The
purpose of the SSC Economics
Subcommittee meeting is to review the
economic analysis associated with
sablefish gear switching alternatives
being considered by the Pacific Council.
The Pacific Council has been in
discussions related to limiting the use of
non-trawl gear to target sablefish north
of 36° N latitude in the trawl individual
fishing quota (IFQ) fishery (gear
switching), since 2017. At this point in
the process, the SSC Economics
Subcommittee plans to review the
economic analysis for the current
version of alternatives, as they have
been modified notably over time.
No management actions will be
decided by the meeting participants.
The participants’ role will be the
development of recommendations and
reports for consideration by the SSC and
the Pacific Council at a future Pacific
Council meeting. The Pacific Council
and Scientific and Statistical Committee
are scheduled to consider the sablefish
gear switching alternatives at their
November 2023 meeting in Garden
Grove, CA.
Although nonemergency issues not
contained in the meeting agenda may be
discussed, those issues may not be the
subject of formal action during this
meeting. Action will be restricted to
those issues specifically listed in this
notice and any issues arising after
publication of this notice that require
emergency action under Section 305(c)
of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act,
provided the public has been notified of
the intent of the workshop participants
