Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 193 / Wednesday, October 5, 2016 / Notices

Fisheries 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 threestep 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 of Mexico, 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 nongovernmental organizations (NGOs);
international experts; and staff of
Councils, Commissions, and state and
federal agencies.
SEDAR 50 is providing an assessment
of Atlantic blueline tilefish. During a
Stock Identification Workshop held in
July 2016, it was recommended that the
western boundary of the Atlantic stock
be extended to include the west coast of
Florida. The SEDAR Steering
Committee, responsible for program
oversight and assessment project
scheduling, recommended convening a
meeting of SSC representatives to
consider stock and management unit
overlap between the Gulf and South
Atlantic Council areas of jurisdiction
and provide recommendations on risks
to the stock posed by continued
management per the Gulf Council
jurisdiction. Each Council has identified
representatives of its SSC to participate
in this meeting.
The items of discussion for the Stock
Identification SSC Review via Webinar
are as follows:

South Atlantic Fishery Management
Councils.
3. Provide guidance on the risks
associated with management based on
the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management
Council boundary.
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.
