These are aerial drone pictures and movies of the Quitman, Georgia, Land Application Site (LAS) or sprayfield.
Quitman Land Application Site, Sprayfield by Okapilco Creek, Drone aerials in 2022, 12318 E US 84, Quitman, GA 31643
It’s NPDES Permit No. GAJ020022.
We do not know exactly when the drone images were taken, but sometime between about June and November 2022.
I have repeatedly asked for a tour of Quitman’s wastewater facilities, over many months. So far, their contractor has only delayed doing that.
Here’s a playlist of two drone videos:

You’ll find the entrance with signs saying keep out at 12318 E US 84, Quitman, GA 31643. On US 84 east of Quitman, turn right just before Okapilco Creek, in Brooks County. See the pictures of that entrance I took July 5, 2024.
