SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, and
Caribbean Fishery Management Councils, in conjunction with NOAA
Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf States Marine Fisheries
Commissions,
[[Page 38387]]
have implemented the Southeast Data, Assessment and Review (SEDAR)
process, a multi-step method for determining the status of fish stocks
in the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a three-step process including: (1)
Data Workshop; (2) Assessment Process utilizing webinars; and (3)
Review Workshop. The product of the Data Workshop is a data report
which compiles and evaluates potential datasets and recommends which
datasets are appropriate for assessment analyses. The product of the
Assessment Process is a stock assessment report which describes the
fisheries, evaluates the status of the stock, estimates biological
benchmarks, projects future population conditions, and recommends
research and monitoring needs. The assessment is independently peer
reviewed at the Review Workshop. The product of the Review Workshop is
a Summary documenting panel opinions regarding the strengths and
weaknesses of the stock assessment and input data. Participants for
SEDAR Workshops are appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic,
and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils and NOAA Fisheries Southeast
Regional Office, Highly Migratory Species Management Division, and
Southeast Fisheries Science Center. Participants include: data
collectors and database managers; stock assessment scientists,
biologists, and researchers; constituency representatives including
fishermen, environmentalists, and non-governmental organizations
(NGOs); international experts; and staff of Councils, Commissions, and
state and federal agencies.
The items of discussion at the SEDAR 77 HMS Hammerhead Shark
Assessment Webinar II are as follows: discuss any leftover data issues
that were not cleared up during the data process, answer any questions
that the analysts have, and introduce/discuss model development and
model setup.
Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come
before this group for discussion, those issues may not be the subject
of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to
those issues specifically identified in this notice and any issues
arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action
under section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the intent to
take final action to address the emergency.
Special Accommodations
This meeting is accessible to people with disabilities. Requests
for auxiliary aids should be directed to the South Atlantic Fishery
Management Council office (see ADDRESSES) at least 5 business days
prior to the meeting.
Note: The times and sequence specified in this agenda are
