Over 12 million gals. of sewage released into Inner Harbor

The Department of Public Works reported that over 12 million gallons of sewage and untreated stormwater went into the Harbor due to heavy rainfall.

On Wednesday, February 24, the city was hit with over two inches of rainfall. According to the DPW, this overflow overloaded the city’s aging sewer system.

“Overflows were designed and built into the original sewer system over 100 years ago as release points for excessive water flow, such as occurs when heavy rainfall enters the sewer system. Having such release points was standard at that time, but they are being phased out under terms of Baltimore’s sewer system Consent Decree,” states the DPW’s report.

Initially, the DPW reported that only 200,000 gallons had been released.

When the sewer system was designed over 100 years ago, 62 of these outflow ports were created to reduce excessive water flow, or “storm surges”. Since 2002, 60 outflows have been closed. The two that remain open are located at 1901 Falls and 428 E. Preston Street. Both ports’ emissions eventually end up in the Jones Falls.

Fires damage non-profits, donations needed Last weekend, back-to-back fires devastated

two Baltimore non-profits.The first non-profit affected was Sharp

Dressed Man which donates suits to men searching for jobs. The fire started as a result of faulty electrical wiring at the boutique located at 235 Park Ave.

The store’s inventory was not lost, however the building requires extensive repairs. They cannot reopen until they make the necessary repairs or find a new storefront.

Sharp Dressed Man is reaching out to the community for help funding the renovations. In 24 hours, they’ve raised over $7,000.

To donate, visit www.sharpdressedman.causevox.com.

The following day on Wednesday, March 2, a fire broke out inside The Book Thing of Baltimore, a free book exchange in Waverly. The building and most of its inventory were severely damaged. The Book Thing was open the day after the fire to give away the salvaged

books and volunteers worked to clean up the location.

The cause of the fire is still being investigated.

A GoFundMe for The Book Thing raised over $10,000 in two days. Those still interested in donating can visit, www.bookthing.org.

Baltimore Ghost Tours is also pledging all the proceeds from their March 19th (8-9:30 p.m.) tour to The Book Thing. For more information visit www.facebook.com/events/ 567541300073089.

On Tuesday, March 15, Councilman Jim Kraft will be hosting a Fire Safety and Prevention seminar at Breathe of God Lutheran Church at 141 S. Clinton St. from 6 to 7:30 p.m.

Among the event’s speakers will be city emergency officials and representatives from several city agencies who will provide advice on preventing fires in your homes and how to remain safe.

Book by local Ukrainian refugee deals with issues of God and identityChristine Sporrer grew up divided.She was the daughter of displaced

Ukrainian immigrants who were living in Baltimore City. She attended St. Michael Ukrainian Catholic Church where she was entrenched in Ukrainian customs and traditions. But outside of school, she encountered the diverse populations of Southeast Baltimore and struggled between assimilating and maintaining her family’s culture.

“It was like living in two different worlds. We had two lives. So what happened was we

grew up in an environment where nothing was certain and where there were times when we didn’t fit in. When you have a situation like that, you don’t realize until years later how much it impacts your life,” said Sporrer.

Sporrer wrote about her experiences and how they helped her grow and establish her own identity in a book titled, “Was God Missing in Action?” The book also documents Sporrer’s journey in losing and then recovering her faith. She details her time at St. Michael’s and how the values and teachings she learned there still inspire her to this day. The book features prayers and stories about one’s personal relationship with God.

Sporrer will return to her home church for a book signing and reading at St. Michael Ukrainian Catholic Church at 2401 Eastern Ave. on Saturday, March 12 at 3 p.m.

Sporrer’s parents escaped a war-torn Ukraine when she was young. She recalls sleeping on crowded cots at refugee camps and wondering what her life would become. She is grateful for the opportunities that America has given her and says her past situation mirrors the Syrian refugee crisis.

She currently lives in Florida but said the trip back to Baltimore will mean a lot to her.

“I know when I get off that flight, all these memories are going to come flooding back to me. Baltimore is where my heart is because that’s where we started,” she said.

The 5¢ redeemable deposit provides an economic incentive for returning empty beverage containers.

“

“Recyling bill aims to reduce litter

by paying bucks for bottlesby GIANNA DECARLO [email protected]

Last month, Senator Bill Ferguson presented a bill to the General Assembly that would establish a Recycling Refund and Litter Reduction Program to reduce the number of disposed beverage containers.

