Monticello and Prairie Island Units 1 and 2 - Acceptance for Review of License Amendment Request for Cyber Security Plan Implementaion Milestone 8 (TAC Nos. MF3165, MF3166, and MF3167)

By letter dated November 27, 2013, as supplemented by letter dated May 5, 2014 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System Accession No. ML13333B674 and ML14126A727, respectively), Northern States Power Company, a Minnesota corporation, doing business as Xcel Energy (NSPM or the licensee), submitted a license amendment request pertaining to the Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule, including a proposed revision to the existing Physical Protection license condition for Monticello Nuclear Generating Plant, and Prairie Island Nuclear Generating Plant, Units 1 and 2. The purpose of this email is to provide the results of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staffs acceptance review of this amendment request. The acceptance review was performed to determine if there is sufficient technical information in scope and depth to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review. The acceptance review is also intended to identify whether the application has any readily apparent information insufficiencies in its characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.

Consistent with Section 50.90 of 10 CFR, an amendment to the license (including the technical specifications) must fully describe the changes requested, and following as far as applicable, the form prescribed for original applications. Section 50.34 of 10 CFR addresses the content of technical information required. This section stipulates that the submittal address the design and operating characteristics, unusual or novel design features, and principal safety considerations.

The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concluded that it does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and make an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed amendment in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment. Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance review as compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staffs ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified despite completion of an adequate acceptance review. You will be advised of any further information needed to support the NRC staffs detailed technical review by separate correspondence.

If you have any questions, please contact me, at (301) 415-2855.

Sincerely, Scott P. Wall, PMP, LSS BB, BSP Senior Project Manager Plant Licensing Branch III-1 Division of Operating Reactor Licensing Office of Nuclear Reactor Regulation 301.415.2855 Scott.Wall@nrc.gov 1
