60 KILOMETERS Figure 3.

WATER-USE IN GEORGIA, 1980-2000 Since 1980, the Georgia Water-Use Program has compiled and published statewide water-use estimates by category at 5-year intervals. National water-use compila tions began during 1950. However, during the period 1950-2000, water-use estimates were not always comparable. Category definition and estimation techniques have been the most consistent since 1980 due to efforts of the National Water-Use Information Program (NWUIP). In Georgia duringl980, total water use was estimated to be 6,725 Mgalld (Pierce and Barber, 1982). By 1990, water use had declined about20 percent to 5,353 Mgal/d. Since 1990, however, statewide water use increased, and during 2000 it was 6,487 Mgalld (table 2) (fig. 5). Statewide public-supply water use has increased steadily since 1980, corresponding to an increase in statewide population during the same period. Commercial, domestic, and livestock uses remained about the same for the period 1980- 2000. Industrial water use fluctuated during 1980- 2000, mostly because of improved water efficiency, water recycling, and conservation measures at industrial plants. Decreased industrial water use in Glynn and Camden Counties was largely because of chemical and paper plant closings, and more efficient water-use practices at remaining plants. Irrigation water use declined from 1980 through 1990, and increased from 1995 through 2000. Estimated irrigation withdrawal was nearly 35 percent larger for 2000 than for 1995. This increase is largely because ofincreased irrigation demands resulting from the prolonged drought that began during 1998 (GaDNR, 2000). In addition, the total number of acres irrigated in the State increased by nearly 23 percent during 1995- 2000. Thermoelectric-power water use continues to be the largest of any water-use category in Georgia. Although withdrawal peaked during 1980 and declined through 1985, thermoelectric-power water use had a constant increasing trend since 1985. Generating hydroelectric power requires the use of significant amounts of water. From 1980 to 1995 hydroelectricpower water use was increasing. However, because hydroelectric-power water use is dependent on the availability of surface-water flow, low-flow conditions related to drought during 1995- 2000 resulted in a 19,000Mgal/d decrease in usage. Water use for public supply likely will continue to increase as the State's population grows. Conversely, industrial water use likely will continue to decrease because of technological advances and improved conservation measures. Water use for irrigation will continue to follow climatic trends, with increased usage during dry years and decreased usage during wet years. Table 6.
