6/34 SANTIAGO
August 12, 1954
(1270/12/54)
SANTIAGO WHALING CONFERENCE, 1952
No. 141 (Rec’d. Sept. 5 )
Her Britannic Majesty’s Embassy present their compliments to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and have the honour, under instructions from Her Majesty’s Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to inform them that it has come to the attention of Her Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom that the delegates of Chile, Ecuador and Peru attending the first conference on the exploitation and preservation of the maritime riches of the South Pacific, signed at Santiago on the 18th of August, 1952, a declaration regarding maritime zones. In this declaration the Governments of Chile, Ecuador and Peru purport to claim exclusive sovereignty and jurisdiction over the sea which washes the coasts of their respective countries up to a distance of 200 sea miles, in which exclusive sovereignty and jurisdiction they also include exclusive sovereignty and jurisdiction over the soil and sub-soil in the maritime zone or area defined. The declaration further purports to make provision for the regulation of fishing and whaling in the maritime zone.
2. Her Majesty’s Government regret that they cannot recognize the validity of these claims, and wish to remind the Government of Chile of the attitude of Her Majesty’s Government concerning territorial waters, sovereignty over areas of the sea bed and sub-soil and the regulation of fishing.
3. Her Majesty’s Government do not in principle recognize claims to a greater limit of territorial waters than three miles from low watermark, or, in the case of bays and estuaries, from a closing line drawn at the first point where they narrow to ten miles in width. Her Majesty’s Government regard all sea areas outside these limits as part of the High Seas, on which (apart from exceptions not here material) vessels are subject solely to the jurisdiction and control of the State of their flag, and would therefore be unable to admit the claim of the Government of Chile to exercise jurisdiction and control in these areas over any vessels other than Chilean vessels.
494
Annex 60
4. Her Majesty’s Government, while not opposed in principle to claims for the exercise of sovereignty over the seabed contiguous to the coast of Chile, are unable to accept the claim set forth in the declaration of the 18th of August, 1952, which purports to define the Continental Shelf as extending to the unprecedented distance of 200 nautical miles from the coast of Chile without regard to the depth of the sea. Her Majesty’s Government would refer in this context to the articles on the Continental Shelf adopted by the International Law Commission at its fifth session. Article I states that the term “Continental Shelf” as used in the Articles refers to the seabed and sub-soil of the submarine areas contiguous to the coast, but outside the area of the territorial sea, to a depth of 200 metres. Article III states that the rights of the coastal state over the Continental Shelf do not affect the legal status of the superjacent waters as high seas. Article VI, section 1, states that the exploration of the Continental Shelf and the exploitation of its natural resources must not result in any unjustifiable interference with navigation, fishing or fish production. In the opinion of Her Majesty’s Government these articles are in general accordance with accepted principles of International Law.
5. Her Majesty’s Government also recognize that the conservation of natural resources in the high seas outside territorial waters may be a legitimate interest of the coastal State; but this is only on condition that Conservation is effected by agreement with those States to whose nationals the conservation measures are to be applied. Her Majesty’s Government note however with regret that the declaration of the 18th of August, 1952, claims to establish conservation over the high seas in concert only with the Governments of Ecuador and Peru, without any such agreement with the other governments which may be concerned. Her Majesty’s Government are therefore obliged to place firmly on record with the Government of Chile that, until an agreement has been reached to which Her Majesty’s Government are a party, they do not recognize, and will not consider their nationals as being subject to, any measures of restriction or control over the high seas outside territorial waters as recognized by Her Majesty’s Government which the Government of Chile may see fit to promulgate in pursuance of the declaration.
6. Her Majesty’s Embassy avail themselves of this opportunity to renew to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs the assurance of their highest consideration.

NOTE TO THE MINISTER OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS

No. 5-20-M/18
Panama, 13 August 1954
Minister,
The Government of Peru has received reports that Panamanian flag vessels are preparing to conduct hunting and fishing operations off the coast of Peru, in areas in which they could easily make incursions into Peruvian territorial waters.

