Vincennes is the Knox County seat on the Wabash River, one of Indiana's oldest and most historic cities and the first capital of the Indiana Territory, where land clearing demand centers on the historic river community's residential and commercial development, county seat activity on the Wabash River bottomland and upland terrain, and the rural property management of Knox County's productive agricultural landscape. Knox County's terrain combines Wabash River bottomland with gently rolling upland, and Indiana Rule 5 SWPPP coverage is required for disturbances exceeding one acre.
Bush honeysuckle and multiflora rose have established in Knox County's woodland margins and Wabash River corridor, and the river bottomland has cottonwood, silver maple, and native riparian vegetation with invasive shrubs in some bottomland margins. Autumn olive is established in some disturbed areas and old field margins throughout the county.
Forestry mulching is appropriate for Vincennes' Knox County Wabash River and upland terrain, handling river bottomland brush management and upland residential and commercial clearing. The Wabash River corridor benefits from mulching's compatibility with Army Corps of Engineers and Indiana DNR riparian guidelines.
