Within three years of March 1, 1972, the Secretary had to study the Buffalo National River. The Secretary then reported to the President on whether any part should become protected wilderness. Any wilderness designation must follow the standard wilderness review process.

Within three years after March 1, 1972, the Secretary had to review the land inside the Buffalo National River's boundaries. The Secretary then had to report to the President, following the process in section 1132(c) and (d) of this title. The report had to recommend whether any area within the river was suitable, or not suitable, for preservation as wilderness. If any area was later designated as wilderness, that designation also had to follow the same process in section 1132(c) and (d).
