Release of the North Atlantic Right Whale Scenario Planning Summary Report

NOAA has released the North Atlantic Right Whale Scenario Planning Summary Report, which provides the discussions and recommendations from a NOAA Fisheries-led exercise. During the exercise, experts explored plausible future conditions for North Atlantic right whales and developed possible options to address these conditions to improve recovery. This exercise complements and enhances the many important ongoing efforts to recover right whales.

NOAA Fisheries will consider the priority actions identified from this exercise, as well as other relevant information, in its efforts to help with right whale recovery. NOAA will continue to work with our partners to optimize North Atlantic right whale recovery in the future.
