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 update assessments add additional years 
of information to benchmark assessment models developed and approved 
previously. SEDAR Update assessments are developed through a workshop 
and webinar process including representatives from State and Federal 
Agencies, Council SSCs and Advisory Panels, NGO's, and fishery 
constituents. Update assessments are reviewed by Council SSCs.
    Representatives of the GMFMC and SAFMC SSCs are conducting this 
review of the updated spiny lobster assessment. They will develop stock 
status and fishing level recommendations that will be provided to each 
Council's SSC for consideration.

Spiny Lobster Update Review Schedule:

November 18, 2010: 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.

November 19, 2010: 8 a.m. - 12 p.m.

    The established daily times may be adjusted as necessary to 
accommodate the timely completion of discussion relevant to the 
assessment process. Such adjustments may result in the meeting being 
extended from, or completed prior to, the time established by this 
notice.
    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 listed 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 Council's 
intent to take final action to address the emergency.

Special Accommodations

    These meetings are physically accessible to people with 
disabilities. Requests for sign language interpretation or other 
auxiliary aids should be directed to the Council office (see FOR
