Summary

Summary: The federal action to be analyzed under this draft SPEA is the proposed continuation of SWFSC fisheries research activities. The intent of this SPEA is to evaluate potential direct, indirect and cumulative effects of unforeseen changes in research that were not analyzed in the 2015 PEA, or new research activities. Where necessary, updates to certain information on species, stock status or other components of the affected environment that may result in different conclusions from the 2015 PEA are presented in this analysis.
