SUBJECT:

NINE MILE POINT NUCLEAR STATION - CYBER SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000220/2019403 and 05000410/2019403

Dear Mr. Hanson:

On June 21, 2019, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station (NMP), Units 1 and 2. On the same day, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with Mr. Rob Kreider, NMP Plant Manager, and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report.

NRC inspectors documented two findings of very low safety significance (Green) in this report.

These findings involved violations of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy.

One cross-cutting aspect was assigned to a finding in the area of Problem Identification and Resolution and one cross-cutting aspect was assigned to a finding in the area of Human Performance. Specifically, because Exelon did not evaluate issues to ensure that resolutions address causes and extent of conditions commensurate with their safety significance [P.2], and Exelon did not implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority [H.5].

If you contest the violations or significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at NMP. In addition, if you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC, 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I and the NRC Resident Inspector at NMP.

Enclosure transmitted herewith contains Sensitive, Unclassified, Non-Safeguards Information. When separated from the Enclosure, the transmittal document is decontrolled. This letter will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

However, the enclosed report contains Security-Related Information, so the enclosed report will not be made publicly available in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1). If you choose to provide a response that contains Security-Related Information, please mark your entire response Security-Related Information-Withhold from Public Disclosure under 10 CFR 2.390 in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1) and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1). The NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii).

Sincerely,

/RA/
