AI Summary
This bill requires the University of Texas Bureau of Economic Geology to conduct a study to identify locations suitable for aggregate production operations and locations that may become incompatible with such operations due to existing land use or planning policies. The Bureau must develop and maintain a database mapping these locations and provide it to political subdivisions. The Bureau must update this study and map at least once every 10 years. The Bureau may cooperate with state agencies, political subdivisions, universities, federal agencies, and private entities to fulfill these requirements. The Bureau must submit a report to the legislature by December 1, 2025, summarizing the study, providing the map, and making any recommendations for legislative action to preserve locations for aggregate production operations.