Peru’s position with respect to its territorial sea is grounded in the Supreme Decree of 1 August 1947, in article 14 paragraph 4 of Law No. 11780 of 12 March 1952 and in the Declaration on the Maritime Zone signed in Santiago on 18 August 1952 by Peru, Chile and Ecuador.
T
he Decree of 1 August 1947 stated that national sovereignty and jurisdiction extends over the submarine platform adjacent to the continental and insular coasts of the national territory and that to reserve, protect, maintain and utilize natural resources it states that it will exercise control and protection over the sea adjacent to the coast of the Peruvian territory in a zone between the coast and an imaginary parallel line to it at a distance of two hundred nautical miles, without affecting the right to free navigation according to International Law.
Art. 14 of Law 11780, also known as the “Petroleum Law”, defines as Continental Shelf the zone laying between the western limit of the coastal line and an imaginary line drawn seaward at a constant distance of 200 miles from the low-water line of the continental coastline.
On 18 August 1952 the Declaration on the Maritime Zone was signed in Santiago by Delegates from Peru, Chile and Ecuador [and was] subsequently approved by the respective Governments. That Declaration, of which I am pleased to attach a copy for Your Excellency, establishes that the former extension of the territorial sea and the contiguous zone are now insufficient for the conservation, development and exploitation of maritime resources to which the coastal countries are entitled. The three participating States proclaim, as a rule of their international maritime policy, sovereignty and exclusive jurisdiction over the sea that washes the coasts of their respective countries up to a distance of 200 nautical miles. The Declaration does not mean repudiation of the necessary limitations set by International Law in favour of the innocent and inoffensive passage of ships of all nations.
Your Excellency’s Government has also established solemnly that the submarine continental shelf is included in the national territory and has adopted decisions showing that it shares the inclination to consider that the restrictive classical concept of the three miles regarding the sovereignty over the territorial sea has currently been superseded.
Based on these legal concepts that are now generally accepted and especially in the traditionally cordial friendship which has united our peoples and Governments, I have received express instructions from my Government to request Your Excellency to notify the ships of its nationality to respect the sovereignty and jurisdiction of Peru over its territorial waters and that they refrain from carrying out hunting and fishing operations therein for which they have not been authorized by the Government of my Country.
The Peruvian Government has full confidence that its friend, the Government of Panama, will not fail promptly to respond and accept this request, which is being made in view of the traditional ties that bind them.

In this regard, I have now received instructions to express to the Government of Your Excellency, the disappointment of the Government of the United States. Despite previous indications of non-recognition of the Peruvian claim of sovereignty over the sea up to 200 miles from its coasts, the Government of Peru has signed in Santiago on 18 August 1952 the Declaration on the Maritime Zone which reiterates the Peruvian claim and furthermore seeks to lay the foundation for the regulation of fishing and whale hunting in the established maritime area.
T
he Government of the United States considers that the position of Peru is inconsistent with the articles on the Continental Shelf adopted by the United Nations Commission on International Law at its Fifth Session, which the United States considers to be generally representative of international law. The claims of jurisdiction by Peru over a large area of high seas cannot be recognized by the United States, which considers, in accordance with international law, that there is no obligation to recognize claims over territorial waters which exceed three miles from the low-water line on the coast.

T
he Royal Government of Norway has taken note of the fact that the representatives of the Governments of Chile, Ecuador and Peru signed on 18 August 1952, a Declaration which claimed - on behalf of their respective Governments - sovereignty and exclusive jurisdiction on the sea along the coasts of the three countries up to a distance of two hundred nautical miles.
T
he Government of Norway admits that the breadth of the territorial sea varies slightly from one country to another. Nonetheless, the claims made in the Declaration of 18 August 1952 would entail an extension of territorial sea of the three countries that exceeds the historically established and recognized limits, comprising vast areas of sea, subject, in accordance with public international law, to the regime of the high seas. The Norwegian Government is therefore obliged to submit its formal reservations to the Government of Peru with respect to the rights of Norway and its subjects on the high seas along the coasts of Peru, especially regarding fishing, hunting and navigation.
T
he Legation of Norway takes this opportunity to renew to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs the assurances of its highest consideration.

It has been called to the attention of the Government of Sweden that the delegates of Peru, in a conference between Peru, Chile and Ecuador, concerning the use and conservation of maritime resources in the South Pacific in August 1952, proclaimed exclusive sovereignty and jurisdiction over the territory of the sea beyond the coasts of the country, up to a minimum distance of 200 nautical miles, which includes exclusive sovereignty and jurisdiction over the seabed within the same territory as well as the right to regulate fishing and whale hunting within the territory.
For this reason, the Government of Sweden would like to recall that the norms of the international law of the sea have been included by the United Nations among the subjects that will be codified and that, for this reason, the International Legal Commission of the United Nations has made a draft proposal of norms on the continental shelf, which is defined as “the sea-bed and subsoil of the submarine areas contiguous to the coast, but outside the area of territorial waters.” It is expressly stated in the proposal that the rights granted to the coastal countries over the continental shelf shall not affect the free-sea nature of the aquatic area above the seabed.

