The South Atlantic Fishery Management Council will conduct a series of public scoping meetings in February 2008. Scoping topics include:
· A proposed Comprehensive Allocation Amendment
· Upcoming changes to fishery management measures for species in the Snapper Grouper management complex
· Limited Access Privilege Programs
· Allocation of the South Atlantic commercial king mackerel quota
These meetings will include opportunities for informal round table discussion with staff and local representatives from the Council as we travel throughout the southeast to bring you the latest information about fisheries issues and discuss your concerns. Then, go on record officially to let Council members know your opinions and recommendations. This is a unique opportunity – don’t miss your chance to participate!
