SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 302(g)(2) of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens
Act), 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq., states that
each Council shall establish such
advisory panels as are necessary or
appropriate to assist it in carrying out its
functions under the Magnuson-Stevens
Act. For the purposes of this section,
NMFS applies the above Council
provision to Atlantic HMS management
(see section 304(g)(1) of the MagnusonStevens Act, which provides that the
Secretary will prepare fishery
management plans (FMPs) for HMS and
consult with Advisory Panels under
section 302(g) for such FMPs). As such,
NMFS has established the SEDAR Pool
under this section. The SEDAR Pool
currently consists of 30 individuals,
each of whom may be selected to review
data and advise NMFS regarding the
scientific information, including but not
limited to data and models, used in
stock assessments for oceanic sharks in
the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and
Caribbean Sea. While the SEDAR Pool
was created specifically for Atlantic
oceanic sharks, it may be expanded to
include other HMS, as needed.
The primary purpose of the
individuals in the SEDAR Pool is to
review, at SEDAR workshops, the
scientific information (including but not
limited to data and models) used in
stock assessments that are used to
advise NMFS, as a delegate to the
Secretary of Commerce (Secretary),
about the conservation and management
of Atlantic HMS, specifically but not
limited to, Atlantic sharks. Individuals
in the SEDAR Pool, if selected, may
participate in the various data,
assessment, and review workshops
during the SEDAR process of any HMS
stock assessment. In order to ensure that
the peer review is unbiased, individuals
who participated in a data and/or
assessment workshop for a particular
stock assessment will not be allowed to
serve as reviewers for the same stock
assessment. However, these individuals
may be asked to attend the review
