Stormwater management has entered a new phase in the state of Tennessee. The requirements for NPDES municipal stormwater permits, TMDLs, watershed assessments and the desire to protect human life, property, aquatic habitats and the quality of life in our communities has brought home the pressing need to manage both stormwater quantity and quality from our developed and developing areas.
The goal of the Stormwater Management Manuals and Stormwater Ordinance documents is to develop and promote a consistent and effective approach and implementation of stormwater management in Knox County.
