Narrative:
It was a VMC day; and we were requested by ATC to maintain visual separation while departing runway 27R that morning. Departing on an air carrier flight from atl; we encountered moderate to severe wake turbulence. We were climbing through 3000 ft on the novss 1 departure out of atl approximately 3 mi prior to futbl. The captain (PF) deviated right of course for wake turbulence avoidance. After he started to deviate; I contacted atl departure and asked for 10 degrees right of course; which was denied. ATC said they could give us 10 degrees left of course; at which point we were clear of the wake turbulence. Rather than crossing into the wake turbulence again; we rejoined the departure procedure to futbl.

Title: CL600 FLT CREW ENCOUNTERS WAKE TURB DURING THE NOVSS1 DEP FROM ATL.
Narrative: IT WAS A VMC DAY; AND WE WERE REQUESTED BY ATC TO MAINTAIN VISUAL SEPARATION WHILE DEPARTING RWY 27R THAT MORNING. DEPARTING ON AN ACR FLT FROM ATL; WE ENCOUNTERED MODERATE TO SEVERE WAKE TURB. WE WERE CLBING THROUGH 3000 FT ON THE NOVSS 1 DEP OUT OF ATL APPROX 3 MI PRIOR TO FUTBL. THE CAPT (PF) DEVIATED R OF COURSE FOR WAKE TURB AVOIDANCE. AFTER HE STARTED TO DEVIATE; I CONTACTED ATL DEP AND ASKED FOR 10 DEGS R OF COURSE; WHICH WAS DENIED. ATC SAID THEY COULD GIVE US 10 DEGS L OF COURSE; AT WHICH POINT WE WERE CLR OF THE WAKE TURB. RATHER THAN XING INTO THE WAKE TURB AGAIN; WE REJOINED THE DEP PROC TO FUTBL.
