SUBJECT:

TURKEY POINT NUCLEAR PLANT - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM INSPECTION 05000250/2023401 AND 05000251/2023401

Dear Mr. Coffey:

On January 30, 2023, 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 Turkey Point Nuclear Power Plant. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to provide assurance that your digital computer and communication systems and networks associated with safety, security, or emergency preparedness (SSEP) functions are adequately protected against cyber-attacks in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) 73.54 and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

approved cyber security plan (CSP). The onsite portion of the inspection will take place during the week of January 30, 2023.

Experience has shown that baseline inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. 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 inspection. These documents have been divided into four groups.

The first group specifies information necessary to assist the inspection team in choosing the focus areas (i.e., sample set) to be inspected by the cyber-security IP. This information should be made available electronically no later than November 25, 2022. The inspection team will review this information and, by December 9, 2022, will request the specific items that should be provided for review. The second 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 CSP selected for the cyber-security inspection. This information will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by January 13, 2023, as identified above.

October 19, 2022 The third group of requested documents consists of those items that the inspection team will review, or need access to, during the inspection. Please have this information available by the first day of the onsite inspection, January 30, 2023.

The fourth group of information is necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues identified as a result of the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector as the information is generated during the inspection. It is important that all of these documents are up to date and complete in order to minimize the number of additional documents requested during the preparation and/or the onsite portions of the inspection.

The lead inspector for this inspection is Melana Singletary. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is David Stoia, Regulatory Affairs Engineer of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at (404) 997-4572 or via e-mail at melana.singletary@nrc.gov.

This letter does not contain new or amended information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Existing information collection requirements were approved by the Office of Management and Budget, control number 3150-0011. The NRC may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for information or an information collection requirement unless the requesting document displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control number.

In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding, of the NRCs Rules of Practice, a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of the NRCs Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

Information Requested for In-Office Preparation The initial request for information (i.e., first RFI) concentrates on providing the inspection team with the general information necessary to select appropriate components and CSP elements to develop a site-specific inspection plan. The first RFI is used to identify the list of critical systems and critical digital assets (CSs/CDAs) plus operational and management (O&M) security control portions of the CSP to be chosen as the sample set required to be inspected by the cyber-security IP. The first RFIs requested information is specified below in Table RFI #1. The Table RFI #1 information is requested to be provided to the regional office by November 25, 2022, or sooner, to facilitate the selection of the specific items that will be reviewed during the onsite inspection weeks.

The inspection team will examine the returned documentation from the first RFI and identify/select specific systems and equipment (e.g., CSs/CDAs) to provide a more focused follow-up request to develop the second RFI. The inspection team will submit the specific systems and equipment list to your staff by December 9, 2022, which will identify the specific systems and equipment that will be utilized to evaluate the CSs/CDAs, defensive architecture, and the areas of the licensees CSP selected for the cyber-security inspection. We request that the additional information provided from the second RFI be made available to the regional office prior to the inspection by January 13, 2023. All requests for information shall follow the guidance document U.S. NRC - Guidance Document for Development of the Request for Information (RFI) and Notification Letter for Full Implementation of the Cyber-Security Inspection, referenced above.

The required Table RFI 1 information shall be provided electronically to the lead inspector by November 25, 2022. The preferred file format for all lists is a searchable Excel spreadsheet file. The information should be indexed and hyper-linked to facilitate ease of use. If you have any questions regarding this information, please call the inspection team leader as soon as possible.
