- (b) **Approved maps.** The four United States Geological Survey 1:24,000 scale topographic maps used to determine the boundary of the Leona Valley viticultural area are titled:
  - (1) Ritter Ridge, Calif., 1958; Photorevised 1974;
  - (2) Sleepy Valley, CA, 1995;
  - (3) Del Sur, CA, 1995; and
  - (4) **Lake Hughes, CA, 1995.**
- (c) **Boundary.** The Leona Valley viticultural area is located in Los Angeles County, California. The boundary of the Leona Valley viticultural area is as described below:

  - (2) Proceed west along the 3,000-foot elevation line to its intersection with the [section 23](/cfr/27/23.md) west boundary line, T6N, R13W; then
  - (3) Proceed south along the [section 23](/cfr/27/23.md) west boundary line to the southwest corner of [section 23](/cfr/27/23.md) at the 3,616-foot marked elevation point, T6N, R13W; then
  - (4) Proceed west along the [section 22](/cfr/27/22.md) south boundary line, crossing onto the Sleepy Valley map, and continuing along the [section 21](/cfr/27/21.md) south boundary line, crossing over Pine Creek, to its intersection with the 3,400-foot elevation line, T6N, R13W; then
  - (5) Proceed west along the 3,400-foot elevation line to its intersection with the [section 19](/cfr/27/19.md) south boundary line and Bouquet Canyon Road, T6N, R13W; then
  - (6) Proceed straight west along the [section 19](/cfr/27/19.md) south boundary line to its intersection with the 3,560-foot elevation line, an unimproved road, and a power transmission line, north of Lincoln Crest, T6N, R13W; then
  - (7) Proceed northeast along the 3,560-foot elevation line across [section 19](/cfr/27/19.md) to its east boundary line, T6N, R13W; then
  - (8) Proceed in a straight line north-northwest approximately 0.25 mile to its intersection with a trail and the 3,800-foot elevation line, T6N, R13W; then
  - (9) Proceed northwest along the meandering 3,800-foot elevation line through [section 19](/cfr/27/19.md) to its intersection with the [section 13](/cfr/27/13.md) southeast corner, T6N, R14W; then
  - (10) Proceed straight west, followed by straight north, along the marked Angeles National Forest border to the [section 11](/cfr/27/11.md) southeast corner; then
  - (11) Proceed straight north along the [section 11](/cfr/27/11.md) east boundary line to its intersection with the 3,400-foot elevation line south of an unimproved road, T6N, R14W; then
  - (12) Proceed generally northwest along the 3,400-foot elevation line through [section 11](/cfr/27/11.md), crossing onto the Del Sur map, to its intersection with the [section 3](/cfr/27/3.md) southeast corner, T6N, R14W; then
  - (13) Proceed straight west to the [section 4](/cfr/27/4.md) southeast corner, T6N, R14W; then
