Agenda

    The Scallop Advisory Panel and Plan Development Team will review 
Framework (FW) 30 alternatives and analyses. The primary focus of this 
meeting will be to provide input on the range of specification 
alternatives. FW 30 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 2019 and default specifications for fishing year 2020. 
Management measures in FW 30 include: (1) Standard default measures. 
They also plan to review progress toward 2018 work items, make 
recommendations on 2019 scallop work priorities, and consider 
approaches for moving priorities forward. 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 these meetings. 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.
