Meeting Information

The Commission’s Horseshoe Crab Management Board is holding a stakeholder workshop January 29-30, 2026, in the Spinnaker Room at the Courtyard by Marriott Ocean City Oceanfront, Two 15th Street, Ocean City, Maryland. The workshop is the central event in an ongoing stakeholder engagement process to inform revisions to the Delaware Bay Horseshoe Crab Adaptive Resource Management (ARM) Framework. The process is being facilitated by Compass Resource Management with the goal of identifying stakeholder values and perspectives in order to develop clear, actionable recommendations for revising core functions of the ARM Framework that reflect stakeholder priorities.

The sessions of the workshop that will be broadcast will be limited to presentations and Q&A sessions. Please note that the webinar will be listen-only.
