SUBJECT: DONALD C. COOK NUCLEAR POWER PLANT, UNITS 1 AND 2

INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY FULL

IMPLEMENTATION INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM

INSPECTION 05000315/2021401; 05000316/2021401

Dear Mr. Gebbie:

On November 19, 2019, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) provided the

Donald C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2, an Information Request for the

Cyber-Security Full Implementation Inspection and Notification to Perform Inspection

05000315/2020410; 05000316/2020410 (ML19323F427). The onsite portion of this inspection

was to take place during the weeks of March 30, 2020, and April 13, 2020. However, because

of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) and potential related health concerns, the inspection

was delayed by the NRC.

Based on discussions with your staff for an acceptable date to perform this inspection, the NRC

has rescheduled this inspection. The onsite portion of the inspection will take place during the

weeks of June 7 and June 21, 2021. The inspection will be performed in accordance with

Inspection Procedure 71130.10P Cyber-Security, issued May 15, 2017, at your

Donald C. Cook Nuclear Power Plant, Units 1 and 2. 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.

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, the November 19, 2019, letter

(ML19323F427) enclosed a request for documents needed for the inspection. These

documents were divided into four groups.

The first group specified 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 and the specific items to be reviewed have been previously

provided to the regional office.

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 and the specific items to be reviewed have been previously

provided to the regional office.

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, June 7, 2021.

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 George M. Hausman. We understand that our

regulatory contact for this inspection is Kristen M. Harper of your organization. If there are any

questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at

630-829-9743 or via e-mail at George.Hausman@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/

Information Requested for In-Office Preparation

The initial request for information (i.e., first Request for Information (RFI)) concentrates

on providing the inspection team with the general information necessary to select

appropriate components and Cyber-Security Program elements to develop a

site-specific inspection plan. The first RFI is used to identify the list of critical systems

(CSs) and critical digital assets (CDAs) plus operational and management security

control portions of the Cyber-Security Program to be chosen as the sample set

required to be inspected by the Cyber-Security Inspection Procedure. The first RFIs

requested information is specified below in Table RFI #1. The Table RFI #1

information has been previously provided to the regional office to facilitate the selection

of the specific items that will be reviewed during the onsite inspection weeks.

The inspection team has examined the returned documentation from the first RFI and

identified/selected specific systems and equipment (e.g., CSs/CDAs) to provide a more

focused follow-up request to develop the second RFI. The inspection team has

previously provided the specific systems and equipment list to your staff which

identified the specific systems and equipment that will be utilized to evaluate the

CSs/CDAs, defensive architecture, and the areas of the licensees CSP selected for the

Cyber-Security Inspection. All requests for this information shall follow the

Table RFI #1 and the guidance document referenced above.
