ACTION: Notice; public meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Pacific Fishery Management Council's (Council) Ad Hoc 
Ecosystem Workgroup (EWG) will hold a webinar, which is open to the 
public.

DATES: The webinar will be held on January 10, 2017, from 1:30 to 4:30 
p.m., or when business for the day is completed.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Kit Dahl, Pacific Council Staff 
Officer; phone: (503) 820-2422; email: [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The purpose of the webinar is for the EWG to 
discuss (1) preparation of the Annual State of the California Current 
Ecosystem Report and (2) future ecosystem initiatives under the 
Council's Fishery Ecosystem Plan (FEP).
    Each March, the National Marine Fisheries Service's Northwest and 
Southwest Fisheries Science Centers deliver a State of the California 
Current Ecosystem Report to the Council. The Report assesses current 
status through a series of indicators covering physical, biological, 
and socioeconomic components of the ecosystem. The Council has provided 
advice to the Science Centers on how to make the report more relevant 
to Council decision-making including comments on the suite of 
indicators it uses. The webinar will provide an opportunity for the EWG 
to discuss preparation of the current Report with Science Center 
representatives and the contents of future reports.
    At its March 2017 meeting, the Council will also consider taking up 
a new ecosystem-based fishery management initiative. Appendix A to the 
FEP contains a list of these initiatives, which are intended to address 
ecosystem gaps in ecosystem knowledge and FMP policies, particularly 
with respect to the cumulative effects of fisheries management on 
marine ecosystems and fishing communities. The FEP establishes a 
schedule by which each March the Council reviews progress to date on 
any ecosystem initiatives the Council already has underway and 
determines whether to take up a new initiative. In odd-numbered years 
the Council may also consider identifying new initiatives that are not 
already in Appendix A. The EWG will discuss current and potential new 
initiatives in preparation for the March 2017 Council meeting.
    Although nonemergency issues not contained in the meeting agenda 
may be discussed, those issues may not be the subject of formal action 
during this meeting. Action will be restricted to those issues 
specifically listed in this document and any issues arising after 
publication of this document that require emergency action under 
section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and 
Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the intent to 
take final action to address the emergency.
