To perform the following-listed water obstruction and encroachment activities associated with Waterfront Maintenance Repairs and Site Development at (the former) Delaware Generating Station for L-A Battery QOZ, LLC. The proposed project involves maintenance repairs to the existing waterward structures, upgrade an existing outfall and stormwater system, redesigning of existing impervious surfaces to include roadways, a parking lot, landscaping, and a public accessible waterfront walkway. The work will be conducted in three phases—outlined as follows:
Phase I: Renovation of the former station building into office space, apartments, and event space.
Pier 61 North
• Install a new, approximately 4,300-square-foot reinforced concrete slab on the timber low deck along with approximately twenty-two (22) steel HP14 piles.
• Install a new, approximately 7,300-square-foot reinforced concrete slab on the timber low deck over existing piles.
• Install twenty-seven (27) new 14-inch steel auxiliary pipe piles along the seawall.
• Conduct repairs to concrete seawall face.
Upriver Marginal Wharf
• Install a new, reinforced, approximately 3,560-square-foot concrete slab on the existing timber low deck.
• Replace existing steel sheet pile wall along approximately 115 linear feet of the inshore portion of the marginal wharf.
• Install six (6) new 14-inch steel auxiliary pipe piles along the seawall.
• Install approximately twenty-nine (29) new pile encasements for steel H-piles.
Phase II: Site Improvements of approximately 322 parking spaces, driveway across Palmer Street, walkways, landscaping, stormwater management, and lighting:
The applicant also proposes the following site improvements:
• Construct an approximately two hundred seventy-five (275) space parking lot and provide forty-seven (47) spaces around the renovated station.
• Construct a private extension of Palmer Street.
• Construct nine (9) bioretention basin stormwater management practices (SMP). The basins will treat runoff from the ground-level impervious areas. Each basin will include an outlet control structure engineered to meet PWD's stormwater management requirements.
• Construct a stormwater collection system that will include catch basins, conveyance piping and associated structures, and will discharge to the SMPs.
• Enhance the site with landscaping.
Phase III
• Construct a 935 by 12 linear-foot Public Access River Trail through a 40-foot to 50-foot-wide easement along the waterfront wharf seawall. The trail will connect to the existing Delaware River Waterfront Corporation (DRWC)-managed trail located south of the site in Penn Treaty Park and extend to the northern boundary of the site. The trail will be paved and marked with appropriate signage with shoulders and landscaped areas proposed on either side of the trail.
The site is located at 1325 Beach Street (Camden, Philadelphia, PA, USGS Map; Latitude: 39.966854; Longitude: -75.126362) in the City and the County of Philadelphia. Permit issued February 10, 2022.
