FRANKLIN — Heard County in west Georgia says the county's two water sources have dried up because of the drought.

The county banned all outdoor water use a month and a half ago. But the county has recorded only an inch and a half of rain in the past 40 days.

In the meantime, the Public Work's Department is installing pumps in a quarry to draw water out. Heard County also is buying water from neighborhing Carroll County.

Heard County Water Authority Director Jimmy Knight said county residents have been obeying the outdoor water ban. He said the county has issued only a few verbal warnings and only one written citation.

I'm praying to pull it this way.
