HELEN — A group seeking water-sharing solutions for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River basin passed a resolution Thursday asking Florida Gov. Rick Scott “to delay any further legal action or pursue any current lawsuit” against Georgia over freshwater consumption in the basin. The ACF Stakeholders’ governing board, taking the action at the end of a two-day meeting at Unicoi State Park, asked for the delay until it “has published its recommendations for a sustainable water management plan.”
