The action will set ABC/ACLs, days-atsea, access area allocations, total
allowable landings for the Northern Gulf
of Maine (NGOM) management area,
targets for General Category incidental
catch, General Category access area trips
and trip accounting, and set-asides for
the observer and research programs for
fishing year 2023 and default
specifications for fishing year 2024.
They also plan to review work
priorities—receive updates on the
progress toward 2022 work priorities
and Committee tasking. Provide input
on the range of possible 2023 scallop
work priorities. Also, on the agenda is
Scoping for Limited Access Leasing—
review input gathered through the
scoping process and recommend
whether the Council should initiate an
amendment to develop measures that
would allow leasing in the Limited
Access component of the fishery. Other
business will be discussed, if necessary.
Although non-emergency issues not
contained on the agenda may come
before this Council for discussion, those
issues may not be the subject of formal

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 threestep process including: (1) Data
Workshop; (2) Assessment Process
utilizing webinars; and (3) Review
Workshop. The product of the Data
Workshop is a data report which
compiles and evaluates potential
datasets and recommends which
datasets are appropriate for assessment
analyses. The product of the Assessment
Process is a stock assessment report
which describes the fisheries, evaluates
the status of the stock, estimates
biological benchmarks, projects future
population conditions, and recommends
research and monitoring needs. The
assessment is independently peer
reviewed at the Review Workshop. The
product of the Review Workshop is a
Summary documenting panel opinions
regarding the strengths and weaknesses
of the stock assessment and input data.
Participants for SEDAR Workshops are
appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South
Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery
Management Councils and NOAA
Fisheries Southeast Regional Office,
Highly Migratory Species Management
Division, and Southeast Fisheries
Science Center. Participants include:
data collectors and database managers;
stock assessment scientists, biologists,
