Pelagic Species Fishery Management Plan, when the Pacific sardine 
biomass is in an overfished condition. The Council established a 
process that includes scoping at the June 2018 meeting, adopting a 
range of alternatives at the September 2018 meeting, and final action 
at the November 2018 meeting.
