ENCLOSURE EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE 1.0
SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.90, Calvert Cliffs Nuclear Power Plant, LLC (CCNPP), Nine Mile Point Nuclear Station, LLC (NMPNS), and R.E. Ginna Nuclear Power Plant, LLC (Ginna) are requesting a change to their respective licenses in order to implement a Cyber Security Plan. A markup of a proposed sentence to be added to each existing physical protection license condition is included in Attachments 2 through 4.
We are also requesting approval of a Cyber Security Plan (Attachment 1), which is being submitted in accordance with 10 CFR 73.54.
The proposed Cyber Security Plan will be effective for CCNPP, NMPNS, and Ginna.
Included in this request is a Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule (Attachment 5).
2.0 DETAILED DESCRIPTION This license amendment request (LAR) includes a proposed sentence to be added to the existing physical protection license condition to require CCNPP, NMPNS, and Ginna to implement and maintain in effect the Commission-approved cyber security plan as required by 10 CFR 73.54, "Protection of digital computer and communication systems and networks." The regulations in 10 CFR 73.54 establish the requirements for a cyber security program. This regulation specifically requires each licensee currently licensed to operate a nuclear power plant under Part 50 of Title 10 to submit a cyber security plan. It also requires that each submittal include a proposed implementation schedule. An implementation schedule is included as Attachment 5. The background for this application is addressed by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Notice of Availability, 74 FR 13926, published on March 27, 2009.
3.0 TECHNICAL EVALUATION
Federal Register Notice 74 FR 13926 issued the final rule that amended 10 CFR Part 73. Cyber security requirements are codified as 10 CFR 73.54 and are designed to provide high assurance that digital computer and communication systems and networks are adequately protected against cyber attacks up to and including the design basis threat established by 10 CFR 73.1 (a)(1)(E)(v).
The proposed Cyber Security Plan (Attachment 1) conforms to the template provided in Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI) 08-09, Revision 6, except for the definition of cyber attack. That definition is taken from a NRC letter to the Nuclear Energy Institute, dated June 7, 2010. The Cyber Security Plan establishes how to achieve high assurance that nuclear power plant digital computer and communication systems and networks associated with the following are adequately protected against cyber attacks up to and including the design basis threat:
- 1.
Safety-related and important-to-safety functions,
- 2.
Security functions,
- 3.
Emergency preparedness functions including offsite communications, and
- 4.
Support systems and equipment which, if compromised, would adversely impact safety, security, or emergency preparedness functions.
The proposed cyber security plan is designed to achieve high assurance that the systems are protected from cyber attacks. The plan itself does not require any plant modifications. However, the plan does describe how plant modifications that involve digital computer systems are reviewed to provide high assurance of adequate protection against cyber attacks, up to and including the design basis threat as defined in the Rule. As required by 10 CFR 73.54, a proposed implementation schedule for the cyber security program is included in Attachment 5.
I
ENCLOSURE EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE This LAR includes the proposed change to the existing license condition for physical protection for CCNPP, Ginna, and NMPNS (Attachments 2, 3, and 4, respectively).
This change to the license condition is consistent with the requirement in Federal Register Notice 74 FR 13927 that "the cyber security plan will become part of the licensee's licensing basis in the same manner as other security plans."
The following wording is proposed to be inserted into the physical security license condition in the licenses for CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna:
"The licensee shall implement and maintain in effect the provisions of the Commission-approved Cyber Security Plan submitted by letter dated July 16, 2010."
4.0 REGULATORY EVALUATION
4.1 APPLICABLE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS/CRITERIA
'This LAR is submitted pursuant to 10 CFR 73.54 which requires licensees currently licensed to operate a nuclear power plant under 10 CFR Part 50 to submit a Cyber Security Plan, an implementation plan and a change. to the license basis as specified in 10 CFR 50.4 and 10 CFR 50.90.
4.2 SIGNIFICANT HAZARDS CONSIDERATION Constellation Energy Nuclear Group, LLC on behalf of CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna, is submitting. the attached Cyber Security Plan, an implementation plan and a change to the respective license bases for Nuclear Regulatory Commission review and approval.
