BALTERM, LLP - SOUTH LOCUST POINT Harbour, Baltimore, Maryland | Marine Utilities

BALTERM, LLP - SOUTH LOCUST POINT is a harbour facility located at 2001 E MCCOMAS ST in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. As a key marine terminal in the Port of Baltimore, it supports the region's maritime logistics and cargo handling operations. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US EPA Vessel General Permit (VGP) and NPDES permits for shoreside activities, ensuring compliance with stormwater management and oil-water separation standards. It also adheres to IMO MARPOL Annexes for waste reception and pollution prevention, typical for US harbours. Located in Baltimore's industrial waterfront, the facility plays a significant role in the local economy by facilitating bulk and container cargo movement. Its proximity to the Chesapeake Bay watershed necessitates robust environmental management to protect sensitive coastal habitats from runoff and operational discharges.

The facility is situated on the Patapsco River, part of the Chesapeake Bay estuary, a sensitive coastal ecosystem. Stormwater runoff and potential oil-water discharges from cargo handling require careful management under US EPA NPDES permits. The harbour's operations may involve bulk or container cargo, each posing distinct risks to water quality and marine life.
