Project Description
SEDAR 95 began as a benchmark stock assessment for ASMFC Cobia. The assessment began in March 2024 and was slated to be completed in Fall 2025. The lead SEFSC analyst left the Agency in September 2024, causing the assessment to be paused. A new analyst was identified to work on the assessment in 2026. Because of the time lapse between the pause and resumption of the assessment, the change in analytic teams and extension of the terminal year, this assessment has been assigned a new SEDAR number – SEDAR 107. For information on SEDAR 107, please visit the SEDAR 107 project page on the SEDAR website. For more information, please contact the SEDAR Coordinator for this project, Emily Ott: emily.ott@safmc.net.
