The colors of the flag of El Chaco are celestial blue, white and green, with
the following characteristics:
a) Rectangular, with dimensions 1.15 m in
width and 1.80 m in length, divided into two equal horizontal stripes, celestial
blue and green.
b) A white triangle covers the left part, whose vertex
reaches 1/3 of the flag's length and the half of its width.
c) The triangle
charged with a sun whose longer points represent the parish and the lower shine
and provide natural life.
d) Celestial blue means the power of the celestial
vault and the several rivers that water the canton.
e) Green means the
generosity of agriculture and cattle-breeding.
f) White is a symbol of the
inhabitants' peace, joy and force, and of the abundant milk production that
generates economical welfare.
