Title 16 › Chapter 1— NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES › Subchapter XXII— LASSEN VOLCANIC NATIONAL PARK › § 201a
Summary
Changes the Lassen Volcanic National Park boundary so the park includes the land inside new lines described by townships, ranges, section corners, and some natural features. The new boundary follows specific section and quarter‑section lines in township 30 north and township 31 north, ranges 4, 5, and 6 east of the Mount Diablo meridian. It also follows Lost Creek in one place and connects to parts of the park’s present boundary. All land that lies within those newly described lines and within the park’s existing boundary is added to Lassen Volcanic National Park.
