The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is seeking nominations for members to join the U.S. section of the Permanent Advisory Committee (PAC) under the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Convention. The PAC is responsible for advising U.S. Commissioners on matters related to managing fish stocks in the Pacific Ocean. Those interested can nominate themselves or others and must submit applications by March 24, 2025. NMFS encourages diverse applicants, including women and individuals from underserved communities, to apply for this voluntary, two-year appointment.
Simple Explanation
The government is looking for people to help give advice about fishing in the Pacific Ocean. They want all kinds of people to join, like women and people from different communities, and these helpers will not get paid for their work.
