Mr. John Dinelli, Site Vice President

Entergy Operations, Inc.

Killona, LA 70057-0751

SUBJECT: WATERFORD STEAM ELECTRIC STATION, UNIT 3 - NOTIFICATION OF

CYBER SECURITY INSPECTION (NRC INSPECTION

REPORT 05000382/2018410) AND REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

Dear Mr. Dinelli:

On November 5, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin an inspection

in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71130.10P, Cyber Security, Revision 0, at the

Waterford Steam Electric Station, Unit 3 (Waterford 3). This inspection evaluates and verifies

your ability to meet the full implementation requirements of the NRCs Cyber Security Rule,

Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 73, Section 54, Protection of Digital

Computer and Communication Systems and Networks. The onsite portion of the inspection will

take place during the weeks of November 5 and November 26, 2018.

Experience has shown that these 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. The document request has been divided into four

groups. The first group specifies information necessary to assist the team in choosing the focus

areas (i.e., sample set) to be inspected in accordance with the cyber security inspection

procedure. This information should be made available using passive media (i.e. CD, DVD) and

delivered to the regional office no later than August 13, 2018. The inspection team will review

this information and by the end of the planned information gathering visit, October 11, 2018, will

identify the specific items that should be provided for review.

The second group of requested documents will assist the team in their evaluation of the critical

systems and critical digital assets, defensive architecture, and the areas of the cyber security

plan selected for inspection. This information will be requested for review in the regional office

prior to the inspection by October 22, 2018.

The third group of requested documents consists of those items that the team will review or

need access to, during the inspection. Please have this information available by the first day of

the onsite inspection, November 5, 2018.

The fourth group of information is necessary to aid the 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.

J. Dinelli 2

The lead inspector for this inspection is Greg Pick. We understand that our regulatory contact

for this inspection is Lillian Lori Brown. If there are any questions about the inspection or the

material requested, please contact the lead inspector at 817-200-1270 or by e-mail

at greg.pick@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 under 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.

This letter and its enclosure will be made available for public inspection and copying at

http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRC Public Document Room in

accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

/RA/

I. Information Requested for In-Office Preparation

The initial request for information (i.e., first RFI) provides the team with the general

information necessary to select appropriate components and cyber security plan

elements to develop a site-specific inspection plan. The team will use the first set of

information requested to identify the list of critical systems and critical digital assets plus

operational and management security control portions of the Cyber Security Plan to be

chosen as the sample set required to be inspected during this inspection. The first

information request is specified in Table RFI #1. Provide the first set of information to

the team leader in the regional office by August 13, 2018, or sooner, to facilitate the

selection of the specific items that will be reviewed during the onsite inspection weeks.

The required Table RFI #1 information shall be provided on passive media (i.e. CD

or DVD) to the lead inspector by August 13, 2018. Please provide four copies of each

media submitted (i.e., one for each inspector/contractor). The preferred file format for all

lists is a searchable Excel spreadsheet file on a CD or DVD. The files should be

indexed and hyperlinked to facilitate efficient review. If you have any questions

regarding this information, please contact the inspection team leader as soon as

possible.
