AT&T recently announced a contract with Spring Water On Tap, an Atlanta-based natural spring water supplier that maintains fresh spring water supplies in large local tanks for all of it's customers' personal uses.

The solution which attaches ultrasonic sensors and interlinked cellular-based modems to 65-gallon water tanks, allows the company to discern water levels and alert delivery trucks to bring more of the wet stuff. Claiming that "AT&T takes a very broad holistic view of RFID." Percy Jones, CEO of SWOT, says:

AT&T has enabled our company to provide customers with a seamless supply of fresh spring water at all times while unobtrusively monitoring the water levels in our customers' homes.

Ummm, given the fact that Georgia is experiencing severe to moderate drought in all but 5 counties, I'm wondering: shouldn't they be using this for monitoring the aquifers instead?