The licensees have evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by assessing the change using the three criteria of 10 CFR 50.92 as discussed below:
Criterion 1: The proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The proposed change is required by 10 CFR 73.54. The Cyber Security Plan conforms to the template provided in NEI 08-09, Revision 6, with the exception of the definition of cyber attack, and provides a description of how the requirements of the rule will be implemented at CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna. The plan establishes the basis for the cyber security program for the three stations.
The proposed Cyber Security Plan does not require any plant modifications, alter the plant configuration, require new plant equipment to be installed, alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected. The plan establishes how to achieve high assurance that nuclear power plant digital computer and communication systems and networks associated with certain systems and functions are adequately protected against cyber attacks.
This protective function has no impact on the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
The proposed change to the license condition in the licenses of CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna adds a sentence to the existing license condition for physical protection to require implementation and maintenance of the Cyber Security Plan. This change is administrative and has no impact on the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
2
ENCLOSURE EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE Therefore, it is concluded that this change to the CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna license conditions does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.
Criterion 2: The proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The proposed change is required by 10 CFR 73.54. The Cyber Security Plan conforms to the template provided in NEI 08-09, Revision 6, with the exception of the definition of cyber attack and provides a description of how the requirements of the rule will be implemented at CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna. The plan establishes the basis for the cyber security program for the three stations.
The proposed Cyber Security Plan does not require any plant modifications, alter the plant configuration, require new plant equipment to be installed, alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected. The plan establishes how to achieve high assurance that nuclear power plant digital computer and communication systems and networks associated with certain systems and functions are adequately protected against cyber attacks. This protective function has no impact on the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
The proposed change to the license condition in the licenses of CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna adds a sentence to the existing license condition for physical protection to require implementation and maintenance of the Cyber Security Plan. This change is administrative and has no impact on the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.
Therefore, it is concluded that this change to the CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna license conditions does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any previously evaluated.
Criterion 3: The proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The margin of safety in this case is that the implementation of the Cyber Security Plan does not adversely affect systems or equipment important to the operation of the plant.
The proposed change is required by 10 CFR 73.54. The Cyber Security Plan conforms to the template provided in NEI 08-09, Revision 6, with the exception of the definition of cyber attack and provides a description of how the requirements of the rule will be implemented at CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna. The plan establishes the basis for the cyber security program for the three stations.
The plan establishes the basis for the cyber security program for the three stations and does not require any plant modifications, alter the plant configuration, require new plant equipment to be installed, alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected.
The plan establishes how to achieve high assurance that nuclear power plant digital computer and communication systems and networks associated 3
ENCLOSURE EVALUATION OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE with certain systems and functions are adequately protected against cyber attacks.
This protective function has no impact on the operation of vital systems or equipment. Therefore, the implementation of the proposed Cyber Security Plan does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
The proposed change to the license condition in the licenses of CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna adds a sentence to the existing license condition for physical protection to require implementation and maintenance of the Cyber Security Plan. This change is administrative and does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
Therefore, the proposed change to the CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna license conditions and implementation of the proposed Cyber Security Plan do not create a significant reduction in a margin of safety.
Based on the above, we conclude that the proposed change presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c), and accordingly, a finding of no significant hazards consideration is justified.
4.3 CONCLUSION
S In conclusion, based on the considerations discussed above:
(1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner; (2) such activities will be conducted in compliance with the Commission's regulations; and (3) the issuance of the amendment will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.
5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION
The proposed amendment establishes the licensing basis for a Cyber Security Program for CCNPP, NMPNS and Ginna and will be a part of each site's physical security plan. This proposed amendment will not involve (i) a significant hazards consideration, (ii) a significant change in the types or a significant increase in the amounts of any effluents that may be released offsite, or (iii) a significant increase in individual or cumulative occupational radiation exposure.
Accordingly, the proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(9).
Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of the amendment.
