Industrial Water Use

Georgia’s industrial sector is quite varied in both types of industry and amount of water use from the industry. Hence, the industrial water and wastewater forecasts will allow for this regional variation through use of the employment forecasts and input from the regional water councils, industry, and local governments. Industrial forecasts include both industrial demand met by public water providers and self-supply. Although public water providers often supply industrial users, industrial use is extracted from municipal supply and considered in the industrial forecasts. The planning contractors will also complete the industrial water and wastewater forecasts.
