Please reach out to the NMFS AKRO Tribal Relations Coordinator Amilee Wilson (amilee.wilson@noaa.gov), as soon as possible if you have interest in consulting or engaging with us. Consultation or engagement may occur on any Council action in addition to those listed above. Depending on tribal response, we are aiming for a mid to late May timeframe.
Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
