SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: At its September 2018 meeting, the Pacific 
Council decided to embark on the Climate and Communities Initiative 
pursuant to its Fishery Ecosystem Plan. The purpose of this initiative 
is to help the Pacific Council, its advisory bodies, and the public to 
better understand the effects of near-term climate shift and long-term 
climate change on our fish, fisheries, and fishing communities and 
identify ways in which the Council

[[Page 3304]]

could incorporate such understanding into its decision-making. As a 
first step, the Council's Ad Hoc Ecosystem Workgroup is working with 
scientists at NMFS Northwest and Southwest Fisheries Science Centers to 
present a series of webinars to educate the Pacific Council, advisory 
bodies, and the interested public about current research and forecasts 
related to the effects of climate variability/change on the California 
Current Ecosystem.
    Although non-emergency 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.

Special Accommodations

    This meeting is physically accessible to people with disabilities. 
Requests for sign language interpretation or other auxiliary aids 
should be directed to Mr. Kris Kleinschmidt (503) 820-2411 at least 10
