SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management 
Council's Summer Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass Advisory Panel will 
meet with the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission's Summer 
Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass Advisory Panel via webinar. The 
objective of this meeting is to discuss 2027 recreational measures 
(i.e., bag, size, and season limits) for summer flounder, scup, and 
black sea bass. The Council and Commission previously adopted 2026-2027 
recreational measures for summer flounder, scup, and black sea bass 
(the same measures across the 2 years). Therefore, Advisors will review 
the previously adopted 2027 recreational measures for all three species 
and provide input on whether these measures should remain unchanged.
    The meeting is physically accessible to people with disabilities. 
Requests for sign language interpretation or other auxiliary aids 
should be directed to Shelley Spedden, (302) 526-5251 at least 5 days 
prior to the meeting date.
