Editorial Notes CODIFICATION Words ‘‘Coast and Interior Survey’’ appearing in act Mar. 3, 1879, were in prior editions of the Code changed to ‘‘Coast and Geodetic Survey.’’ Congress never cre- ated a Coast and Interior Survey. In a communication dated Nov. 6, 1940, the Director of the Geological Sur- vey explained that the words ‘‘Coast and Interior Sur- vey’’ were inadvertently incorporated upon authority of report contained in Senate Misc. Doc. No. 9, 45th Congress, 3d Session, which recommended the ‘‘Coast and Geodetic Survey’’ be changed to ‘‘United States Coast and Interior Survey’’ and an organization be cre- ated in the Interior Department to be known as the ‘‘United States Geological Survey.’’ Congress adopted only the latter suggestion. Statutory Notes and Related Subsidiaries CHANGE OF NAME ‘‘United States Geological Survey’’ substituted in text for ‘‘Geological Survey’’ pursuant to provision of title I of Pub. L. 102–154, set out as a note under section 31 of Title 43, Public Lands. NATIONAL MUSEUM Establishment of the National Museum, see note set out under section 50 of this title.
