The advisors may consider other topics at their discretion. 2. Tuesday, March 20, 2007; Scallop Committee Meeting, 8:30 a.m. The committee will review the DSEIS for Amendment 11 and consider input from the Scallop Plan Development Team and advisors concerning final recommendations for preferred alternatives for the Council to consider at the April 2007 Council meeting. If time permits, the Committee will consider further development of alternatives for Framework 19 to the Scallop FMP. Framework 19 is a biennial framework to set management measures for fishing years 2008 and 2009. The Committee may consider other topics at their discretion. Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come before these groups for discussion, those issues may not be the subject of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to those issues specifically listed in this notice and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action under section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, provided the public has been notified of the Council’s intent to take final action to address the emergency.

To date, 48 states have adopted the NAD 83 legislation however, for various reasons, only 33 included a specific definition of the relationship between meters and feet. This lack of uniformity has led to confusion and misuse of SPCs as provided in various NGS products, services and tools, and created errors in mapping, charting and surveying programs in numerous states due to inconsistent coordinate conversions.

Abstract

    In 1991, NGS adopted a policy that defines the conditions under 
which NAD 83 State Plane Coordinates (SPCs) would be published in feet 
in addition to meters. As outlined in that policy, each state or 
territory must adopt NAD 83 legislation (typically referenced as Codes, 
Laws or Statutes), which specifically defines a conversion to either 
U.S. Survey or International Feet as defined by the U.S. Bureau of 
Standards in Federal Register Notice 59-5442. To date, 48 states have 
adopted the NAD 83 legislation however, for various reasons, only 33 
included a specific definition of the relationship between meters and 
feet. This lack of uniformity has led to confusion and misuse of SPCs 
as provided in various NGS products, services and tools, and created 
errors in mapping, charting and surveying programs in numerous states 
due to inconsistent coordinate conversions.
