SUBJECT: R.E. GINNA NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, LL C - INFORMATION REQUEST FO R THE CYBER SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM INSPECTION 05000244/2022011
Dear Mr. Rhoades :
On April 25, 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a baseline inspection in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71130.10 Cyber Security, Revision 0 at your R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to meet the requirements of the NRCs Cyber Security Rule, Title 10 of th e Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 73, Section 54, Protection of Digital Computer and Communication Systems and Network The onsite portion of the inspection will take place April 25 - 29, 202 Experience has shown that bas eline inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staf In order to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for the inspectio These documents have been divided into four group The first group specifies information necessary to assist the inspection team in choosing the focus areas (i.e., sam ple set ) to be inspected by IP 71130.1 This informatio n should be made available either on an online repository (preferred) or digital media (CD/DVD) no later than January 31, 202 The inspection team will review this information and, by February 28, 2022, will request the specific item s that should be provided for review.
The se co nd group of additional requested documents will assist the inspection team in the evaluation of the critical systems and critical digital assets (CSs/CDAs), defensive architecture, and the areas of the licensees Cyber Security Program selected for the cyber security inspectio This inform ation will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by March 28, 2022, as identified abov The third group of requested documents consists of those items that the inspection team will review, or need access to, during the inspectio Please have this information available by the first day of the onsite inspection, April 25, 2022.
