Georgia Department of Natural Resources Environmental Protection Division Strategy 2026
This document outlines the Georgia Surface Water and Groundwater Quality Monitoring and Assessment Strategy, developed by the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (GAEPD) to serve as a roadmap for the state's ambient water quality monitoring program. The strategy focuses on key elements identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's guidance. Its vision is to gather information for developing indicators and standards to protect human health, aquatic life, and Georgia's environment. The mission includes assessing water quality, developing standards, taking corrective actions for identified impacts, and communicating this information to stakeholders. Key goals involve measuring physical, chemical, and biological water conditions, assessing human impact on ecosystems, recommending corrective actions, and reporting water quality assessments. The strategy addresses challenges such as controlling toxic substances, ensuring sustainable water supply, managing nutrient discharges, reducing nonpoint source pollution, and increasing public involvement.
