SUBJECT:

JAMES A. FITZPATRICK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT - NRC TEMPORARY INSTRUCTION 2201/004, "INSPECTION OF IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERIM CYBER SECURITY MILESTONES 1-7," REPORT 05000333/2015405

Dear Mr. Sullivan:

On March 19, 2015, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed a security temporary instruction inspection at your James A. FitzPatrick Nuclear Power Plant. The inspection covered the implementation of interim milestones associated with your cyber security program, as outlined in your approved cyber security plan (CSP) and described in Temporary Instruction (TI) 2201/004, "Inspection of Implementation of Interim Cyber Security Milestones 1-7." The enclosed inspection report documents the inspection results, which were discussed on March 19, 2015, with Mr. Steve Vercelli and other members of your staff.

The inspection examined activities conducted under your license as they relate to safety and compliance with the Commissions rules and regulations and with the conditions of your license related to the implementation of interim cyber security milestones. The inspection was conducted in accordance with NRC TI 2201/004. The team reviewed selected procedures and records, observed activities, and interviewed personnel.

The report documents one violation for which the NRC is exercising enforcement discretion.

The NRC is not taking enforcement action for this violation because it meets the criteria established in an NRC Memorandum from Barry C. Westreich, Director, Cyber Security Directorate, Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response, to each regional office and Director, Division of Reactor Safety, Subject: Enhanced Guidance for Licensee Near-Term Corrective Actions to Address Cyber Security Inspection Findings and Licensee Eligibility for

"Good-Faith" Attempt Discretion, dated July 1, 2013 (ADAMS Accession Number ML13178A203). Consistent with the NRC Memorandum, upon completion of all corrective actions, you are requested to provide written notification to the NRC's regional office as to the date of closure for the identified issues.

"Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter will be available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the Publicly Available Records (PARS) component of NRC's Agencywide Document 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). However, the material enclosed herewith contains Security-Related Information in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1) and its disclosure to unauthorized individuals could present a security vulnerability. Therefore, the material in the enclosure will not be made available electronically for public inspection in the NRC Public Document Room or from the PARS component of NRC's ADAMS. If you choose to provide a response and Security-Related Information is necessary to provide an acceptable response, 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). In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1)(ii), the NRC is waiving the affidavit requirements for your response.

Sincerely,

/RA/
