The Water Wars are still on. Georgia's state senate has passed a resolution calling for access to Tennessee River Water, just North of the Dade County line.

The resolution, presented by Senator David Shafer of Duluth, says "the state of Tennessee has used mismarked boundary lines to block our access to this important waterway." The resolution proposes a settlement to the boundary dispute, caused by an almost 200 year old survey error that pushes the Georgia-Tennessee border nearly a mile south of the actual 35th parallel.

It calls for Georgia to give up rights to reclaim the entire area of land from Tennessee, in exchange for a narrow slot of TVA owned land, which would give Georgia access to Tennessee River water at Nickajack. It directs Georgia's Attorney General to sue to gain control of the entire area to the 35th Parallel, if no agreement is reached with Tennessee.

House Resolution 4 now returns to the Georgia House for agreement on amendments made by the State Senate.
