The tri-state water dispute is a water use debate among the states of Georgia, Alabama, and Florida over the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River Basin and the Alabama-Coosa-Tallapoosa River Basin. Lake Lanier in Georgia, created by the Buford Dam, is a major cause of the issue due to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers` capability to control the water levels of both river basins by regulating the flow of water from Lake Lanier to Alabama and Florida.
