Today members of a task force in charge of creating a water-saving plan for the University of Georgia campus are scheduled to give an update on their work. The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. in the university's chapel. Workers in one area of UGA's North Campus have placed red plastic trash buckets beneath air conditioning units to collect dripping water -- to water plants. UGA President Dexter Adams says the school is also determining whether it can adapt the roofs of North Campus buildings to collect rain water. On Thursday, Athens-Clarke County Commissioners will hear details of an emergency drought plan that could go into effect as soon as November.
