The Transboundary Resources Assessment Committee (TRAC) met during 14-18 April 2014 in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA, to conduct a Diagnostic and Empirical Approach Benchmark review of Georges Bank Yellowtail Flounder (GB YTF). The consensus results of this benchmark will be applied in the June 2014 TRAC assessment for GB YTF. The results from the 2014 assessment will subsequently be used by the Transboundary Management Guidance Committee (TMGC) in developing management guidance for the 2015 fishing year for this transboundary resource. 2014 TRAC Transboundary Resources Assessment Committee Proceedings 2014/01 NMFS (National Marine Fisheries Service) NEFSC (Northeast Fisheries Science Center) Submitted Public Domain 1862
