The March 2025 PFMC Council Meeting, held on March 8, 2025, began with a brief overview of the day's agenda, which was adjusted due to delays in salmon modeling discussions. The council acknowledged ongoing issues with the salmon model that required attention from staff, prompting a shift in the schedule.

The meeting commenced with agenda item D2, as planned, while the salmon-related item E4 was postponed until the necessary repairs to the model could be completed. The council expressed a commitment to maintaining flexibility in the agenda, indicating that they would address the salmon item as soon as it was ready, demonstrating their adaptability to unforeseen circumstances.

Following the discussion of item D2, the council moved directly to agenda item E3, bypassing E4 for the time being. This approach allowed the council to continue progressing through the meeting while minimizing disruptions.

Overall, the meeting reflected the council's ability to navigate scheduling challenges while ensuring that all agenda items were addressed in a timely manner. The council's next steps will depend on the completion of the salmon model repairs, after which they will integrate the salmon discussions into the agenda.
