There Is a Newer Version
of
the Georgia Code
2006 Georgia Code - 44-8-2
44-8-2. The beds of nonnavigable streams belong to the
owner of the adjacent land. If the stream is a dividing line
between two parcels of land, each owner´s boundary shall
extend to the thread or the center of the main current of the
water. If the current changes gradually, the boundary line follows
the current. If from any cause the stream takes a new channel, the
original line, if identifiable, remains the boundary. Gradual
accretions of land on either side accrue to the owner of that
side.
