The purpose of the surveys were to: Establish the extent of present pollution as relating to present waste disposal methods by the two mills, and provide a factual basis for views regarding the probable extent of pollution after backwater from Lake Lanier on Chattahoochee River covers the lower sections of the two creeks. |
