The Georgia Environmental Protection Division is requesting comments on the proposed rules and has scheduled a public hearing in Atlanta on May 17. The Board of Natural Resources will consider adopting the rules on May 26. If they are approved, EPD Communications Director Kevin Chambers said Friday, the department hopes they will take effect June 1. The proposed rules limit noncommercial outdoor water use during nondrought periods for odd-numbered home addresses to Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, and for even-numbered home addresses to Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays. The rules identify more restrictions, depending on the severity of drought conditions. For example, Chambers said during the first phase of a drought, a time restriction for watering would be added to the daily schedule.

Comments Hans Holbein, the younger, Typus Cosmographia Universalis Cultural Maps is dedicated to the graphical presentation of non-graphical information whatever that turns out to mean. At present, it has something to do with maps in the ordinary and normal sense of the term; the immediate goal is to build a digital American Historical Atlas. To the extent that maps serve as guides not only to the physical terrain but also and importantly as charts of the mapmaker's mental and cultural terrain, of the memories and desires, anxieties and assumptions he projects upon any terra incognita, we have begun building an historical geography of America. Eventually, this space will come to include graphs, charts, and images, in fact anything that serves as a concrete and physical representation of abstract ideas and intangible feelings.

ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION IN GEORGIA A Case Study: Athens, Georgia The City of Athens, founded in 1807, was named for the Greek center of culture and learning. As a preservation pioneer - one of the first Georgia cities to test the Main Street Program and one of two such cities with a local tax incentive program - Athens' rich history provides ample material by which to assess the economic benefits of preservation. The National Trust for Historic Preservation methodology is designed to quantify these benefits, through an analysis of real estate, construction, and commercial activity. For more information regarding the methodology employed for this study, please see the summary of the project .This model was applied to Athens-Clarke County, Rome and Tifton to determine the additional economic impact brought to these communities as a result of historic preservation ordinances. Each city represents a different region of the state and participates in the Main Street Program. Athens-Clarke County, unified in 1991 and the largest of the three sites chosen for the study, is the regional center of northeast Georgia and is a Certified Local Government. The fiscal success of endeavors, such as the Upson House built in 1847, preserve Athens' historical character and simultaneously provide avenues for growth. DEVELOPMENTAL HISTORY Chartered in 1785, the University of Georgia was officially established in 1801, the same year that Clarke County was formed. Athens' boundaries were drawn in a circular pattern one-and-a-half miles around the University's Chapel. The city expanded rapidly in a westward direction and by the 1830s the first suburb developed. With the introduction of rail service in 1841, the town soon became a prosperous commercial and industrial center. The cotton manufacturing industry gained prominence for the city, known for a time as the "Manchester of the South."

Counties in the United States Counties in the USA are considered geographical subdivisions of the states in which they are part of. While the various states have differing practices, it is almost universal that counties are not considered self governing municipalities like cities, villages and towns. One of the most complete studies of counties was researched by John H, Long and Gordon DenBoer in the "Atlas of Historical County Boundaries" The ISBN number for the Illinois volume is 0-13-366402-3. These usually are hard to find, check your local reference library. If you can, visit the Newberry Library in Chicago, one of the most complete centers of contemparary knowledge in the country. By my count there are 3143 Counties, Parishes or Independent Cities in the USA. There are a few oddities to be considered. The District of Columbia has no county government. The District was carved from the states of Maryland and Virginia. The Virginia portion was ceded back to Virginia in the mid 1800's. Prior to this what is now Arlington VA was Arlington County of the District of Columbia. The eastern section (from Maryland) was Washington County. Some time after Arlington was given back to Virginia the Washington County structure was abolished.
