While I appreciate the efforts to have bike "safe" grates so no one seriously injures themselves but still drains not level with the road surface or poor pavement quality around the drain (almost always happens in a short time span) really cannot be called bike friendly, so hazard markings like shown and described in AASHTO should be applied. But sadly I know of no place in Maryland were such a treatment can be found, what's up with that anyway?
