This inspection, conducted from January 28, through March 16, 2018, reviewed implementation of FENOC's Cyber Security Plan and security controls. Respectfully FENOC contests the NCV 05000334, 05000412/ 2018403-02 identified in Inspection Report 2018-403. A detailed assessment is presented in the attachment.
The inspection identified a Green finding and associated NCV of Beaver Valley Power Station (BVPS) facility operating license (FOL) condition 2.0 (BVPS Unit 1) and 2.E (BVPS Unit 2), and the approved cyber security plan (CSP) when FENOC failed to mitigate vulnerabilities and implement cyber security controls.
FENOC contests this violation. As demonstrated in the attachment, FENOC did correctly implement the NEI 13-10, Revision 6 methodology, did correctly assess and identify the referenced components at BVPS Unit 1 and Unit 2 as indirect, and did correctly evaluate and implement the appropriate cyber controls. Therefore, this violation is being contested.
