stock assessment of Alaska Sablefish
(Anopoploma fimbria). The CIE is a
group affiliated with the University of
Miami that provides independent peer
reviews of NMFS science nationwide,
including reviews of stock assessments
for fish and marine mammals. The
Alaska Sablefish stock assessment is
reviewed annually by the Alaska
Fisheries Science Center, the North
Pacific Fishery Management Council
(NPFMC) Plan Team, and the NPFMC
Scientific and Statistical Committee.
The CIE review will examine whether
the assessment incorporates the best
scientific information available for
making management decisions and
provides a reasonable approach to
understanding the population dynamics
and stock status of Alaska Sablefish.
The public is invited to attend and
observe the presentations and
discussions between the CIE panel and
the NMFS scientists who collected and
processed the data, and designed the
underlying model.
DATES: The public meeting will be held
from May 10 through May 12, 2016, 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. Alaska Daylight Time.
ADDRESSES: The review will be held at
the Ted Stevens Marine Research
Institute, 17109 Pt. Lena Loop Rd,
Juneau, AK 99801. Visitors will need to
sign in at the front desk.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Dana Hanselman, 907–789–6626.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CIE
panel will consist of three peer
reviewers who will assess materials
related to the topic, participate in a
review workshop with the NMFS
scientists who developed the model and
the analytical approach, and produce a
report. This review will be highly
technical in nature and will cover
mathematical details of the analytical
approach. More information about the
CIE is available on its Web site at
www.ciereviews.org.
Members of the public are invited to
observe, and will be provided
opportunities to contribute on May 10
and May 12, 2016. The final report will
