BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM INSPECTION 05000334/2018403 AND 05000412/2018403


SUBJECT: BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION, UNIT NOS. 1 AND 2 - CYBER SECURITY INSPECTION REPORT 05000334/2018403 and 05000412/2018403
==Dear Mr. Bologna:==
On January 29, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a baseline inspection in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71130.10 Cyber-Security, issued May 15, 2017 at the Beaver Valley Power Station, Units 1 and 2. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to meet 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 January 29-February 2, 2018, and February 12-16, 2018. 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 Inspection Procedure. This information should be made available via compact disc and delivered to the regional office no later than October 31, 2017. The inspection team will review this information and, by November 17, 2017, 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 your stations Cyber-Security Program selected for the cyber-security inspection. This information will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by December 11, 2017.
 
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, January 29, 2018. 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 Mr. David Werkheiser. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. David Wacker of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at 610-337-5316 or via e-mail at David.Werkheiser@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.
 
This letter and its enclosure will be available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRCs Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

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 Cyber-Security Program (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 to the regional office by October 31, 2017, 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 November 17, 2017, 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 regional office prior to the inspection by December 11, 2017. All requests for information shall follow the Table RFI #1 and the guidance document referenced above. The required Table RFI #1 information shall be provided on compact disc (CD) to the lead inspector by October 31, 2017. Please provide four copies of each CD submitted (i.e., one for each inspector/contactor). The preferred file format for all lists is a searchable Excel spreadsheet file on a CD. These CDs should be indexed and hyper-linked to facilitate ease of use. If you have any questions regarding this information, please call the inspection team leader as soon as possible.

On March 16, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) completed an inspection at Beaver Valley Power Station, Units 1 and 2. On March 16, 2018, the NRC inspectors discussed the results of this inspection with you and other members of your staff. The results of this inspection are documented in the enclosed report. NRC inspectors documented three findings of very low safety significance (Green) in this report. All three of these findings involved violations of NRC requirements. The NRC is treating these violations as non-cited violations (NCVs) consistent with Section 2.3.2.a of the Enforcement Policy. Three cross-cutting aspects were assigned to findings in the areas of Human Performance. Specifically, (1) Conservative Bias, because First Energy Nuclear Operating Company's (FENOC) decision-making practice did not emphasize prudent choices over those that are simply allowed [H.14]; (2) Change Management, because FENOC did not use a systematic process for evaluating and implementing change so that nuclear safety remains the overriding priority [H.3]; (3) Work Management, because FENOC did not implement a process of planning, controlling, and executing work activities such that nuclear safety is the overriding priority [H.5]. Enclosure transmitted herewith contains Sensitive, Unclassified, Non-Safeguards Information. When separated from the Enclosure, the transmittal document is decontrolled. If you contest the violations or significance of these NCVs, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your denial, to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I; the Director, Office of Enforcement; and the NRC Resident Inspector at Beaver Valley Power Station. In addition, if you disagree with a cross-cutting aspect assignment in this report, you should provide a response within 30 days of the date of this inspection report, with the basis for your disagreement, to the U. S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, ATTN: Document Control Desk, Washington, DC 20555-0001; with copies to the Regional Administrator, Region I, and the NRC Resident Inspector at Beaver Valley Power Station. This letter will be made available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and the NRC's Public Document Room in accordance with Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), Part 2.390, "Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding." However, the enclosed report contains Security-Related Information, so the enclosed report will not be made publically available in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1). If you choose to provide a response that contains Security-Related Information, please mark your entire response "Security-Related Information-Withhold from public disclosure under 10 CFR 2.390", in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390(d)(1) and follow the instructions for withholding in 10 CFR 2.390(b)(1).

SUBJECT:

BEAVER VALLEY POWER STATION UNITS 1 AND 2 - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY BASELINE INSPECTION NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM INSPECTION 05000334/2018403 AND 05000412/2018403

Dear Mr. Bologna:

On January 29, 2018, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a baseline inspection in accordance with Inspection Procedure (IP) 71130.10 Cyber-Security, issued May 15, 2017 at the Beaver Valley Power Station, Units 1 and 2. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to meet 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 January 29-February 2, 2018, and February 12-16, 2018. 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 Inspection Procedure. This information should be made available via compact disc and delivered to the regional office no later than October 31, 2017. The inspection team will review this information and, by November 17, 2017, 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 your stations Cyber-Security Program selected for the cyber-security inspection. This information will be requested for review in the regional office prior to the inspection by December 11, 2017.

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, January 29, 2018. 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 Mr. David Werkheiser. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is Mr. David Wacker of your organization. If there are any questions about the inspection or the material requested, please contact the lead inspector at 610-337-5316 or via e-mail at David.Werkheiser@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.

This letter and its enclosure will be available for public inspection and copying at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams.html and at the NRCs Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

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 Cyber-Security Program (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 to the regional office by October 31, 2017, 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 November 17, 2017, 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 regional office prior to the inspection by December 11, 2017. All requests for information shall follow the Table RFI #1 and the guidance document referenced above. The required Table RFI #1 information shall be provided on compact disc (CD) to the lead inspector by October 31, 2017. Please provide four copies of each CD submitted (i.e., one for each inspector/contactor). The preferred file format for all lists is a searchable Excel spreadsheet file on a CD. These CDs should be indexed and hyper-linked to facilitate ease of use. If you have any questions regarding this information, please call the inspection team leader as soon as possible.
