3082                                    LAWS OF MARYLAND                                 Ch. 805

(c)  All existing storm drainage systems or parts
thereof which have heretofore been constructed in the
Washington Suburban Sanitary District portion of Prince
George's County in streets, alleys, public ways or public
spaces, including those constructed within areas dedicated
to the public use or granted to any public agency by deed or
other appropriate conveyance and which have been constructed
pursuant to plans and specifications which were approved by
either the commission or by the county commissioners of
Prince George's County, or with respect to which the
commission may, following an inspection, determine to have
been adequately constructed, shall be taken over for
maintenance by the commission not later than July 1, 1966.
However, the following exceptions shall be made:

(1)  storm drainage systems in land owned by the
Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission shall
not come within the provisions of this subsection but shall
be maintained by the said Maryland-National Capital Park and
Planning Commission;

(2)  storm drainage systems and facilities within
a road maintained by the state roads commission shall be
maintained by the state; and

(3)  after July 1, 1978 the City of Bowie shall
have control of all storm drainage systems or parts thereof
within the jurisdiction of the City of Bowie, including all
existing storm drainage systems or parts thereof which have
been under the control of the Washington Suburban Sanitary
Commission prior to July 1, 1978.

(d)  In connection with its review and approval of the
requirements for storm drainage, the commission may require
the owner or owners to provide right of way or easement
areas for storm drainage facilities, and may require the
owner or owners to agree to construct the necessary
facilities or to provide for such construction by posting a
bond in an amount sufficient to construct the storm and
surface water drainage facilities deemed necessary by the
commission. In such connection, the commission may require
the owner's bond for the construction of facilities in
adjacent or nearby land in the same drainage area which the
commission may determine will be required subsequently by
reason of the development of the first mentioned owner's
land. Easements and rights of way required by the
commission shall bear such restrictions as the commission
may require as to grading and a prohibition against the
location of structures, fences or plantings in or on the
easement area. The Maryland-National Capital Park and
Planning Commission shall not approve any plat for
subdivision of land until it shall first ascertain from the
Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission whether or not
rights of way or easement areas for storm drainage
facilities are required, and if such rights of way or
easement areas are required the Maryland-National Capital
Park and Planning Commission shall not approve such plat for
