In Reference 5, Florida Power & Light (FPL) submitted the request to amend the Cyber Security Plan for St. Lucie Units 1 and 2 to change the implementation date for Milestone 8. The Cyber Security Plan and implementation schedule were previously provided in References 1 and 2 and approved by the NRC in References 3 and 4.

However, Reference 5 conservatively designated all of Attachment 1 as Security-Related Information to be withheld from the public. This letter revises the Attachments to allow additional portions to be released to the public.

This submittal revision is considered editorial in nature and the original no significant hazards evaluation remains bounding.

Attachment 1 transmitted herewith contains security-related information 001 to be withheld under 10 CFR 2.390. When separated from this transmittal, Florida Power & Light Companythe remaining transmittal document is decontrolled.

2. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION

L-2014-271 Attachment 2 Page 2 of 3 REGULATORY EVALUATION 1.1 Applicable Regulatory Requirements/Criteria 10 CFR 73.54 requires licensees to maintain and implement a Cyber Security Plan (CSP). St. Lucie Units 1 and 2, Facility Operating Licenses (FOLs) Nos.

DPR-67 and NPF-16, respectively, include a Physical Protection license condition that requires FPL to fully implement and maintain in effect all provisions of the Commission-approved CSP, including changes made pursuant to the authority of 10 CFR 50.90 and 10 CFR 50.54(p).

1.2 No Significant Hazards Consideration Determination FPL is requesting approval of changes to St. Lucie Units 1 and 2, FOLs Nos.

DPR-67 and NPF-16, respectively to revise the Physical Protection license condition as it relates to the Cyber Security Plan. This change includes a proposed deviation to the Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule and a proposed revision to the St. Lucie FOLs to include the proposed deviation.

Specifically, FPL proposes to change the completion date for full implementation (Milestone 8) of the Cyber Security Plan.

FPL has evaluated whether or not a significant hazards consideration is involved with the proposed amendment by focusing on the three standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92, "Issuance of Amendment," as described below:

(1) Does the proposed change involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed change to the Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule is administrative in nature. The change does not alter accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, tested, or inspected. The proposed change does not require any plant modifications which affect the performance capability or the structures, systems and components relied upon to mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents and has no impact on the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated. Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant increase in the probability or consequences of an accident previously evaluated.

(2) Does the proposed change create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated?

Response: No.

The proposed change to the Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule is administrative in nature. This proposed change does not alter

L-2014-271 Attachment 2 Page 3 of 3 accident analysis assumptions, add any initiators, or affect the function of plant systems or the manner in which systems are operated, maintained, modified, tested, or inspected. The proposed change does not require any plant modifications which affect the performance capability of the structures, systems and a component relied upon to mitigate the consequences of postulated accidents and does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated. Therefore, the proposed change does not create the possibility of a new or different kind of accident from any accident previously evaluated.

(3) Does the proposed change involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety?

Response: No.

Plant safety margins are established through limiting conditions of operation, limiting safety systems settings and safety limits specified in the technical specifications. The proposed change to the Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule is administrative in nature. Because there is no change in these established safety margins as result of this change, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety. Therefore, the proposed change does not involve a significant reduction in a margin of safety.

Based on the above, FPL concludes that the proposed change presents no significant hazards consideration under the standards set forth in 10 CFR 50.92(c) and, accordingly, a finding of "no significant hazards consideration" is justified.

1.3 Conclusion Based on the considerations described above, (1) there is reasonable assurance that the health and safety of the public will not be endangered by operation in the proposed manner, (2) such activities will be in compliance with the Commission's regulations and (3) the issuance of amendments will not be inimical to the common defense and security or to the health and safety of the public.

2. ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATION The proposed amendment provides a change to the Cyber Security Plan implementation schedule. The proposed amendment meets the eligibility criterion for a categorical exclusion set forth in 10 CFR 51.22(c)(12). Therefore, pursuant to 10 CFR 51.22(b), no environmental impact statement or environmental assessment need be prepared in connection with the issuance of this amendment.