More specifically, the bill targets recyclable bottles.

It works like this:The program would assign a 5 cent value to

every bottle. The 5 cents will be included in the bottle’s retail price. The program would also oversee the creation of retention and recycling centers where the customers can drop off their bottles and receive the refund.

You return the bottle to the center, you receive the 5 cents back.

“The 5-cent redeemable deposit provides an economic incentive for returning empty beverage containers. Subsequently, the program will reduce litter and litter collection costs to counties and municipalities. This is money our communities can use to solve other public works problems,” said Ferguson. “This is the most efficient and effective means of litter reduction and increasing recycling when it comes to bottles.”

All retailers and recycling centers, which includes any location that sells beverage containers, will be equipped with a “reverse vending machine” that will scan the returned bottles’ UPC codes to determine if it’s a bottle from Maryland, thus qualifying the customer for the refund.

“It’s about changing cultural habits in a way that isn’t burdensome and economically damaging. This is turning what would be left in a landfill into marketable goods. That is an optimal outcome for the state of Maryland, but it’s especially critical for places where we suffer from big problems related from litter,” he said.

The program will be self-financed through unclaimed refunds and the sale of valuable commodities from recycled goods, such as aluminum from cans. Additional revenue will be allocated for grants that will go to local clean-ups and environmental programming.

If successful, it should also reduce the overall cost of state-funded recycling and trash collection.

Ferguson said that programs like this, which prioritize recycling waste as opposed to incinerating it or placing it in landfills, “just make the most sense.”

“Each year, over 4.8 billion beverage

containers are sold in Maryland. However, only 25 percent of these containers are sold back to industry to be reused, leaving more than 3 billion to end up in landfills, waterways, highways, and on the beach,” he explained.

He said the program’s ultimate goal is to achieve a recycling and reuse goal of 70% for the approximately 4.8 billion beverage containers sold annually in Maryland.

According to Ferguson, similar programs have been implemented in ten other states, including most recently Hawaii, and have found great success.

“That bottle that was tossed on the ground, people will now have the thought to pick it up and turn it back in,” he said.

The program will be created, run, and monitored by the Maryland Environmental Service, an independent state agency focused on environmental protection. The MES will be responsible for overseeing all the recycling centers, and the accumulated funds and establishing marketing to inform the public about the program.

The bill has been a work in progress for three years. It was presented at the General Assembly and the Finance Committee which is holding the bill until it receives a final decision from the House.

If the bill is passed, the program is to be fully implemented by July 1, 2017. Ferguson said it would take at least a year to set up the recycling center and decimate the information to residents.

“Right now we’re trying to figure out if the timing is right for such a bill.

Big bills like this, that are so complex and that will bring cultural-wide change, take time.”

Calendar The St. Casimir Coddie Crew is hard at work.Every Lent, dozens of volunteers come out and work tirelessly to prepare Lenten foods,

such as crab cakes and coddie cakes, for the yearly fundraiser that benefits St. Casimir School at 1035 S. Kenwood Ave.

This 75-year-old tradition has been a staple of the Lenten season in Canton. The coddie cakes, which are made of codfish and mashed potatoes, are by far the most popular dish and perfect for those abstaining from meat this Lent. The cakes can be ordered fried or unfried for $2.75 or $2.50 respectively.

The crew will make approximately 3,000 coddie cakes and over 100 crab cakes a week. They also sell coleslaw, potato salad, and macaroni salad for $3 a pound.

The proceeds raised for the fundraiser will go towards St. Casimir School. In the past years, the six-week long fundraiser has raised over $30,000, all which will greatly benefit the students. The volunteers, which can be parents or St. Casimir students or just a helpful neighbor, sometimes even work 24-hour shifts to keep their inventory stocked.

All orders must be received by 3 p.m. on Wednesdays. The pick-up day for your order is the following Friday.

Orders are to be picked up between the hours of 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM at the Kolbe Center, 1st floor (directly behind St. Casimir Church). When placing your order, please remember to designate your pick up time.

The Coddie Crew will be taking orders until Monday, April 11.

Live and Let Pie


“My fortés are baking and rocking.”Rodney Henry says this with a smirk as he leans

back in a booth at Dangerously Delicious Pies in Canton. His fingers tap the table in beat to the rock music that is blaring in the shop.

