Ill . and Zion During the first half of the year all Edison nuclear plants generated more than 14 billion kwh. accouting for nearly 43 percent of the utility's net power output to northern Illinois consumers Each billion kilowatthours of electricity produced by nuclear units has the effect of displacing more than 500,000 tons of coal, or 75 million gallons of fuel oil This results in fuel cost savings of between $10 million and $12 million, the company said DECLARES DIVIDEND Following the annual meeting of shareholders, the board of directors of Modine declared a quarterly dividend of 35 cents per share on the outstanding capital stock payable Sept 12, 1978, to all shareholders of record Sept 1. 1978 The directors also reelected the officers, including E E Richter, president and chief executive officer Plans to install a statewide computerized record and billing system by mid-1981 to streamline customer service and record keeping have been announced by General Telephone, according to C C. Merritt Relvidere division manager In preparation for the system, it will be necessary for the company to close the eller office at 3810 E Wonder ,ake road in Wonder l^ake The computerized system will store all customer service and billing records for quick recall. Merritt said "With our current filing system, it takes about 35 seconds just to locate a customer's record, and duplicates must be kept by different work groups. When the new system has been in­ stalled, authorized employees in any work group can recall specific information on a video screen within five seconds," he said G e n e r a l T e l e p h o n e customers will be able to call and get faster answers to any service or billing question, Merritt added New service orders or changes to existing service can be made quickly, and all work groups involved are automatically notified via high-speed teletype machines of the new or changed service. "For example," Merritt said, "let's say that a new resident calls us wanting telephone service The employee an­ swering the phone enters the necessary information into the computer system via a typewriter-like keyboard Monthly service charges, in­ cluding taxes, are instantly calculated by the computer, and this information is given to the customer while he or she is still on the phone At the same time, the system automatically notifies our switching office and supply department of the order so that service can be established and the phones installed. It saves the customer time and our employees a lot of paperwork!"
