The Truth About Water site was established to provide comprehensive, accurate information regarding Hyundai Motor Group Metaplant America (HMGMA) and its future water supply. The goal is to provide timely updates to the local community and other individuals. We encourage you to utilize Truth About Water as a resource for accessing the most up to date information, including news updates, project timelines, frequently asked questions and past documents.
The Savannah Harbor-Interstate 16 Corridor Joint Development Authority (Savannah JDA) manages the Truth About Water website. Founded in 2014, the Savannah JDA includes the development authorities of Bryan, Bulloch, Chatham and Effingham counties. It has been working together collaboratively with local governments and the State of Georgia on facilitating development of HMGMA for many years, including how to provide the site with a safe, sustainable and secure source of water.
The Savannah JDA wants to reassure the local community that the necessary water supply for HMGMA can be provided while protecting and preserving the environment, including the Floridan Aquifer and the Ogeechee watershed. There is a viable plan for future water needs and we care about doing economic development the right way for this community.
