SUBJECT:
ENDORSEMENT OF ADDENDUM 1 TO NEI 08-09, CYBER SECURITY PLAN FOR NUCLEAR POWER REACTORS, REVISION 6, DATED APRIL 2010
Dear Ms. Perkins-Grew,
In your letter dated March 7, 2017 (Agencywide Documents Access and Management System (ADAMS) Accession No. ML17079A424), you requested that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff review and endorse the Nuclear Energy Institutes (NEIs)
Addendum 1 to guidance document NEI 08-09, Cyber Security Plan for Nuclear Power Reactors, Revision 6, dated April 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML101180437). The purpose of this Addendum is to enhance the clarity and consistency in implementation of licensees cyber security plans. The Addendum also provides support to the NRC in our oversight activities.
The NRC found NEI 08-09, Revision 6 acceptable for use (with exceptions that are applicable) in a letter dated May 5, 2010 (ADAMS Accession No. ML101190371). The primary focus of NEI 08-09, Revision 6 was to provide an alternate cyber security plan template for use by licensees to comply with the requirements of 10 CFR 73.54.
The NRC staff has reviewed Addendum 1 and confirms that the changes proposed in the document do not decrease the effectiveness of the cyber security plan provided in NEI 08-09, and acceptable for use by industry. Licensees remain responsible for reviewing changes made to their Commission approved Cyber Security Plan in accordance with the requirements of 10 CFR 50.54(p).
If you have any questions, please contact James Beardsley at (301) 287-0908 or james.beardsley@nrc.gov.
Sincerely,
/RA/
James Andersen, Director Division of Physical and Cyber Security Policy Office of Nuclear Security and Incident Response
