November 9  •  SC-AFS Fall Workshop - Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management in South Carolina
The SC-AFS, chartered on September 24, 1982, is planning to open its 25th year with a workshop focused around "Ecosystem Based Fisheries Management in South Carolina". This event will take place on Friday November 9 from 1:00-4:30pm in the Russell House Theater at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, SC. The workshop will open with three key note presentations, each highlighting a different aspect of fisheries in SC. The speakers will set the stage for a forum discussion about ecosystem based fisheries management. This forum discussion will be moderated by Dr. John Mark Dean and forum members will represent diverse aspects of SC fisheries, such as marine and freshwater environments, fisheries management, legal and political aspects, socio-economic facets, commercial and recreational fisheries, conservation, etc. We expect attendance of people with a wide range of natural resource management interests and we will encourage active participation of the audience in the discussions. The program is will be followed by a reception from 5-7pm for SC-AFS members and workshop participants.  More Info, Map and Directions, Program …
