_n tro duct nto 4:* The purpose of the Digital LAR Licensing Plan Update is to establish a regulatory framework that reduces the risk and uncertainty of licensing a digital LAR S:* We are now approximately 5 months prior to planned submittal date - need to freeze all guidance documents and requirements S:* Changes in guidance documents that occur after this date will be considered to extent practical (we can't hit a moving target)

  • o We'd like the staff to document its position with respect to this licensing plan 3

    • Note - in many instances the existing regulatory guidance documents endorsed IEEE Standards that have been recently revised
    • The policy of Oconee will be to state explicitly within the LAR the IEEE Standard to which the Digital RPS/ES Systems has been designed 8

.nergy Digital LAR Format and Con tent Guidance S:.

NEI 06-02 provides guidance for the basic format and content S:.

RG 1.206 provides guidance for the technical portion of the LAR 71 BTP 7-14 will be used to address Software QA

    • Comparison of RG to SRP identified differences 71 RG does not require auxiliary features or multi-unit stations to be addressed/SRP does

_Concerns in IEEE standard and.Regulatory Guidance do not apply to the Oconee RPS/ES modification

_Human factors considerations are to be addressed in Chapter 18 -

Oconee will address in LAR itself using the existing Oconee human factors process 9

Duke Cyber Security nWenergy Licensing May 1, 2007, meeting discussed cyber security Duke plans to submit two letters (AREVA & Duke) addressing cyber security requirements (labeled withhold from public disclosure pursuant to 2.390)

Submittal will be prior to RPS/ES LAR submittal and incorporated by reference as permitted by 10 CFR 50.32 S:.

Duke may request a separate SE that would permit use on not only the Oconee RPS/ES LAR submittals but also future Duke digital LAR submittals 10

Duke Energy Documir ent A vailability Existing regulatory guidance assumes that all design documents will be available at time of LAR submittal