Henry, Baltimore’s very own “Pie Guy” and founder of Dangerously Delicious Pies, has had a busy couple of years since his appearance on Food Network’s “Food Network Star” in 2013. Most of this time has been spent traveling, baking, and, naturally, rocking.

“I’m everywhere. I’m a constant traveler,” he said. “I stay wherever. I’m a couch surfer right now and I like it like that. The last three years have been pretty wide open. It’s the way I’ve always wanted to go.”

Currently, Henry is back in town to perform shows at the Windup Space and Baltimore Soundstage with his rockabilly band, The Glenmont Popes. The band is currently recording their next album which will be released exclusively on vinyl.

He jet-sets between his home in Detroit, to Florida, to D.C., to Texas, never remaining idle in one place for more than a few weeks.

In between this, he is working on his first cookbook, which features, of course, his favorite pie recipes.

“It’s not like a traditional cookbook, it’s like humorist anecdotes from the road but all about pie. The way I’m meeting people is with pie. Some of the people and stories influenced the recipes.”

The cookbook is to be released shortly. Henry explains that his Dangerously Delicious

pies have always been inspired by the unique, quirky, and diverse people he’s encountered while traveling.

For example, the recipe for DDP’s customer favorite, the White Trash Creme Brulée pie, was inspired by the old-style country music his grandmother used to play.

However, Henry will most likely not be making a pie dedicated to the Baltimore Orioles’ management.

Orioles’ center fielder Adam Jones began a ritual of slamming Dangerously Delicious pies into the face of his teammates at the end of the winning game. Two weeks ago, the Orioles announced that they are banning this practice due to safety concerns.

“It’s awesome. I mean, the fact that there’s actually drama is great, it cracks me up. The fact that we’ve gotten so much support from around Baltimore, from across the country, the fact that’s nationwide news now is killing me. It’s become such a fun thing and people really looked forward to it,” said Henry

when asked about this controversy.He said that while understands and respects the

concerns for the players’ safety, the tradition will be missed by fans. He then jokes that there should be an art exhibits full of pictures of players getting pied.

“Whatever happens with that, I think it’s so great that people are up in arms over it. What’s it that they say? Even bad publicity is good publicity.”

Dangerously Delicious Pies currently has 5 locations: two in Baltimore, two in Washington D.C., and one in Detroit. Henry recently has spent most of his time in Detroit preparing the city’s second location, which is set to officially open any day now. He’s also been entertaining the idea of starting to ship the pies nationally.

Henry learned to bake from his grandmother and soon began selling slices at his band’s merchandise table during their shows.

After growing weary and bored from long work days being a pile driver, Henry opened his firstshop at the former site of Herman’s Bakery over 15 years ago.

“Pies are a very personal, emotional, thing. That’s how it started. Sometimes, I’d bake a pie and give it to a girl like ‘hey, baby I made you a pie,’” he laughs. “I’m obsessed by pie. When I’m out and peopleask me about pie, but once I get started, once I get on it, you’re screwed because I will not stop talking about it.”

As the Dangerously Delicious franchise began to grow, it gave Henry the freedom to pursue his musical dreams. He hopes it does the same for his employees, the majority of which are also musicians.

“I’m just interested in anything that’s fun and helps all of us out. The whole premise of this pie business was baking to take care of musicians.”

The pie shop is a secure job that will be there for his employees after they’ve returned from a show while being a source of income as they record and release music.

“When you’ve been around here a long time, most of my adult life, like I have, you meet so many cool folks. It’s like a mafia,” he pauses, “Well, maybe a not mafia. It’s more of a family.”

Since Dangerously Delicious’ success, Henry has noticed pie shops popping up more frequently all over the country. While he encourages the competition, he stresses that pie-making is something that requires a level of passion that many bakers who just end up latching on to culinary trends fail to have.

According to the Environmental Integrity Project, this is one of the largest amounts of stormwater released in the past five years.

“Two sewage system relief pipes on the Jones Falls dumped about 335 million gallons into the waterway in 119 incidents over the last five years, with about 97 percent of these overflows not reported to the public as required by state law,” states a report from the Environmental Integrity Project.

Baltimore City was under a 2002 consent decree with the Environmental Protection Agency and Maryland Department of the Environment to make major improvements to the sewer system to avoid these overflows. The deadline passed on January 1, 2016, and the city is only half way through its planned repairs. They are currently in the process of requesting a time extension for approximately 8 years.

Many clean water advocates are calling for a 2020 deadline to complete the consent decree.

