This law requires a report to Congress every two years on the geologic mapping program. The report must describe the program's status and its progress on the map database. It can also recommend new laws or other actions.

Starting no later than three years after March 30, 2009, and every two years after that, the Secretary of the Interior must send a report to the House Committee on Resources and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. The report has to cover three things. (1) It must describe the current status of the national geologic mapping program. (2) It must describe and evaluate the progress made over the previous two years in building the national geologic map database. (3) It must include any recommendations the Secretary has for new legislation or other action needed to achieve the goals set out in sections 31c through 31f of this title.
