A peer review panel will meet December 5-9, 2022 to review the research track stock assessments for bluefish and spiny dogfish. An agenda and webinar connection details will be posted on the page linked below. This meeting is open to the public. Please note that the start and end times listed on this page are subject to change.
Research track assessments evaluate new datasets that can either inform or be used in new or existing stock assessment models. Unlike management track assessments, which are driven by the need to meet specific management timelines, research track assessments are carried out over longer time frames and with fewer requirements for using the most recent data. The research track is intended to be the opportunity for extensive and comprehensive research and analysis.
After the working group has completed its work, a peer review panel will be convened to conduct a comprehensive review of the research track assessment. The peer review panels review the assessment(s) for technical merit and provide recommendations on whether the assessment should or should not be used for management.
Typically, research track outputs are incorporated into future management track assessments (as opposed to directly informing management decisions). For this reason, research track assessments are often scheduled to have management track assessments in the following year, which ensures immediate application of the research results with the inclusion of the most recent data in a management track assessment.
The Surfclam and Ocean Quahog Committee will hold a public meeting via webinar on Friday, December 2, 2022, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The purpose of this meeting is to review public comment received on the draft Amendment to address species separation requirements in the Atlantic surfclam and ocean quahog fisheries. The Committee may also develop recommendations to the Council, to be presented to the full Council later in December.

The Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council’s Ecosystem and Ocean Planning (EOP) Committee and Advisory Panel will meet together, via webinar on Wednesday, November 30, 2022 from 9am until 12pm. The purpose of this meeting is for the EOP Committee and AP to begin a comprehensive review of the Council’s Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) risk assessment. The Council completed the initial risk assessment in 2017 to provide a snapshot of the current risks to meeting management objectives and helps the Council decide where to focus resources to address priority ecosystem considerations. This comprehensive review will allow the Council to evaluate new and existing objectives and risk elements and consider new information and analyses that are available to help update the risk assessment. It is anticipated the review will be completed in the fall of 2023.

NOAA Fisheries is collecting stakeholder input on the development of an omnibus amendment to incorporate the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument into relevant fishery management plans (FMPs). This amendment would incorporate the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument’s area and commercial fishing prohibition into FMPs and, ultimately, fishery regulations. NOAA Fisheries is asking for feedback on this action through November 30, 2022.
A virtual hearing will be held on November 16, 2022, at 3:00 pm. Visit the links below for more information.
Written comments can be submitted by emailing Laura Deighan at laura.deighan@noaa.gov. Include in the subject line "Comments on Monument Amendment." Comments can be submitted through November 30, 2022.
Following this hearing, additional opportunities for review and comment on the draft omnibus amendment will be provided.

The Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council's Protected Resources Committee will hold a public meeting, via webinar, on Monday, November 14, 2022, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The purpose of the meeting is for the PR Committee to review materials resulting from their data request to the Atlantic Large Whale Take Reduction Team (ALWTRT) and discuss potential sets of measures. The ALWTRT is tasked with reducing the risk of entanglement to right whales in U.S. East Coast fixed gear fisheries including gillnet, mixed species trap/pot, and lobster and Jonah crab trap/pot fisheries. The measures developed by the ALWTRT have the potential to impact several Council managed fisheries and the Protected Resources Committee will develop recommendations and guidance for the Council’s representation on the ALWTRT. The ALWTRT is currently scheduled to make final recommendations at their December 1-2 meeting, however this may be subject to change. The Committee may address other protected resources issues as they arise.

The New England Fishery Management Council has scheduled seven public information workshops to help inform fishermen and other stakeholders about ecosystem-based fishery management (EBFM) and its potential application to a Georges Bank Ecosystem Production Unit. The Council has been referring to this approach as an example Fishery Management Plan for Georges Bank (eFEP).
Given the potential implications for Mid-Atlantic fisheries and stakeholders, one of the workshops will be held in Montauk, NY on November 9. Please note that the workshop originally planned for Manahawkin, NJ has been cancelled. Learn more and register at the links below.

The MC will meet to discuss considerations for developing 2023 recreational management measures for all three species. These discussions will inform additional analysis that will be conducted prior to another meeting of the MC in November. During this first meeting, the MC will review 1) the Recreational Harvest Control Rule Percent Change Process approved by the Council in June 2022, 2) the results of the recently completed Summer Flounder Management Strategy Evaluation which explored strategies to reduce recreational discards, and 3) two recreational harvest estimation models that could be used to inform development of 2023 management measures. The MC will discuss the implications of these issues for development of 2023 recreational management measures, which will be further discussed at a subsequent MC meeting in November 2022.

As the next step in the climate change scenario planning initiative, three manager “brainstorming sessions” will be held in September/October 2022 with small groups of fishery managers from each participating organization. The purpose of these webinars is to generate ideas for possible actions and strategies managers might consider as the result of these scenarios. These ideas will feed into materials for meetings later this year where each management body will discuss recommended applications resulting from the scenario planning process.
Click here to join the webinar.
These meetings will function as working group meetings of a cross-section of managers from different participating organizations. Public comment may be taken at designated times.

Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council
The Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council is one of eight fishery management councils responsible for the management of marine fisheries in the United States Exclusive Economic Zone. The council develops management plans for twelve species of fish and species off the coast of the Mid-Atlantic region.
