SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: At this 

meeting, the AP will evaluate and 

recommend innovative management 

strategies for the private and for-hire 

recreational red snapper fisheries of the 

Gulf of Mexico, and evaluate and 

recommend innovative approaches to 

minimizing bycatch and bycatch 

mortality in the private and for-hire 

recreational red snapper fisheries of the 

Gulf of Mexico. Approaches that could 

be considered for management of the 

recreational red snapper fishery include, 

but are not limited to, random 

distribution systems such as lotteries, 

community-based approaches, 

incentive-based approaches, effort 

control, and, any other novel 

approaches deemed relevant by the AP. 

Approaches to minimize bycatch and 

bycatch mortality could include, but are 

not limited to, methods to improve the 

survival of released fish, methods to 

avoid the capture of undersized or outof-season fish and, methods to account 

for otherwise unavoidable regulatory 

discards. The AP may also discuss 

related issues such as regional 

management, monitoring methods, 

accountability measures, or other issues 

associated with management of the 

recreational red snapper fishery. 

Although other issues not on the 

agenda may come before the panel for 

discussion, in accordance with the 

Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act, 

those issues may not be the subject of
