Harbor of Refuge Lighthouse on
Lewes Breakwater will be turned
into an unnamed automatic light,
the Coast Guard at Gloucester, N.
j., has announced.
Coast Guard electronics special
| lists will lay submarine cable
from the Delaware mainland by
which the light will be operated.
It will permit the navigation aid
to be operated by remote control
from shore without any personnel
stationed at the lighthouse.
The Coast Guard said that the
remote control installation is part
of a program to convert manual
light stations wherever possible,
to automatic operation.
A Coast Guard spokesman said
that automatic operation is less
expensive and that electric power
furnished from the mainland is
considered to be more reliable
than the present source at the
lighthouse.
The Coast Guard said plans call
for the light to be made auto
matte sometime within the next
four months.
The light is a familiar spot to
| fishermen, many of whom have
benefited by friendly fishing tips
from the crew stationed at the
Breakwater beacon.
