ACCEPTANCE REVIEW RESULTS FOR CYBER SECURITY IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE DEVIATION LICENSE AMENDMENT REQUEST (TAC NO. ME9347, 8, 9)

By letter dated August 10, 2012, Arizona Public Service, the licensee, submitted a license amendment for Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station.

The purpose of this e-mail is toprovide the results of the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff's acceptance review of this amendment request.

The acceptance review was performed to determine if there is sufficient technical information in scope and depth to allow the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review.

The acceptance review is also intended to identifywhether the application has any readily apparent information insufficiencies in its characterization of the regulatory requirements or the licensing basis of the plant.

The NRC staff has reviewed your application and concluded that it does provide technical information in sufficient detail to enable the NRC staff to complete its detailed technical review and made an independent assessment regarding the acceptability of the proposed amendment in terms of regulatory requirements and the protection of public health and safety and the environment.

Given the lesser scope and depth of the acceptance reviewas compared to the detailed technical review, there may be instances in which issues that impact the NRC staff's ability to complete the detailed technical review are identified despite completion of an adequate acceptance review.

If additional information is needed,you will be advised by separate correspondence.

If you have any questions, please contact me.
