  • Cities of Fairburn, Palmetto, and Union City Draft Surface Water Withdrawal Permit Response to Comments July 23, 2020
    Cities of Fairburn, Palmetto, and Union City Draft Surface Water Withdrawal Permit Response to Comments July 23, 2020 Atlanta Comment 1: Atlanta is particularly concerned with EPD’s apparent acceptance of the South Fulton Cities characterization of the underlying facts, including the reasons underlying the South Fulton Cities’ rejection of Atlanta’s existing, fully-permitted water capacity to provide the needed wholesale water supply to the South Fulton Cities. Atlanta has provided wholesale water to Fairburn and Union City since 1957 and has continued to do so despite Fairburn and Union City’s unwillingness to enter into a long term contract. Despite the South Fulton Cities’ protestations otherwise, this water supply is available and Atlanta remains willing and able to enter into a long term water supply contract with the South Fulton Cities. As such, this Permit should be denied. Response to Atlanta Comment 1: The absence of a long-term contract between the City of Atlanta and the Cities of Fairburn, Palmetto, and Union City (South Fulton Cities) has been considered by EPD in its review of the water withdrawal application by the South Fulton Cities. The fact that these cities and their citizens are without the benefit and guarantee of a long-term water supply contract weighs in EPD’s assessment and decision-making. EPD does not have the legal authority to determine, and therefore does not take a position on, who bears the responsibility of the lack of a contract. Under the 1999 Fulton County Service Delivery Strategy (SDS), the South Fulton Cities are designated water supply providers to citizens residing inside the cities’ geographic areas.
