About Summer Flounder MSE Core Stakeholder Group Workshops
What is the Core Stakeholder Group and who is in it? The Summer Flounder MSE Core Stakeholder Group is comprised of approximately 15 stakeholders representing the range of fishery perspectives and will function as the main source of input to a technical work group and management to progress through the management strategy evaluation (MSE). More information about the Core Stakeholder Group including membership and the process used to identify members can be found in the Summer Flounder MSE Core Stakeholder Group Selection document.
Who will participate in the Core Stakeholder Group Workshops? Workshop participants will include members of the Core Stakeholder Group and the technical work group, which is composed of state, federal, and academic scientists and staff.
How can I find the webinar connection information or location details for the in-person workshops? Information on Core Stakeholder Group workshop locations and how to connect via phone or webinar (if available) may be obtained by contacting Council staff prior to the workshop. This information may not always be posted to the Council’s website.
Where can I find information about future workshops? The date, time, and location of the workshops are generally posted to the calendar on the Council’s website, sometimes with very little notice. The agenda and meeting materials will be posted on the workshop website, but topics on the agenda may be discussed in any order and may also discuss topics not listed.
Can I participate if I’m not in the Core Stakeholder Group? Members of the public may attend Core Stakeholder Group workshops, or listen to the workshops if they are broadcast, but public participation will be limited and depend on the time available. Work carried out by the Core Stakeholder Group is considered during committee and/or Council meetings, during which public comments are encouraged.
