Information:Email: ctuohy@asmfc.org Draft Agenda & Meeting Materials The Northern Shrimp Advisory Panel will meet to review the 2022 traffic light analysis for northern shrimp, the ongoing fishery moratorium set to expire in 2024, Management Strategy Evaluation Work Group discussions, and the Technical Committee’s wake-up index proposal for the Section’s consideration. The wake-up index was developed to serve as a trigger to indicate when the northern shrimp stock approaches a healthy population level that may be able to support a viable fishery. Under the wake-up index, the fishery would remain in a permanent moratorium until the index is triggered. Description
