Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The Whale CHARTS Act requires the Secretary of Commerce to produce high-accuracy distribution maps for baleen whales and sperm whales in U.S. waters, including information on calving grounds, feeding grounds, migration routes, and other habitat uses. The maps must be made available in electronic formats compatible with vessel navigation systems and to the general public. The bill also requires surveys of understudied whale populations and mandates biennial reports to Congress on progress in mapping and filling knowledge gaps. The legislation authorizes $2 million annually for mapping and $1 million annually for surveys through fiscal year 2029.
