Dear Sir or Madam:

In Reference 1, Entergy Operations, Inc. (Entergy) submitted requests for amendments to the operating licenses for Indian Point Generating Units 1, 2, and 3 (IP1, IP2, and IP3) requesting NRC approval of the Indian Point Energy Center (IPEC) Cyber Security Plan. In accordance with the commitment in Reference 4, Entergy is revising Sections 2.1 "Scope and Purpose" and 4.3, "Defense-In-Depth Protective Strategies," to address clarifications with respect to data diodes/air gaps and emergency plan/preparedness as described in the request for additional information (RAI) responses provided in reference 4. Subsequent to the submittal of these RAI responses, the NRC issued additional generic RAls on the IPEC Cyber Security Plan via Reference 5. Entergy's response to these RAls is provided in . contains proposed marked-up operating license pages for the Physical Protection license condition for IP1, IP2, and IP3 to include the IPEC Cyber Security Plan. contains the proposed revised operating license pages. The marked-up pages in Attachment 2 and the revised pages in Attachment 3 replace, in their entirety, the pages previously submitted in Reference 1. contains the Entergy Operations, Inc.
