GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. — The office that monitors the safety of Georgia’s water supply will remain open.

But following pressure from Senators Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff last month, the Trump administration now says the office will stay open.
The office regularly tests water quality to make sure that Georgia’s drinking water is safe.
