Working with the Water Quality Forum partners, Knox County has developed a program to provide Knox County citizens with solutions for off-Right-of-Way requests addressing erosion and nuissance flooding. The ESP provides engineered sustainable and bioengineered approaches to the age old public works requests for pipe and rip-rap. In addition to providing "real life" solutions, ESP is an excellent education tool for citizens, landscape professionals, contractors, and public works/utility employees.
