WHEREAS, upon verification made by the Bureau of Lands of the technical description of the Province of Nueva Vizcaya embodied in Executive Order No. 157, dated July 10, 1948, it was found that due to clerical error committed in said Bureau the geographic location of the starting point of the boundary line between the Provinces of Nueva Vizcaya and Isabela has not been correctly stated;

N, and longitude 121° 23' 45.43? E. instead of latitude 16° 44' 33.087? N, and longitude 121° 29' 22.864? E.

Done in the City of Manila, this 12th day of August, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, and of the Independence of the Philippines, the third.
