Public Survey: Striped Bass Monitoring and Associated Habitats in Chesapeake Bay 

Thank you for your interest in providing input for the upcoming STAC* workshop on Striped Bass in the Chesapeake Bay! Your insights will help guide discussions during the Winter 2025 meeting on key factors impacting Striped Bass populations and management needs. This short survey should take about 10 minutes to complete. Results of the workshop will be made publicly available.


* Chesapeake Bay Scientific and Technical Advisory Committee (STAC) works to enhance scientific communication and outreach throughout the Chesapeake Bay watershed and beyond. STAC is staffed by the Chesapeake Research Consortium (CRC). More info on the committee and STAC activities here: https://www.chesapeake.org/stac/
