Council's (Pacific Council's) Scientific and Statistical Committee
(SSC) will hold a workshop to develop methods for constructing

Template Model Builder. The workshop and methodology review meeting is
open to the public.
DATES: The SSC Groundfish Subcommittee's online workshop and
methodology review meeting will be held Tuesday, June 21, 2022 through
Thursday, June 23, 2022 beginning at 8 a.m. each day and continuing
