SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
reauthorized MSA established new
requirements to end and prevent
overfishing through the use of ACLs and
AMs. Federal FMPs must establish
mechanisms for ACLs and AMs by 2010
for stocks subject to overfishing and by
2011 for all others, with the exceptions
of stocks managed under an
international agreement or stocks with a
life cycle of approximately one year.
On January 16, 2009, NMFS
published amended guidelines for
National Standard 1 (NS1) of the MSA
to provide guidance on how to comply
with new ACL and AM requirements.
The NS1 guidelines include
recommendations for establishing
several related reference points to
ensure scientific and management
uncertainty are accounted for when
management measures are established.
The purpose of this meeting is to
finalize alternatives and analyses to
address those issues in a National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
analysis that will be presented to the
Council for final action at its June 2011
meeting in Spokane, WA.
Although non-emergency issues not
contained in the meeting agenda may
come before the SAC for discussion,
those issues may not be the subject of
formal action during these meetings.
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 MagnusonStevens 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.
