SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf, South Atlantic, and Caribbean
Fishery Management Councils, in conjunction with NMFS 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 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, South Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery
Management Councils and NMFS 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 for the webinar are as follows:
<bullet> Continue discussion on modeling issues and decisions.
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.
