The same page says the follows:
"DETAILS OF THE STANDARD OF RAUL LEONI MUNICIPALITY
WHITE STRIPE: represent the purity of the inhabitants of the
Municipality, because they are dedicated to the creator work in
diverse areas.
BLUE STRIPE: represent the sky an it reflection on Guri Lake.
Besides represent the rivers around the Municipality
DARK YELLOW STRIPE: represent the diverse minerals which are into
the Municipality".
This is to say, the inferior stripe is dark yellow not red.

General information in Spanish (no English Wikipedia page at
the moment).
Though the image surely shows the bottom stripe in red, only
slightly orangish, the text in the mentioned blog post says that
it is rather ochre yellow, standing for mineral ores; blue, by
the way, stands for the sky and for local rivers and lake Guri,
and white the locals purity.
Official site is <raulleoni-bolivar.gob.ve>
, but its page about the local flag shows the photo of a flagless
facility. The "Coat of Arms" emblem is shown. The
emblem seems to be centered on the hoist side half of the white
stripe.

Formerly Raúl Leoni, the municipality's name has been Angostura since June 2009, not to be confused with Angostura del Orinoco. No change in flag.
