Public Webinar: Proposed Rulemaking to Revise the Guidelines for National Standards 4, 8, and 9
This is an informational webinar to discuss the Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to Revise the Guidelines for National Standards 4, 8, and 9.
About
NOAA Fisheries is releasing advance notice of a proposed rule and seeking public comment on the need for potential revisions to the Guidelines for National Standards 4, 8, and 9 of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act.
Since the National Standards 4, 8, and 9 Guidelines were last revised, a number of fishery management issues—including those related to climate-ready fisheries and equity and environmental justice—suggest a need to revisit the guidelines to ensure they remain appropriate for current U.S. fisheries management.
The intent of the proposed rule is to provide background on some of the specific issues under consideration, seek specific input, and provide a general opportunity for public comment.