My Government’s attention was drawn to the fact that representatives of the Governments of Peru, Ecuador and Chile stated, in a Declaration of 18 August 1952, claims to sovereignty and jurisdiction over the sea off the coasts of the three countries up to a distance of two hundred nautical miles from the coast. It is clear to the Government of Denmark that the extension of the maritime territory varies somewhat from country to country. This issue must be addressed by the International Law Commission, appointed by the United Nations, and the aforementioned Commission have already prepared a draft convention on the continental shelf. It is proposed in this draft convention, among other things, that the rights of each State over the continental shelf will have no effect on the free-sea nature of the water territories located over the shelf.
With regard to the extension of the maritime territory, Denmark cannot recognize an area as wide as the one referred to in the above-mentioned declaration of 18 August 1952, according to which all nations would be deprived of very large dominions on the sea which under international law belong to the free sea and are subject to the free use by all nations.
T
herefore, the Government of Denmark is forced to make serious complaints against the above-mentioned claims and to make strong reservations against the application of these measures to Danish citizens and ships.

MEMORANDUM
On 18 August 1952, the Governments of Peru, Chile and Ecuador signed a declaration whereby they claimed sovereignty and exclusive jurisdiction over the sea along the coasts of the three countries up to a distance of two hundred nautical miles.
T
he Government of Peru will not ignore that the question of the boundary of the territorial waters has led to some differences of opinion among the different Governments.
All the Governments are interested in this issue as much in the interests of navigation as for the protection and preservation of maritime resources.
T
hese problems are the subject of study and negotiations by the competent bodies of the United Nations, especially within the International Law Commission. The Government of the Netherlands expects that the Government of Peru will recognize the value of this method in order to find a solution to the aforementioned problems. Although the works of the International Law Commission have not yet been completed, there is no doubt that the above-mentioned declaration implies an extension of the territorial waters of the three countries, largely surpassing the limits generally recognized by international law and covering vast portions of the ocean subject to the regime of the high seas.
T
herefore the Government of the Netherlands is obliged to formally reserve its rights and those of its citizens with respect to the declaration of 18 August 1952.

LIMA, 20 June 1961
Minister,
I have the pleasure of referring to the talks held with Your Excellency and with the Minister of Navy early last May, concerning the situation that has been affecting for some time the industrial fishing companies in Arica due to the movement of the schools of anchovies along the frontier zone of both countries within an area of approximately 100 miles, that is to say, 50 miles into each country. This movement is particularly worrying given the frequency with which the companies of the ports of Arica and Ilo are forced to cease their operations for long periods due to the lack of fish, when these have migrated to the neighbouring country.
To overcome this difficulty, the respective authorities of Chile and Peru would agree to accept tolerance, exceptionally, for fishing vessels of more than 10 registered tons, belonging
546
Annex 72
Annex 72
547
to national industries established currently in Arica and Ilo and which are registered before these maritime authorities, under the following conditions:
1.- Such vessels may engage in any type of fishing in the zone of maritime jurisdiction of both countries along the area comprised between 50 miles to the North and to the South of the Chile-Peru frontier. [The fishermen] shall not purchase nor transfer the produce extracted by other vessels in this area. It is strictly forbidden to approach the relevant coast of the 50-mile zone of tolerance.

