    The advisory panel will review range of alternatives in the clam

Development Team with guidance from the Habitat Committee and the 
Council. The panel will also review the PDT's preliminary analysis of 
alternatives. They will also discuss findings of the Council's 
Enforcement Committee regarding the use of 5-minute VMS to monitor 
fishing activity within potential exemption areas. The panel will 
provide feedback to the Habitat Committee about the alternatives and 
related analyses. Other business will be discussed as necessary.

of formal action during these meetings. Action will be restricted to 
those issues specifically listed in this notice and any issues arising

the emergency.
