Supposed diameter of the seal is half the flag’s height, and supposed
ratio is 2:3.

The flag of the province is blue with coat of arms (more
like seal) in its center. The
pictures
of the flag and the coat
of arms at the
official website
are not very good. As far as I can understand, the flag was adopted in
1986.

The flag of Chepén was adopted in 1986 by the Provincial Council
presided by Alcalde Don Walter Quesquén Terrones. It is made of
a celeste blue field with the provincial coat of arms
in the middle.

This coat of arms is more like a seal.

In 1984, the province of Chepén was created. Alcalde Cristian Díaz
Prado requested the design of a coat of arms, based on ideas proposed
by Councillor Don Joe Medina Astudillo . The coat of arms was designed
by Don Segundo Ruiz.

It shows a map of the province (with dots for Chepén, Pacanga and Pueblo
Nuevo, but not Talambo, the fourth district of this province) on wheat and
maize ears tied with a ribbon patterned after the Peruvian
national flag on a light blue disc (seemingly lighter than the flag
background). This is encllosed in a red and white rim, divided per saltire in
four quarters, reading the motto «Generosa y Viril»
(«Generous and Manly»!) at the top, «Provincia de
Chepén» at the bottom, «Ley 23910» on the
left and «8 Set. 1984» on the right, all in bold serif
capitals, white on red (top and bottom) and black on white (left and
right).

A photo
at the official website shows a plain blue flag flying along the
national flag of Peru in what seems to be an official location.
