SUBJECT: V.C. SUMMER NUCLEAR STATION - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE
              CYBER-SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM
              INSPECTION 05000395/2022401
Dear Mr. Stoddard:
On June 27, 2022, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a baseline
inspection, in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71130.10 Cyber-Security, Revision 0,
at your V.C. Summer Nuclear Station. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify
your ability to provide assurance that your digital computer and communication systems and
networks associated with safety, security, or emergency preparedness (SSEP) functions are
adequately protected against cyber-attacks, in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR) 73.54 and the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved
cyber security plan (CSP). The onsite portion of the inspection will take place during the week
of June 27, 2022.
Experience has shown that baseline 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 IP. This information should
be made available electronically no later than April 8, 2022. The inspection team will review
this information and, by April 18, 2022, 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 (CSs/CDAs), defensive
architecture, and the areas of the licensees CSP selected for the cyber-security inspection.
This information will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by
May 30, 2022, as identified above.
 
D. Stoddard                                        2
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 27, 2022.
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 William Monk. We understand that our regulatory
contact for this inspection is Michael Moore, Licensing Manager of your organization. If there
are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead
inspector at (404) 997-4579 or via e-mail at william.monk@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.
In accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding,
of the NRC's "Rules of Practice," a copy of this letter and its enclosure will be available
electronically for public inspection in the NRCs Public Document Room or from the Publicly
Available Records (PARS) component of the NRC's Agencywide Documents Access and
Management System (ADAMS). ADAMS is accessible from the NRC Web site at
http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html (the Public Electronic Reading Room).

I.    Information Requested for In-Office Preparation
      The initial request for information (i.e., first RFI) concentrates on providing the inspection
      team with the general information necessary to select appropriate components and CSP
      elements to develop a site-specific inspection plan. The first RFI is used to identify the
      list of critical systems and critical digital assets (CSs/CDAs) plus operational and
      management (O&M) security control portions of the CSP to be chosen as the sample
      set required to be inspected by the cyber-security IP. The first RFIs requested
      information is specified below in Table: RFI #1. The Table RFI #1 information is
      requested to be provided electronically to the inspection team by April 8, 2022, or
      sooner, to facilitate the selection of the specific items that will be reviewed during the
      onsite inspection weeks.
      The inspection team will examine the returned documentation from the first RFI and
      identify/select specific systems and equipment (e.g., CSs/CDAs) to provide a more
      focused follow-up request to develop the second RFI. The inspection team will submit
      the specific systems and equipment list to your staff by April 18, 2022, which will identify
      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. We request that the additional information provided from the second
      RFI be made available to the inspection team by May 30, 2022. All requests for
      information shall follow the guidance document U.S. NRC - Guidance Document for
      Development of the Request for Information (RFI) and Notification Letter for Full
      Implementation of the Cyber-Security Inspection, referenced above.
