On the dock in the bay

   Celebrating a new University acquisition in Lewes are (from left)
University President David P. Roselle; Eugene Johnson, president of
the Delaware Bay & River Cooperative Inc. (DBRC); Carolyn
Thoroughgood, dean of the College of Marine Studies; and William M.W.
Sharp, University trustee. This dock, built by DBRC, was turned over
to the University by Johnson in an informal ceremony May 19. Located
next to the College of Marine Studies' Marine Operations Building, the
dock will be used both by the college and DBRC, which has been using
space on the University dock and in the Marine Operations Building for
some time. When the cooperative purchased a larger vessel, it built
the new dock so that all the boats could maneuver better. Founded in
1981 and supported by members of the petroleum and petroleum
transportation industries, the DBRC is dedicated to the safe
transportation of cargoes and the preservation of waterways.
