The Mid-Atlantic Council’s Advisory Panels (APs) will meet jointly on Friday, June 5 from 9:30 to 11:00 am. The purpose of this meeting is for AP members to develop recommendations on how the fisheries they participate in could be displayed on the Mid-Atlantic Data Portal and the Northeast Ocean Data Portal. The data portals are used for a number of purposes, including planning, analysis, and outreach related to fisheries management, aquaculture, dredging, offshore energy development, and research. AP input provided during this webinar will support a joint project between the Northeast Regional Ocean Council (NROC), the Mid-Atlantic Regional Council on the Ocean (MARCO), and the Responsible Offshore Development Alliance (RODA) to update and improve the data portals. Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council staff will host this meeting and NROC, MARCO, and RODA staff will present and facilitate the discussion.
