Dear Mr. Travis,

Attached you will find the Document Request Letter associated with the NRC upcoming RP inspection for the weeks of April 4-8, 2022 and April 18-22, 2022. Based on a telephone call held on February 15, 2022 with you, it is my understanding that you will be supporting our inspection. Please note that we are looking to gain access to the files requested by no later than March 27, 2022 so the inspection team can prepare properly for the inspection. Feel free to call me at 404-997-4736 or e-mail me at jose.diaz@nrc.gov if you have any questions.
