Abstract

VII.40 Huascaran National Park (Peru)

The Bureau at its twentieth extraordinary session recalled that the Committee, at its nineteenth session recommended to the Peruvian authorities that a cultural resources inventory of the site be carried out and asked for clarification on the road developments which may threaten the integrity of the site. The Bureau noted that no reply had been received to a letter addressed to the State Party.

The Bureau reiterated the request by the World Heritage Committee that: (a) a cultural resources inventory of the site be carried out; (b) ICOMOS be kept informed about this inventory, and (c) clarifications be provided on the road developments which may threaten the integrity of the site. The Bureau requested that this information be provided by 15 April 1997.
