The Northeast Fisheries Science Center will be hosting a Nov. 29-Dec. 2 meeting at its facility in Woods Hole where a panel of experts will peer review assessments for black sea bass and witch flounder stocks. Working groups of federal, state, and academic scientists have been developing the assessments over the past year. The peer reviewers will determine if the work is adequate for use in making fishery management decisions.
This is the 62nd meeting of the Northeast Stock Assessment Review Workshop, a multi-part process that develops, evaluates, and presents stock assessment results to fishery managers in the region. Assessments are prepared by working groups and peer reviewed by a Stock Assessment Review Committee (SARC), an independent panel of stock assessment researchers from outside of the regional process.
The meeting is open to the public. It will be held in the Stephen H. Clark Conference Room at the science center and be concurrently available by webinar and teleconference.