“The City, State and EPA should take advantage of the growing enthusiasm and demand for a clean harbor that supports recreation and adopt an ambitious timeline to complete the consent decree. In the interim, the city should provide more public notifications of sewer overflows and water quality advisories to protect those who are already using our urban waterways,” said David Flores, the Baltimore Harbor Waterkeeper.

The DPW said that over $100,000,000 in sewer rehabilitation projects are occurring in Baltimore.

One such project is a $28 million effort to repair 20 miles of broken and leaking underground pipes in South Baltimore.

The city’s underground infrastructure has caused a variety of pollution-based problems. The pipes, over 100 years old, are prone to

leaks. The contaminated water that enters the Harbor through these defective pipes increases the levels of dangerous bacteria that can put those who utilize the Harbor at risk.

Last year, the Environmental Integrity Project released a report claiming that the DPW is underreporting sewage overflows. They outlined the pollution’s harmful effects.

“The Inner Harbor generates over $2 billion a year in tourism and business activity, but untreated human waste, with its odors and pathogens, continues to drag down the harbor’s potential,” states the report. “The levels of fecal bacteria in the Inner Harbor – where adults kayak and children and their parents play in dragon boats – exceed safe levels for limited water contact recreation at least 35 percent of the time.”

In June of 2014, the Healthy Harbor report card put together by the two organizations, Waterfront Partnership, and Blue Water Baltimore, gave the Inner Harbor and the Canton and Fell’s Point waterfronts failing grades.

The report cited the Harbor’s large amount of fecal bacteria, litter, algae bloom, and nitrogen and phosphorus levels, for the flunking scores.

SEPD combats robberies with foot patrols, new robbery unit

The Southeast Police Department has implemented new methods to combat the rash of robberies that the district has faced since January.

A robbery unit was established to discover patterns in the robberies and track down the suspects, said SEPD Captain George Clinedinst.

He said that since February 8, the unit has reduced robberies by over 50%.

Throughout the month of March, there will also be 30 officers, who are newly

graduated from the police academy, patrolling on foot. Clinedinst said the patrols will be focused on the business-heavy areas. The officers will be encouraged to enter businesses and form relationships with those in the neighborhood.

“We’re trying to get them to be more acclimated with the community, talking with the community, getting out on foot and meeting people, not just driving around in a police car,” said Clinedinst.

While the Baltimore Orioles haven’t been off to a hot start this spring training, first baseman Christian Walker has been a bright for the O’s so far.

It is still early in the 2016 preseason, but Walker has been playing well. In five games Walker is batting .333 with a home run and six runs batted in. Walker also has scored four runs, smacked two doubles and one triple.

Walker was drafted by the Orioles during the fourth round in the 2012 amateur draft out of the University of South Carolina. During his three years as a Gamecock Walker batted .336 with 30 HR and 168 RBI over the span of 197 games.

Walker has done very well in AA Bowie. Over the course of 428 at-bats, Walker batted .292 with 20 HR and 78 RBI. During the 2015 season, Walker spent the vast majority of his year in AAA Norfolk where he batted .257 over 534 at-bats. Walker hit 18 HR and had 74 RBI as well as collecting 33 doubles.

One of the Walker’s best attributes is his ability to get on base, something the Orioles need desperately.

During his final year at South Carolina Walker posted an impressive .450 on-base

Christian Walker shines at spring training

By special sports correspondent Andy Mindzak

BirdsHousepercentage. Walker’s on-base percentage at AA Bowie was .360 and his OBP at AAA Norfolk thus far is .327.

The Orioles have a definite need for someone who can get on base. While the O’s don’t have a need at first base with Chris Davis locked down for the next several years, Walker could perhaps try his hand at playing left field because let’s be honest, between Walker, Mark Trumbo and Nolan Reimold, there aren’t exactly any Gold Glovers out in left.

While the Orioles have been linked to trade rumors involving Cincinnati Reds’ outfielder Jay Bruce, perhaps they give Walker his fair shot this spring. It looks to be that way now, with Walker playing in five games so far, but if it turns out he needs more seasoning, then let him spend another year in AAA before bringing him up.

The issue with Bruce is that the O’s will have to trade to get him and what makes that trade even riskier is that Bruce will be a free agent after this season, although there is a 2017 team option. As of now it seems as though Buck Showalter is giving Walker a fair shake and if he plays well, he could very well play himself onto the O’s Opening Day roster.
