Augusta Canal to be drained

Augusta's historic waterway is set to be drained. The Augusta Canal will go dry next month so the city can install new water lines that transfer drinking water. The goal is to meet the city's water needs through 2050. The Augusta Canal is a National Heritage Area that attracts cyclists along its banks as well as boaters.
