A recent report from the State of Delaware estimated that the number of people employed at the northern Delaware airport now totals 1,600, with the possibility of future growth.

Navient and Highmark confirm a limited number of job cuts here T wo large employers in the state, Navient and health insurer Highmark have confirmed a small number of job cuts, but are quick to add that the impact of the moves is minimal. The cuts were first reported by the News Journal. + Both companies operate offices in Wilmington, with Navient also having operations near Newark. “Last week, some dozen employees were displaced in an effort to align the right people with the right jobs to serve our customers and streamline our operations. These employees worked in our mail room, claims processing area and enrollment and billing,” stated Matt Stehl, corporate communications manager for Highmark. “Our business in Delaware has grown and so has our workforce.

It affected a very small number of total employment in Delaware. It does not materially impact our total workforce,” spokesperson Nikki Lavoie stated. “This quarter also saw positive trends in several other areas. For example, we purchased $1 billion in student loans. We achieved a second place finish in the Department of Education loans servicing scorecard driven by our industry-leading default prevention success. We saw another year-over-year improvement in new college graduate credit trends and generated strong growth in fee income from our asset recovery businesses, and we returned over $360 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends,” Lavoie continued. She also told The News Journal, the company would keep its commitments to hire additional staff as part of a financial package that brought the company headquarters to the city.

Department of Agriculture responds to EPA report From previous page TMDL. The assessment found that Delaware’s Nutrient Management Program regulates more than 1,000 farms throughout the state, including both crop and livestock farms. While regulated farms are required to develop and implement nutrient management plans, farmers are not required to submit them to the Delaware Department of Agriculture (DDA) for review or approval. relying heavily on voluntary agricultural costshare programs to increase implementation of conservation practices and on better data collection efforts to document those practices that are already on the ground. Delaware Department of Agriculture spokesman Dan Shortridge issued the following statement in response to the EPA report. “We are making a lot of progress toward everyone’s shared goals of improving our water The state ag department assists farmers in quality and achieving economic sustainability complying with their nutrient management for our family farmers, and the report from the plans, but does not take enforcement actions for EPA reflects this.

We have the tale of a traveler who took a US Airways flight every week from Phoenix to Portland, Oregon and saw his round-trip ticket jump by as much as $400. The airline said the fare increase was an oversight and the lower fare was restored. thing is difficult, although it is easy for airlines to independently decide against cutting fares as long as profits pile up and planes remain relatively full. With that said, fares could drop in the fall when demand drops, although airlines are not adding much capacity. It makes sudden fare hikes stand out. Frontier’s big city strategy An update on Frontier Airlines, which left DelaIndeed, other carriers on the competitive route had ware behind less than two years, after a surprise kept fares at $300, making the explanation plausdecision to come to New Castle Airport (ILG). able.

