SUBJECT: DRESDEN NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNITS 2 AND 3 NOTIFICATION TO
PERFORM AN INSPECTION OF TEMPORARY INSTRUCTION 2201/004,
INSPECTION OF IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERIM CYBER SECURITY
MILESTONES 1 - 7 AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION INSPECTION
REPORT NUMBER 05000237/2014405; 05000249/2014405
Dear Mr. Pacilio:
On February 10, 2014, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin an inspection
of Temporary Instruction (TI) 2201/004 at your Dresden Nuclear Power Station, Units 2 and 3.
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.
In accordance with 10 CFR 73.54, each nuclear power plant licensee was required to submit a
proposed cyber security plan (CSP) and implementation schedule for NRC approval. On
December 14, 2009, by letter (ML093080517) to the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI), the NRC
provided their expectations for the proposed implementation schedule. On January 5, 2011, by
letter (ML110060093) to the NRC, NEI issued an initial Template for the Cyber Security Plan
Implementation Schedule (ML110060097). On February 28, 2011, by letter (ML110600206) to
the NRC, NEI provided a revised, Template for the Cyber Security Plan Implementation
Schedule. The purpose of the letters attachment was to provide the licensee with a generically
written template to develop their proposed CSP implementation schedule. Utilization of the
generic template required the licensee to make conforming changes to ensure the submitted
schedule accurately accounted for site-specific activities. Based on an NRC technical review
(ML110070348), the template was found acceptable to develop the licensees CSP
implementation schedule (i.e., Milestones 1 through 8). On March 31, 2011, by letter
(ML110940225) to the NRC, Exelon provided a revised CSP and implementation schedule that
accounted for the site-specific activities. On August 10, 2011, by letter (ML111861341), the
NRC issued an amendment that approved the Dresden Nuclear Power Station CSP and
associated implementation schedule. In addition, the amendment revised the existing facility
operating license condition regarding physical protection to require the station to fully implement
and maintain in effect all provisions of the NRC-approved CSP.

The subject TI inspection provides a programmatic level review and verification of the licensees
site-specific implementation of Interim Milestones 1 through 7. The schedule for the onsite TI
Inspection for the Interim Milestones 1 through 7 is as follows:
- Information Gathering Visit: January 27 - 31, 2014; and
- Cyber Security TI Inspection: February 10 - 14, 2014.
The purpose of the information gathering visit is to: (1) obtain information and documentation
needed to support the TI inspection; (2) become familiar with your 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.
In order to assure a productive TI inspection, we have enclosed a request for documents
needed to ensure that the inspectors are adequately prepared. These documents have been
divided into four groups. The first group lists information necessary to aid the inspectors in
planning for the TI inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead
inspector via mail or electronically no later than January 13, 2014. The second group also 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
(January 27, 2014). The third group of requested documents consists of those items that the
inspectors will review, or need access to, during the TI inspection. Please have this information
available by the first day of the onsite inspection week (February 10, 2014). The fourth group
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.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Dr. Stuart Sheldon. We understand that our
regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. Dean Walker of your organization. If there are any
questions about the TI inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at
(630) 829-9727 or via e-mail at stuart.sheldon@nrc.gov.
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.
