Did you know that Georgia is home to 357 watershed flood control dams? Many residents are unaware of their proximity to these structures. Our office is committed to raising awareness and promoting safety around these critical infrastructures.

We also provide resources on how to reach the Office of the Governor, State Senate, State House of Representatives, state agencies, and other conservation partners. Together, we can make a difference in preserving Georgia’s natural resources for future generations.
