Republic of El Salvador; Receipt of Cultural Property Request

AGENCY: United States Information Agency.

ACTION: Notice of Receipt of Cultural Property Request from the 
Republic of El Salvador.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Republic of El Salvador has submitted a cultural property 
request to the Government of the United States under Article 9 of the 
1970 UNESCO Convention. The request was received on January 13, 1995, 
by the United States Information Agency. The request seeks U.S. 
protection of certain categories of archaeological material the pillage 
of which, it is alleged, jeopardizes the national cultural patrimony of 
El Salvador. In accordance with the provisions of the Convention on 
Cultural Property Implementation Act (19 U.S.C. 2603 et al) the request 
will be reviewed by the Cultural Property Advisory Committee which will 
develop recommendations before a determination is made.
