DRAFT DRAFT OFFICE OF NUCLEAR SECURITY AND INCIDENT RESPONSE REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CHANGES TO CYBER SECUR ITY IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE MILESTONES 3 AND 6 PPL SUSQUEHANNA, LLC ALLEGHANY ELECTRIC COOPERATION, INC.

DOCKET NUMBERS 50

-388 SUSQUEHANNA STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNITS 1 AND 2 By letter dated April 30, 2012, 1 PPL Susquehanna, LLC (PPL) submitted a license amendment request for Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, Units 1 and 2 (SSES).

The proposed amendment would make changes to the cyber security implementation schedule for Milestone 3 and 6. Specifically, for Milestone 3

, PPL proposes to install a deterministic data diode appliance between Layers 3 and 2 instead of between Layers 3 and 4 with no change to the approved implementation date.

For Milestone 6, PPL proposes to implement the technical controls for critical digital assets (CDAs) that could adversely impact the design function of physical security target set equipment by the approved implementation date, and to implement the operational and management controls for CDAs in conjunction with the full implementation of the Cyber Security Program.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff has reviewed the information provided by the licensee and has determined that the following additional information is needed in order to complete the review.

Milestone 3 of the Cyber Security Implementation Schedule implements installation of a deterministic one

-way device between lower level devices and higher level devices as described in Section 4.3, "Defense

-in-Depth Protective Strategies" of the Cyber Security Plan (CSP). In the April 30, 2012, request PPL states that (emphasis added)

"[f]or non-security critical digital assets (CDAs), the current implementation schedule and cyber security plan describe deterministic devices between Layers 3 and 4 with firewalls between Layers 1 and 2 and between Layers 2 and 3.

" PPL goes on to describe that the proposed change to the cyber defensive strategy would install a deterministic device between Layers 2 and 3 with firewalls between the other layers.

The NRC staff would like to clarify that this proposed change does not only impact Milestone 3, but also directly impacts the CSP, Section 4.3, "Defense

-in-Depth Protective Strategies." Will security CDAs and safety CDAs (both residing in Layer 4) continue to be isolated from each other as described in the existing CSP?
