Coverage and boundary description
- Executive Order No. 455 applies to the territorial boundary of the municipality of Buenavista, Bohol.
- The municipal boundary is readjusted by adopting the following geographic line definition beginning at point 1 and ending back at point 1 (the point of beginning).
- The line starts from point 1 marked “aXa” on a boulder of 2 m. diameter located on the right bank of Malijao creek.
- The boundary then follows successive courses and distances to enumerated points and topographic features (bridges and mountain peaks).
Boundary line: points 1 to 8
- From point 1 on the right bank of Malijao creek, the boundary runs S. 30° 15' E., 1,051.2 meters to point 2 on Malijao bridge.
- From point 2, the boundary runs S. 62° 45' E., 6,320.5 meters to point 3 on top of Mt. Campamingao.

Marine boundary integration
- After reaching the left bank of the mouth of the Baugo River, the boundary runs by following the boundary of the marine waters that the municipality shall have under Section 2321 of the Revised Administrative Code.
- The boundary defined above continues “to point 1,” restoring the loop to the point of beginning.
Amendment of prior municipal boundaries
- Executive Order No. 455 amends Executive Order No. 373 dated January 29, 1960 insofar as it concerns the boundaries of the municipality of Buenavista.
- The boundary readjustment is treated as a direct replacement/amendment of the previous boundary definition for Buenavista under Executive Order No. 373, limited to Buenavista’s municipal boundaries.
Incorporation of local basis
- The boundary description is identified as based on Resolution No. 442 dated October 12, 1960 of the Provincial Board of Bohol.
