The city of Atlanta has finished the Bellwood Quarry reservoir project, meaning Atlanta now has an emergency water supply to serve as a backup lasting for a month or more.
Bellwood Quarry, before it was filled with more than 2 billion gallons of water from the Chattahoochee River, was used in a handful of TV shows and movies. It was a setting in “Stranger Things,” and “The Hunger Games,” among others.
Now the reservoir, which was finished late last year, holds a backup water supply, bringing Atlanta’s emergency reserves from an amount that would last three to five days up to a supply that will last between 30 and 90 days, according to the city.
