Dear Charles McFeaters:

In a telephone conversation on July 8 , 2024, Todd Fish, Senior Operations Engineer, and Steven Hamler, Licensed Operator Requalification Program Lead, made arrangements for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) to inspect the licensed operator requalification program at the Hope Creek facility.
