SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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. SEDAR is a three
step process including: (1) Data
Workshop; (2) Assessment Process
utilizing workshops and webinars; and
(3) Review Workshop.
SEDAR also coordinates procedural
workshops which provide an
opportunity for focused discussion and
deliberation on topics that arise in
multiple assessments. They are
structured to develop best practices for
addressing common issues across
assessments. The seventh procedural
workshop and subsequent post
workshop webinars will develop best
practice recommendations for SEDAR
Data Workshops.
Workshop objectives include
developing an inventory of common or
recurring data and analysis issues from
SEDAR Data Workshops; documenting
how the identified data and analysis
issues were addressed in the past and
identifying potential additional methods
to address these issues; developing and
selecting best practice procedures and
approaches for addressing these issues
in future, including procedures and
approaches to follow when deviating
from best practice recommendations;
and identifying process to address
future revision and evaluation of
workshop recommendations,
considering all unaddressed data and
analysis issues. The post-workshop
webinar #3 will be held to finalize best
practice recommendations from the
workshop.
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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ONMS
serves as the trustee for 14 marine
protected areas encompassing more than

and cultural resources, and through
active research, management, and
public engagement, sustains healthy
environments that are the foundation for
thriving communities and stable
economies. One of the many ways
ONMS ensures public participation in
the designation and management of
national marine sanctuaries is through
the formation of advisory councils.
National marine sanctuary advisory
councils are community-based advisory
groups established to provide advice
and recommendations to the
superintendents of the national marine
sanctuaries on issues including
management, science, service, and
stewardship; and to serve as liaisons
between their constituents in the
community and the sanctuary.
Additional information on ONMS and
its advisory councils can be found at
https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov. Information
related to the purpose, policies and
operational requirements for advisory
councils can be found in the charter for
a particular advisory council (https://
sanctuaries.noaa.gov/management/ac/
council_charters.html) and the National
Marine Sanctuary Advisory Council
Implementation Handbook (https://
www.sanctuaries.noaa.gov/
