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 SEDAR process. SEDAR is a
participatory process for developing, evaluating and reviewing
information used for fisheries management advice. This multi-step
process for determining the status of fish stocks in the Southeast
Region may include (1) a Data stage, and (2) an Assessment stage, and
(3) a Review stage. Each stage produces a report summarizing decisions
made during that stage. A final stock assessment report is produced at
the end of a SEDAR process documenting data sets used, model
configurations and the opinions from the independent peer review.
Participants for SEDAR projects are appointed by the Gulf, South
Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils and National Marine
Fisheries Service Southeast Regional Office, Highly Migratory Species
Management Division, and Southeast Fisheries Science Center.
Participants may 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 during the SEDAR 108 Introduction webinar
are as follows:
The lead assessment team will present new and old data that is
expected to be used in the assessment.
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
