AMENDING PROCLAMATION NO. 4346 RELATING TO THE ENLARGEMENT OF THE BUCK ISLAND REEF NATIONAL MONUMENT

The boundaries of the Buck Island Reef National Monument were enlarged by Proclamation No. 4346 of February 1, 1975. The description of those lands contained a typographical error.

Now, Therefore, I, Gerald R. Ford, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by Section 1(b) (vii) of Public Law 93-435 (88 Stat. 1210), and by virtue of the authority vested in me by Section 2 of the Act of June 8, 1906, 34 Stat. 225 (16 U.S.C. 431), and in order to correct a typographical error, do hereby amend the description of the lands described in Proclamation No. 4346 to read as follows:

Beginning at latitude 17°47'30" N, longitude 64° 36' 32" W; thence approximately 1000 feet to latitude 17° 47' 27" N, longitude 64° 36' 22" W; thence approximately 900 feet to latitude 17° 47' 18" N, longitude 64° 36' 22" W; thence approximately 1000 feet to latitude 17° 47' 15" N, longitude 64° 36' 32" W; thence approximately 1500 feet to latitude 17° 47' 30" N, longitude 64° 36' 32" W, the place of beginning, embracing an area of approximately 30 acres.

In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-eighth day of March, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred seventy-five, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred ninety-ninth.

GERALD R. FORD
