Perdue comments on Florida, water

Governor Sonny Perdue had some sharp words Wednesday for Florida, concerning the so-called water wars between the two states. Perdue says the charge by Florida officials that Georgia chooses water needs of people over the environment--is false. Perdue says Florida is being disingenuous by saying withholding water from Lake Lanier--metro Atlanta’s main drinking water source--harms endangered spieces downstream. Perdue is in Miami, attending a Republican Governors Association conference.
