In conjunction with the nominations, Eucalyptus requested it be provided with notification of any deficiencies in the nominations prior to 5 p.m. (Pacific time) on August 12, 2026 in order to remedy them expeditiously. Having received no such correspondence, Eucalyptus is left to infer in good faith that the nominations are in good order and therefore have been accepted.

The nominees are: Sandra Bates, Dusan Petkovic, Michael Horner, and Jon Christian ("JC") Evensen, with profiles detailing their extensive experience below:
