The N.C. Marine Fisheries Commission Nominating Committee will meet next week by webinar to recommend candidates for at-large seats on two fishery management councils.
The committee’s recommendations for the Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council and the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council will be forwarded to the Marine Fisheries Commission, a nine-member board appointed by the governor to manage, restore, develop, cultivate, protect and regulate the state’s marine and estuary resources.
