SUBJECT:

MID-CYCLE PERFORMANCE REVIEW AND INSPECTION PLAN - HOPE CREEK GENERATING STATION

Dear Mr. Joyce:

On August 10, 2010, the NRC staff completed its performance review of Hope Creek Generating Station (Hope Creek). Our technical staff reviewed performance indicators (Pis) for the most recent quarter and inspection results for the period from July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010. The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our assessment of your safety performance during this period and our plans for future inspections at your facility.

This performance review and enclosed inspection plan do not include security information. A separate letter designated and marked as "Official Use Only--Security Information" will include the security cornerstone review and resultant inspection plan.

Plant performance for the most recent quarter at Hope Creek was within the Licensee Response column of the NRC's Action Matrix, based on all inspection findings being classified as having very low safety significance (Green) and all Pis indicating performance at a level requiring no additional NRC oversight (Green). Therefore, we plan to conduct reactor oversight process (ROP) baseline inspections at your facility.

The enclosed inspection plan details the inspections, less those related to physical protection scheduled throug h December 31, 2011. The inspection plan is provided to allow for the resolution of any scheduling conflicts and personnel availability issues well in advance of inspector arrival onsite. Routine resident inspections are not listed due to their ongoing and continuous nature. The inspections in the last nine months of the inspection plan are tentative and may be revised at the end-of-cycle review.

If circumstances arise that cause us to change this inspection plan, we will contact you to discuss the change as soon as possible. Please contact me at 61 0-337 -5069 with any questions you may have regarding this letter or the inspection plan.

T. Joyce 2 In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390 of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy ofthis letter and its enclosure will be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's document system (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).
