The whole as shown on a map and in a technical description prepared by Robert Bussières, land surveyor, and filed respectively under Divers 80 and Divers 8/20 in the Service de l’arpentage et de la géodésie of the Ministère des Ressources naturelles on 28 October 1971.

The coordinates shown above are given in metres and were surveyed graphically on the basis of the U.T.M. squaring used on maps drawn to a scale of 1:50,000 published by the Department of Energy, Mines and Resources of Canada and were based on an altimetric point used by Hydro-Québec, situated at Manigance Rapid and whose elevation is 103.5573 m above sea level.
