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, 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 that
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,

Fisheries Southeast Regional Office, Highly Migratory Species
