From the transcript
We're looking to see 90% of a core EFH area for a given species undisturbed. That's a threat. That's a really high threshold for determining what is minimum, especially with the scope and scale of our fisheries. So precaution is embodied both in us clearly demonstrating where those limitations and uncertainties are, doing the sensitivity analyses that I talked about, but we've also built into the, the workflow these careful thresholds to ensure we're treating that information appropriately given its uncertainty.
