Dear Ms. Atack:
The purpose of this letter is to submit proposed changes to SEC-18-0002, Information System Security Plan (ISSP) for Oak Ridge, TN; Piketon, OH; and Bethesda, MD, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) for review and approval. The proposed changes were determined not to decrease the effectiveness of the Security Programs/Plans in accordance with 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 70.32; however, were determined to be a substantive change in accordance with 10 CFR 95.19 and requires NRCs prior review and approval to support American Centrifuge Operating, LLCs (ACO) authority to continue processing classified information under the High Assay Low Enriched Uranium Demonstration Program.
provides a detailed description, justification, and ACOs significance determination for the proposed changes to SEC-18-0002 being submitted under Enclosure 2.
Enclosures 1 and 2 contain Security-Related Information and, in accordance with the guidance provided by the DOE, contain Official Use Only information. Therefore, ACO requests these enclosures be withheld from public disclosure pursuant to 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1). Additionally, has been determined, in accordance with the guidance provided by the DOE, to contain Export Controlled Information and must be protected from disclosure per the requirements of 10 CFR Part 810.
