“Beginning at point 1, the intersection of Buug-Kumalarang municipal boundary and the shoreline of Dumanguillas Bay; thence, due North until it intersects the Provincial boundary of Zamboanga del Sur and Zamboanga del Norte called point 2; thence, following the provincial boundary in Easterly direction with a distance of 9.5 kms. called point 3; thence, due South to the outlet of Lake Wood called point 4; thence, following Kumalarang river downstream to point 5, junction of Kumalarang and Gawil river; thence, in Southwest direction to Buyugan Primary School called point 6; thence, in straight Southwest direction to the mouth of Bualan river called point 7; thence, following the shoreline in a counter clockwise direction to point 1, the point of beginning.” (From the technical description prepared by the Office of the Highway District Engineer of Zamboanga del Sur based on Resolution No. 555, series of 1964 of the Provincial road of Zamboanga del Sur.)
