Delmarva Power announces consolidation of district offices
Delmarva Power announced
last week that it plans to consoli-
date several district offices into
six operating centers by the end of
1998.
The offices in Rehoboth Beach
and Ocean City, Chestertown, St.
Michael's, Cambridge and West-
over, Md., will be merged into op-
erating centers located in Chris-
tiana and Millsboro, and in Salis-
bury, Centreville and North East,
Md. and in Exmore, Va.
The Harrington office will
function as a satellite operating
center.
The operating centers will con-
solidate field-related resources
such as engineering, construction,
maintenance and meter reading.
"By merging our offices, we are
streamlining our operations,
which will allow us to operate
more efficiently," said Jay Mason,
a Delmarva Power spokesperson.
"We remain committed to main-
taining a strong community pres-
ence while continuing our tradi-
tion of delivering safe, reliable en-
ergy to our customers."
In October, 1996, the company
decided it would no longer accept
customers' bill payments at dis-
trict offices after 1998. During the
next 18 month, to increase cus-
tomer convenience, the company
plans to expand the number of lo-
cations, such as Acme Markets,
Shore Stops and Thriftways, that
accept Delmarva Power pay-
ments.
Customers can call the company
24 hours a day, seven days a week
at (800) 375-7117 to obtain their
account information, request ser-
vice or report a service emer-
gency.
Mason said that consolidating
field-related resources into operat-
ing centers is expected to elimi.
nate approximately 100 positions.
The company plans to sell those
offices that will close by the end
of 1998.

New restaurant opens in Bethany
This spring, Bethany Beach's
popular Holiday House Restau-
rantbecame the new Bethany's
which is scheduled to open for the
season in late April.
The restaurant may be in the
same location, on the Boardwalk
at the end of Garfield Parkway,
but it has changed in almost every
other way. ?Sometimes change is
inevitable," said owner Debbie
Reilly. "In this case, change is
good."
The dark wood hues have been
replaced in favor of white walls
decorated with prints of shells,
flamingos and beach grass, and
teal and mauve serve as accent
colors which bring out the view of
the beach and boardwalk.
Gone also are the outside food
booths which had adjoined the
boardwalk.
The new snack bar and deli are
located in the west wing near the
steps that go up from Garfield
Parkway, and the two double
doors that lead to the snack bar
area will almost always be open to
accommodate those who want a
quick meal.
"I think the Holiday House is a
Bethany Beach landmark, a mon-
ument at the beach," said Reilly.
"People always say, 'meet me
by the Holiday House.' Now I
hope they will say, 'meet me at
Bethany's.'"
