About the SEDAR program

SouthEast Data, Assessment, and Review (SEDAR) is a cooperative

Fishery Management Council process initiated in 2002 to improve the

quality and reliability of fishery stock assessments in the South

Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, and US Caribbean. SEDAR is managed by the

Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic Regional Fishery

Management Councils in coordination with NOAA Fisheries and the

Atlantic and Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commissions. SEDAR seeks

improvements in the scientific quality of stock assessments and

greater relevance of quantities information available to address

existing and emerging fishery management issues. SEDAR

emphasizes constituent and stakeholder participation in assessment

development, transparency in the assessment process, and a rigorous

and independent scientific review of completed stock assessments.

SEDAR is organized around 3 workshops. The first is a data workshop

where datasets are documented, analyzed, and reviewed and data for

conducting assessment analyses are compiled. The second is an

assessment workshop where quantitative population analyses are

developed and refined and population parameters are estimated. The

third and final is a review workshop where a panel of independent

experts reviews the data and assessment and recommends the most

appropriate values of critical population and management quantities.

All SEDAR workshops are open to the public. Public testimony is

accepted in accordance with each Council's Standard Operating

Procedures. Workshop times and locations are noticed in advance

through the Federal Register.
