SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf, South Atlantic, and Caribbean 
Fishery Management Councils, in conjunction with the National Marine 
Fisheries Service 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 multi-step process 
including: (1) Data/Assessment Workshop, and (2) a series of webinars. 
The product of the Data and Assessment Workshops is a report which 
compiles and evaluates potential datasets and recommends which datasets 
are appropriate for assessment analyses, and describes the fisheries, 
evaluates the status of the stock, estimates biological benchmarks, 
projects future population conditions, and recommends research and 
monitoring needs. Participants for SEDAR Workshops are appointed by the 
Gulf, South Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils and 
National Marine Fisheries Service Southeast Regional Office, HMS 
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 NGO's; 
International experts; and staff of Councils, Commissions, and state 
and federal agencies.
    The items of discussion in the Data Workshop are as follows:
    An assessment data set and associated documentation will be 
developed during the workshop. Participants will evaluate proposed data 
and select appropriate sources for providing information on topics such 
as life history characteristics, catch statistics, discard estimates, 
length and age composition, and fishery dependent and fishery 
independent measures of stock abundance.
    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

    These meetings are physically accessible to people with 
disabilities. Requests for sign language interpretation or other 
auxiliary aids should be directed to the Council office (see ADDRESSES)
