Dear Mr. Nazar:

The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)

Region II (RII) staff will conduct an inspection of the Cyber Security Milestones 1-7 requirements specified by the conditions of your operating license at the St Lucie Plant on December 9 - 13, 2013. The inspection team will be led by Mr. Jigar Patel, Reactor Inspector, of the NRC RII office. The team will be composed of personnel from the NRC RII office and personnel from the NRC office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response (NSIR). The inspection will be conducted in accordance with Temporary Instruction (TI) 2201/004, Inspection of Implementation of Interim Cyber Security Milestones 1-7. The TI inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to meet the interim milestone requirements of the NRCs Cyber Security Rule, Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 73, Section 54, Protection of Digital Computer and Communication Systems and Networks.

During a telephone conversation on July 30, 2013, Mr. Patel confirmed with Mr. D. Checkitt of your staff, arrangements for an information-gathering site visit and a one-week onsite inspection. The schedule is as follows:

  • Information gathering visit: November 5 - 7, 2013
  • Onsite inspection: December 9 - 13, 2013 The purpose of the information gathering visit is to: (1) obtain information and documentation needed to support the TI inspection; (2) become familiar with the St Lucie Plant Cyber Security Program and plant layout; and (3) arrange administrative details, such as office space, availability of knowledgeable office personnel and to ensure unescorted site access privileges.

OFFICIAL USE ONLY - SECURITY RELATED INFORMATION M. Nazar 2 In order to assure a productive TI inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents needed to ensure the inspectors are adequately prepared. These documents have been divided into three groups (I, II, & III). Group I lists information necessary to aid the inspectors in planning for the TI inspection prior to the information gathering visit. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector via mail no later than October 8, 2013. Group II lists information and possible areas for discussion necessary to assist the inspectors during the TI inspection. It is requested this information be available during the information gathering visit (November 5, 2013). Group III consists of those items that the inspectors will review, or need access to, during the TI inspection. Group III also lists the information necessary to aid the inspectors in tracking questions and answers identified as a result of the TI inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector as the information is generated during the TI 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 TI inspection.

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.

Your cooperation and support during this inspection will be appreciated. If you have questions concerning this inspection, or the inspection team's information or logistical needs, please contact Mr. Patel at (404) 997-4577, or me at (404) 997-4511.
