SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf, South Atlantic, and Caribbean
Fishery Management Councils, in conjunction with NOAA Fisheries and the
Atlantic and Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commissions have implemented
the 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/Assessment Workshop 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,
[[Page 51158]]
and recommends research and monitoring needs. Participants for SEDAR
Workshops are appointed by the Gulf, 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; International
experts; and staff of Councils, Commissions, and state and Federal
agencies.
The items of discussion in the Review Workshop are as follows:
Participants will evaluate the data and assessment reports, as
specified in the Terms of Reference for the workshop and determine if
they are scientifically sound.
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)
