Background

These workshops are part of the Council’s development of a management strategy evaluation (MSE) which will evaluate different management strategies designed to minimize discards in the recreational summer flounder fishery. Input provided during the workshops will build on the 800+ comments and suggestions that were submitted through a public comment form earlier this year [https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://click.icptrack.com__;!!KKphUJtCzQ!fLSnidufedaH4OcZ1U49B7dDEIejT5ht-L2fbI6Zgj3dSYjpwI2IoRPdfpvzZ0GlAE1KSDOcBc8-$ [click[.]icptrack[.]com]]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=36899798&msgid=520524&act=EV3Z&c=1229622&destination=https*3A*2F*2Fwww.mafmc.org*2Fnewsfeed*2F2021*2Fsummer-flounder-mse-comment-opportunity&cf=575&v=2c23054f579853678bbf81ff89e5b268eab54e0ff223f48db00ce8d6d1d08fdc__;JSUlJSUl!!KKphUJtCzQ!fkWJXqrzVRGneYLZGpBNb19XSVlgwPN1jf6FRfB2OjwcxdldCWmjB8ZBOjUDN2iJUOe-Iq-2$>.
