SUMMARY:
Management Council; telephone: (813)

The ABC
Control Rule Working Group will meet
to discuss potential revisions to the
acceptable biological catch (ABC)
control rule that was recently
implemented as part of the Council’s
Generic Annual Catch Limits/
Accountability Measures Amendment.
While all areas of the control rule will
be subject to review, particular attention
will be given to whether the P-star
approach used to determine ABC in Tier
1 of the control rule realistically
captures scientific uncertainty, and
possible revisions to the Tier 2 method
for data poor stocks. Recommendations
from the Working Group will be
presented to the Scientific and
Statistical Committee when it meets in
late March.