Recent announcements from Frontier indicate The government is also investigating whether the carrier will pack in more seats on new aircraft there has been some collusion in keeping fares but will do so in a way that will not have an effect up as fuel prices have plummeted. Proving such a on leg room. In the case of that dreaded middle seat, there may actually be more room. The larger number of seats makes sense in the case of large airports. That is not altogether bad news for Delaware travelers who now the option of taking Frontier flights from Philadelphia to Chicago, Orlando, Milwaukee and other destinations. Continued on next page travel From previous page Frontier is using the slogan “low fares done right” in an effort to convince travelers that it offers better service than other ultra-low fare carriers. Indeed, fares have dropped to some of the destinations served from Philadelphia, although you have to add in the charges for luggage, other than a purse or laptop bag. So far, the airline has a long ways to go to match the service of higher rated carriers. Southwest Airlines is a good value That brings us to Southwest Airlines. Southwest left a hole in the local discount fare market when it cut back service from Philadelphia after a rare defeat at the hands of US Airways. Southwest went on to complete a successful merger with Airtran. It established a beachhead in Denver that forced Frontier to undertake a low-fare secondary airport strategy that led the carrier to briefly fly into Delaware. Based on one recent long-distance flight from Baltimore to Phoenix, Southwest is a good option. After spending some time looking at its operations during the AirTran integration, Southwest stayed with the policy of not charging fees for luggage, no fee for canceling or changing flights, and not resorting to seat assignments. Actually, the fees and cancelation policy are included in the fares. Southwest is not always the least expensive carrier and some leisure travelers have cut back on their use of the airline after the pull-back in Philly and higher charges. Still, Boarding is smooth and flight crews are friendly in many cases. Not charging for bags generally means you will not face having your bag taken from you when the bins fill up. Warning - you can overdose on snacks and drinks during a long-flight as a hard- working flight crews runs up and down the aisles. Better yet, you do not have non-stop promotion of credit cards and other services one sees on US Airways. It’s too early to determine if this annoyance will make its way to American. Flight announcements on Southwest are loaded with one-liners that can include references to exhusbands, children kicking the seat, husbands who act like children and the declaration that this is a “no whining flight.” It is a refreshing departure from the detached and sometimes surly attitudes at other carriers. Not that Southwest is perfect. WiFi service can be slow and flight attendants end up acting as a help desk when the system has to be rebooted. The company and flight attendants have failed to come up with a labor contract, although unhappiness does not spill over into flights. Still, Southwest is a better option, if the price and route is right, and you want fewer hassles after getting through security. If you don’t mind flying from Baltimore-Washington, the airline offers non-stop flights to dozens of cities and even the Caribbean and Costa Rica. - Doug Rainey Delmarva parent, Exelon to pursue merger despite DC rejection D elmarva Power parent Pepco Holdings will go forward with a merger with Exelon, following rejection of the deal by the Public Utilities Commission for the District of Columbia. of the surrounding consumers and we would be at a huge disadvantage, including disproportionately bearing the expenses without a proportionate share of the benefits,” state Rep. John Kowalko, D-Newark, a long-time critic of Delmarva stated in a social media post. “I urged the Delaware Public On Monday, the companies issued the following joint statement: “We have now received the commission’s order, and we remain convinced the decision fails to recognize the substantial immediate and longterm benefits of our merger proposal to citizens, businesses and communities in the District of Columbia. We believe our merger proposal is in the public interest, and we will continue working to complete the merger, which all other jurisdictions have approved. Not completing our merger would deny customers in the District of Columbia – as well as Delaware, Maryland and New Jersey – hundreds of millions of dollars in direct financial benefits, improved reliability and storm response, renewable energy projects, and commitments that will preserve their local utility’s role as a strong community partner and contributor to economic growth.

As data breaches have increased in frequency and severity, protecting confidential information requires businesses to evolve from merely taking prevention measures to thoughtful planning designed to miti- gate the consequences when an incident occurs. The Young Conaway practice helps clients develop strategies to manage the risks of data-security incidents and prepare their businesses to quickly and effectively respond to, mitigate, and recover from events, according to a release. “We’ve been addressing data-protection issues across a variety of contexts for our clients for several years,” said Sara Beth Kohut, co-chair for the team. “Our attorneys support businesses at every stage of the process, whether that’s planning to reduce and manage risk or dealing with the aftermath of an information-security incident.” Young Conaway’s team includes litigators from multiple practice areas who can assist clients in preventing or successfully navigating any lawsuits and regulatory actions which might occur when confidential data is breached. “Our depth and variety of industry experience enables our team to address each client’s unique data-protection issue,” said Jim Lennon, who will also chair the practice. “Whether that involves drafting policies and procedures, or advising the board on their fiduciary duties, our attorneys have the depth and skills to meet those needs.” Delaware PSC joins governor in opposing funding formula for nuke plant power line The Delaware Public Service Commission joined Gov. Jack Markell in opposing the funding scheme for a power line project that puts much of the financial burden on Delaware electric customers. The PSC Monday announced it is filing a Federal Power Act Section 206 Complaint Filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The complaint alleges that the proposed cost allocation from grid operator PJM is unjust, unreasonable and wholly inconsistent with cost-causation principles and legal precedent requiring the allocation of transmission project costs to be “roughly commensurate” with the benefits of the project. The PSC and Markell have claimed the project would mainly benefit electric customers outside the state. The proposed cost allocation would require Delmarva Peninsula electric customers, including all customers in Delaware, to pay almost 90 percent of the cost to resolve system stability issues related to generation at New Jersey’s Artificial Island nuclear complex. Without some relief, Delaware ratepayer transmission costs would increase by an estimated 25-30 percent by 2018. “The State of Delaware cannot just accept a PJM tariff approved cost allocation when it is patently unfair and inequitable to Delaware ratepayers,” said PSC chairman Dallas Winslow.
