Two days after severe flooding hit the Atlanta area, employees at the $41 million North Georgia Credit Union of Toccoa were still relying on bottled water.
"We're managing OK now, but we did have to close on Monday and part of Tuesday," said Laura Williams, vice president of marketing.
The CU's 12 employees had to bring in lunch and stay indoors as most of the local fast food restaurants stayed closed due to the water situation and backed up sewer lines, said Williams.

Williams said it was uncertain when the city of Toccoa, a city of 25,000 that lies 80 miles north of Atlanta, might get its water problem solved "but in the meantime we've got cases of water."
