SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Agenda

    The Scallop Plan Development Team (PDT) and Advisory Panel (AP) 
will review Framework (FW) 29 alternatives and analyses. The primary 
focus of this meeting will be to provide input on the range of 
specification alternatives. FW 29 will set specifications including 
ABC/ACLs, days at sea, access area allocations, total allowable catch 
for the Northern Gulf of Maine (NGOM) management area, targets for 
General Category incidental catch and set-asides for the observer and 
research programs for fishing year 2018 and default specifications for 
fishing year 2019. Management measures in FW 29 include: (1) Flatfish 
accountability measures; (2) NGOM Management measures; (3) Measures to 
access area boundaries consistent with potential changes to habitat and 
groundfish mortality closed areas. They will also make recommendations 
on 2018 scallop work priorities. The PDT and AP will discuss scallop 
related issues under consideration in groundfish FW 57. Other business 
may be discussed as necessary.
    Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come 
before this group for discussion, those issues may not be the subject 
of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to 
those issues specifically listed in this notice and any issues arising 
after publication of this notice that require emergency action under 
section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, provided the public has 
been notified of the Council's intent to take final action to address 
the emergency.
