Tilefish LH–TWG Webinar III is 

scheduled for December 18, 2024, from 

9 a.m. to 11 a.m., Eastern. The 

established times may be adjusted as 

necessary to accommodate the timely

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf 

of Mexico, South Atlantic, and 

Caribbean Fishery Management 

Councils, in conjunction with NOAA 

Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf 

States Marine Fisheries Commissions, 

have implemented the Southeast Data, 

Assessment and Review (SEDAR) 

process, a multi-step method for 

determining the status of fish stocks in 

the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a threestep process including: (1) Data 

Workshop; (2) Assessment Process 

utilizing webinars; and (3) Review 

Workshop. The product of the Data 

Workshop is a data report which 

compiles and evaluates potential 

datasets and recommends which 

datasets are appropriate for assessment 

analyses. The product of the Assessment 

Process is a stock assessment report 

which describes the fisheries, evaluates 

the status of the stock, estimates 

biological benchmarks, projects future 

population conditions, and recommends 

research and monitoring needs. The 

assessment is independently peer 

reviewed at the Review Workshop. The 

product of the Review Workshop is a 

Summary documenting panel opinions 

regarding the strengths and weaknesses 

of the stock assessment and input data. 

Participants for SEDAR Workshops are 

appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South 

Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery 

Management Councils and NOAA 

Fisheries Southeast Regional Office, 

Highly Migratory Species Management 

Division, and Southeast Fisheries 

Science Center. Participants include: 

data collectors and database managers; 

stock assessment scientists, biologists, 

and researchers; constituency 

representatives including fishermen, 

environmentalists, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs); 

international experts; and staff of 

Councils, Commissions, and state and 

federal agencies. 

The items of discussion at the SEDAR 

92 Atlantic Blueline Tilefish LH–TWG 

webinar III: The Group will discuss 

available life history data sources and 

make recommendation for their use in 

the assessment. 

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 this meeting. Action will 

be restricted to those issues specifically 

identified in this notice and any issues 

arising after publication of this notice 

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. 

Special Accommodations 

This meeting is accessible to people 

with disabilities. Requests for auxiliary 

aids should be directed to the South 

Atlantic Fishery Management Council 

office (see ADDRESSES) at least 10 

business days prior to the meeting.

Endangered and Threatened Species; 

Initiation of 5-Year Review of the 

Brazilian Guitarfish (Rhinobatos 

horkelii) 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice; request for information. 

SUMMARY: We, NMFS, announce the 

initiation of a 5-year review of the 

endangered Brazilian guitarfish 

(Rhinobatos horkelii). The Endangered 

Species Act (ESA) requires us to 

conduct a review of listed species at 

least once every 5 years to determine 

whether a species should be removed 

from the list (i.e., delisted), reclassified 

from an endangered species to a 

threatened species (i.e., downlisted), or 

reclassified from a threatened species to 

an endangered species (i.e., uplisted). 

The determination must be based on the 

best scientific and commercial data 

available at the time of the review. 

Therefore, we request relevant 

information (e.g., biology, threats, and 

conservation efforts) that has become 

available since our previous review of 

the species. 

DATES: To allow us adequate time to 

conduct the 5-year review, we must 

receive your information no later than 

January 27, 2025. While we accept new 

information about any listed species at 

any time, information received after the 

date stated above may not be considered 

for the purposes of this review. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your information 

electronically via the Federal 

eRulemaking Portal. Go to https://

www.regulations.gov and enter NOAA– 

NMFS–2024–0137 in the Search box.
