Section 1. Preparation and Siting (Section 1.4.1). A general map showing magnetic declination for the contiguous United States is shown in Figure 1.4-1. Declination angles east of True North are considered negative, and are subtracted from 0 degrees to get True North as shown Figure 1.4-2. Declination angles west of True North are con-sidered positive, and are added to 0 degrees to get True North as shown in Figure 1.4-3. For example, the declination for Logan, Utah is 16° East.
