***Public Given Opportunity To Comment

The Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD) has issued a public notice that the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) intends to impact the buffer of the headwaters of McNutt Creek to build the new interchange of Dials Mill Extension and SR 316.
