The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is getting $3 million in federal stimulus money to complete a study on managing the Apalachicola, Chattahoochee, Flint River basin. The study covers "water supply, recreation, hydropower, flood damage reduction, navigation, and fish and wildlife." Alabama, Georgia and Florida have been embroiled in a long-running dispute over water in the ACF basin. Another $8 million is for Buford Dam and Lake Lanier, metro Atlanta's main water source along the Chattahoochee.
