The governor will meet with officials on Wednesday in Columbus and on Thursday in Albany... areas that like Atlanta and other parts of north Georgia are in the Appalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint (ACF) River Basin.
The meetings come as Georgia's legal battle with its neighbors escalates.
A federal judge issued a ruling last month concluding that Georgia has little legal rights to Lake Lanier.
The judge set a three-year deadline for Congress to ratify a new agreement. Perdue has since vowed to appeal the ruling, urged federal legislators to address the issue and says he's willing to jump-start negotiations between the three states.
