SUBJECT:

INDIAN POINT NUCLEAR GENERATING - INFORMATION REQUEST FOR THE CYBER-SECURITY INSPECTION, NOTIFICATION TO PERFORM INSPECTION 05000247/2019403 AND 05000286/2019403

Dear Mr. Vitale:

On September 16, 2019, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) will begin a team inspection in accordance with Inspection Procedure 71130.10P, Cyber-Security, issued May 15, 2017, at Indian Point Nuclear Generating (Indian Point), Units 2 and 3. The inspection will be performed to evaluate and verify your ability to meet full implementation requirements of the NRCs Cyber-Security Rule, Title 10 of the 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 September 16, 2019, and September 30, 2019. Experience has shown that team inspections are extremely resource intensive, both for the NRC inspectors and the licensee staff. 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 with dates agreed by the site. 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 June 20, 2019. The inspection team will review this information and, by July 19, 2019, 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 plants 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 August 21, 2019.

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, September 16, 2019. 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 David Werkheiser. We understand that our regulatory contact for this inspection is George Dahl 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 NRC Public Document Room in accordance with 10 CFR 2.390, Public Inspections, Exemptions, Requests for Withholding.

Sincerely,

/RA/

Glenn T. Dentel, Chief Engineering Branch 2 Division of Reactor Safety

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 June 20, 2019, 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 July 19, 2019, 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 by August 21, 2019. All requests for information responses shall follow the RFI table matrix and the guidance document referenced above.

The required Table RFI #1 information shall be provided on compact disc (CD) to the lead inspector by June 20, 2019. Please provide four copies of each CD submitted (i.e., one for each inspector/contractor). 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.
