SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: At its September 2017 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 could incorporate such understanding 
into its decision-making. The EWG will be submitting a report to the 
Pacific Council at its March 2018 meeting with its recommendations on 
the development of this initiative. This webinar is an opportunity for 
members of other Pacific Council advisory bodies and the public to be 
briefed on the EWG's recommendations in preparation for the March 
Pacific Council meeting.
    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.
