He added, “Covington’s reloca- tion to CityCenterDC embod- ies one of the most important design themes of the project’s master plan – integrating the new with the old, ‘reweaving’ the fabric of the surrounding neighborhood with the state- of-the-art amenities and com- ponents of CityCenterDC.” ■

By James Cinelli Proposed Maryland

NPDES Ind. Stormwater Permit Requires Treatment of 20% of Impervious Surfaces

T

he Maryland Depart- ment of Environmen- tal Protection (MDE)

is proposing to make sig- nificant revisions to its Gen- eral Permit for Discharges of Stormwater Associated With Industrial Activities. These revisions go far beyond the requirements for implemen- tation of Best Management Practices (BMPs), many of which have been non-struc- tural and the core of the in- dustrial stormwater permit- ting program as documented in a facility’s Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The proposed permit will require physical changes to a facility and will likely result in significant costs to the permittee. The revised permit requires specific control measures in the SWPPPbased on the facil- ity type. When this permit is formally adopted, industries will have 90 days to file an application, fee payment, and

SWPPP. Most significantly, the permit requires restora- tion of impervious surfaces using the updated Maryland Stormwater Design Manual or equivalent actions in order to address Maryland require- ments for the Chesapeake Bay and local TMDLs. The requirement mandates that permit holders treat 20% of the impervious surfaces not currently treated to the stan- dards of the Design Manual by the fifth year of the permit term. This might include construction of bioretention basins, conversion of paved areas to pervious paving, or

installation of green roofs. An implementation plan and yearly updates are required to be submitted to the MDE. The new General Permit application now requires more detailed information relevant to the permit condi- tions, such as local stream impairments or TMDLs, and calculated area of impervi- ous surfaces. Also required is an electronic version of a SWPPP including a site map illustrating discharge loca- tions and other information regarding activities of the applicant to protect waters continued on page A

The Apartments at Pike Creek

NEWARK, DE — Cush- man & Wakefield, Inc. has completed the sale of The Apartments at Pike Creek, a 264-unit complex on 19 acres. Karen Iman, Brian Whitmer, Andrew Merin, and Anthony Liberto of the firm’s Capital Markets Group represented the seller, Hen- derson Global, and procured the buyer, a fund managed by Sentinel Real Estate Corporation . “This offering provided a rare opportunity to acquire an institutional-grade apart- ment community in the af- fluent Pike Creek area of Delaware,” said Iman. “Ap- proximately 70 percent of the market’s inventory was built

before 1979. A testament to the scarcity of newer luxury rental product is the fact that Pike Creek was near full oc- cupancy at the time of sale. The buyer recognized the his- torical stability of cash flow with an ability to improve yield through upgrading unit finishes.” “The Greater Philadelphia area has seen an increas- ingly significant number of opportunities come to market, more so than we’ve seen in several years,” said Whitmer. “But we don’t see many pre- mier assets trade in northern Delaware, which explains the strong response and high five capitalization rate pricing we received for this offering.” n
