For three decades, Florida and Georgia have been entangled in a legal battle over the Apalachicola Basin, with Florida claiming it is not getting a fair usage of the water supply.
As a result, officials in the Sunshine State want to put a cap on Georgia’s water usage, a cap that could potentially harm their farming industry.
Last month a federal judge ruled in Georgia’s favor — and now the battle is headed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
