Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 8 / Wednesday, January 13, 2010 / Notices
preliminary results of an administrative
review within 245 days after the last day
of the anniversary month of an order for
which a review is requested. However,
if it is not practicable to complete the
review within these time periods,
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows
the Department to extend the 245 day
time period for the preliminary results
up to 365 days.
The Department has determined it is
not practicable to complete this review
within the statutory time limit because
we require additional time to collect
and analyze information needed for our
preliminary results. Accordingly, the
Department is extending the time limits
for completion of the preliminary
results of this administrative review
until no later than May 31, 2010, which
is 365 days from the last day of the
anniversary month of these orders. We
intend to issue the final results in this
review no later than 120 days after
publication of the preliminary results.
This notice is issued and published in
accordance with sections 751(a)(3)(A)
and 777(i)(1) of the Act.
Dated: January 7, 2010.

ACTION: Notice of SEDAR Review
Workshop for Atlantic croaker and
Atlantic menhaden.
SUMMARY: The SEDAR assessment
review of the Atlantic stocks of croaker
and menhaden will be conducted at a
Review Workshop. This is the twentieth
SEDAR. See SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION.
ADDRESSES: The Review Workshop will
be held at the Hilton Garden Inn, 5265

The Gulf
of Mexico, South Atlantic, and
Caribbean Fishery Management
Councils, in conjunction with NOAA
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. The SEDAR 20
Review Workshop will be an
independent peer review of the
products from assessments of Atlantic
stocks of croaker and menhaden
conducted by the Atlantic States Marine
Fisheries Commission (ASMFC).
Products to be reviewed are reports from
the ASMFC Data Workshop and ASMFC
Stock Assessment Workshop for each
stock. The Data Workshop Reports
compile and evaluate potential datasets
and recommend which datasets are
appropriate for assessment analyses.
The Stock Assessment Workshop
Reports describe the fisheries, evaluate
the status of the stock, estimate
biological benchmarks, project future
population conditions, and recommend
research and monitoring needs. The
product of the Review Workshop is a
Peer Review Evaluation Report
documenting Panel opinions regarding
the strengths and weaknesses of the
stock assessment and input data.
Participants for the SEDAR 20 Review
Workshop are appointed by the Atlantic
States Marine Fisheries Commissions,
NOAA Fisheries Southeast Fisheries
Science Center, and the NOAA Center
for Independent Experts. Review
Workshop participants may include
data collectors and database managers;
stock assessment scientists, biologists,
and researchers; constituency
representatives including fishermen,
environmentalists, and NGO’s;
international experts; and staff of
Councils, Commissions, and state and
federal agencies.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES: The Review Workshop will take
place March 8–12, 2010. See
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for specific
dates and times.
