SUBJECT:
DAVIS-BESSE NUCLEAR POWER STATION, UNIT 1 INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY FULL IMPLEMENTATION INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM INSPECTION 05000346/2020403
Dear Mr. Bezilla:
On July 27, 2020, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin an inspection in accordance with Inspection Procedure 71130.10P Cyber-Security, issued May 15, 2017, at your Davis-Besse Nuclear Power Station. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to meet full implementation requirements of the NRCs Cyber-Security Rule, Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 73, Section 54, Protection of Digital Computer and Communication Systems and Networks. The onsite portion of the inspection will take place during the weeks of July 27, 2020, and August 10, 2020.
Experience has shown that these inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. In order to minimize the inspection impact on the site and to ensure a productive inspection for both parties, we have enclosed a request for documents needed for the inspection. These documents have been divided into four groups.
- The first group specifies information necessary to assist the inspection team in choosing the focus areas (i.e., sample set) to be inspected by the Cyber-Security Inspection Procedure. This information should be made available via compact disc and delivered to the regional office no later than May 29, 2020. The inspection team will review this information and, by June 12, 2020, will request the specific items that should be provided for review.
- The second group of additional requested documents will assist the inspection team in the evaluation of the critical systems and critical digital assets, defensive architecture, and the areas of your plants Cyber-Security Program selected for the Cyber-Security Inspection. This information will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by July 10, 2020.
- The third group of requested documents consists of those items that the inspection team will review, or need access to, during the inspection. Please have this information available by the first day of the onsite inspection, July 27, 2020.
- The fourth group of information is necessary to aid the inspection team in tracking issues identified as a result of the inspection. It is requested that this information be provided to the lead inspector as the information is generated during the 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 inspection.
The lead inspector for this inspection is Alan Dahbur. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is Gerry Wolf of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at 630-829-9810 or via e-mail at Alan.Dahbur@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.
This letter and its enclosure will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.
Sincerely,
/RA/
Alan Dahbur, Senior Reactor Inspector Engineering Branch 3 Division of Reactor Safety
