The SARC-58 consisted of 3 external, independent reviewers appointed by the Center for Independent Experts [CIE], and an external SARC chairman from the MAFMC SSC. The SARC evaluated whether each Term of Reference (listed in the Appendix) was completed successfully based on whether the work provided a scientifically credible basis for developing fishery manage ment advice. The reviewers' reports for SAW/SARC-58 are available at website: http://www.nefsc.noaa.gov/nefsc/saw/ under the heading 'SARC 58 Panelist Reports'"--Introduction.
