During this meeting, the EOP Committee and AP will review a completed draft of the Council's Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) risk assessment report. In 2023, the Council conducted a comprehensive review of the risk assessment and recommended a number of changes and updates to be included in a revised EAFM risk assessment. The draft report has been updated to reflect the approved changes to the risk assessment, incorporates the latest data and scientific information, and recent feedback from the EOP Committee and AP on an earlier draft. The EOP Committee and AP will provide any additional feedback before the 2024 EAFM risk assessment report is finalized and presented to the Council in December.