he Embassy of Peru has informed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on various occasions, in a friendly manner, of the frequency with which Chilean fishing vessels have trespassed into Peruvian waters, at times up to 300 metres from the beach, as demonstrated by the photographs taken recently, which have served to substantiate the allegations made before the supreme Government by the Peruvian frontier authorities.
All of these cases concerned vessels that were not of small carriage and whose owners could not ignore that the vessels were entering foreign waters. Also, the frequency with which these incursions occur constitutes evidence that they are done for a specific purpose.
As a natural reaction, the constant repetition of these events has been creating a climate of protest among local fishermen, who have been demanding that the authorities implement measures to put an end to this situation.
G
iven the cordial spirit that guides the relationship between Peru and Chile, which is characteristic of the intelligence which exists in matters of international maritime policy, the Government of Peru, taking strongly into account the sense and provisions of the “Agreement Relating to a Special Maritime Frontier Zone”, signed in Lima on 4 December 1954, wishes the Government of Chile, particularly through the competent authorities of the port of Arica, to adopt measures to put an end to these illegitimate incursions, and that the owners of fishing vessels be notified that they must refrain from continuing to fish north of the Peru-Chile frontier.
T
he Government of Peru is hoping that such measures and warnings will prevent the need for implementation of the orders on surveillance and capture of fishing boats that violate the jurisdictional waters.

Regarding the Memorandum of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Chile, dated 28 March of this year, concerning the alleged incursion into Chilean waters of the Peruvian corvette “Diez Canseco” on 22 March, the Embassy of Peru, in compliance with instructions from his Government, provides the following information:
1) – On 22 March 1966, at 05:30 hours, the B.A.P “Diez Canseco” set sail from the Caleta de Sama on a patrol mission, navigating along the Peruvian coast towards the south, between two to three miles away from the coast.
2) – At 07:15 hours, the Corvette being in the vicinity of the mouth of the Sama River, changed its course towards land with the purpose of patrolling the coast in the area of La Yarada and Los Palos. At 08:00 hours the position of the vessel was 18° 14' [S], 70° 36' W, i.e., 7 miles north of the frontier line and at a distance of 1 mile away from the coast. At 08:05 [the Corvette] caught sight of a boat in true bearing 120° (approximately in front of Los Palos, 1 mile away from the coast, three and a half miles north of the frontier line), and two other ships in true bearing 140° (approximately, in front of Los Palos, 3 miles away from the coast, 2 miles north of the
560
Annex 75
Annex 75
561
frontier line): all of them at about 4 or 5 miles from the Corvette and sailing South. The B.A.P. “Diez Canseco” manoeuvred to intercept the vessel that was in direction 120°. At 08:20, this boat was identified visually as it hoisted the Chilean national flag. At 08:25 hours, while the Corvette was at a distance of 18° 18' [S], 70° 30' W (3 miles north of the frontier line and one and a half mile away from the coast), it fired 16 canon shots of 20mm in order to intimidate the Chilean boat, which was 4,000 yards away, which positioned the purse-net fishing boat [the Chilean boat] approximately about one and a half mile north of the frontier line and one and a half away from the coast. The Chilean boat did not stop (it could not be identified by name or number), and at 08:35, while the boat was crossing the frontier line, the B.A.P. “Diez Canseco” abandoned the pursuit, changing its course to the West. At that time the Corvette was located at 18° 19' [S], 70° 28' W; i.e. 2 miles north of the frontier line.
3) – It can then be concluded from the above that the B.A.P. “Diez Canseco” did at no time cross the frontier line, the B.A.P. “Diez Canseco” chased a Chilean purse-net fishing boat in front of Los Palos, 1 mile away from the coast and three and a half miles from the frontier line; the B.A.P. “Diez Canseco” fired warning shots when the Chilean purse-net fishing boat was at one and a half mile north
562
Annex 75
of the frontier line, the B.A.P. “Diez Canseco” abandoned the pursuit when the Chilean purse-net fishing boat crossed the frontier line. At that time the Corvette was 2 miles north of the same [line].

During a meeting held today with the Director-General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ambassador of Peru denounced new acts violating the Peruvian maritime frontier committed recently by forty-four Chilean vessels, as well as illegal incursions by two planes of the same nationality, on the following occasions:
1.- On 16 March of this year, 14 Chilean boats were spotted fishing in Peruvian waters off the beach of La Yarada.
2.- On the same occasion, a twin-engine plane of Chilean nationality appeared and returned towards the south after circling over the aforementioned boats.
3.- On 14 April, fourteen fishing boats were spotted with flags raised, but with names and numbers covered; nevertheless, three of them were identified by the numbers 1684, 1685 and 1689.
4.- On the same occasion, a twin-engine plane was spotted, green in colour, which flew overhead for a period of 20 minutes, before returning towards the south.

6.- On 20 April, three schooners were seen in the vicinity of Los Palos beach. One of them, the “Yadran”, which belongs to Pesquera Iquique, was detained under the command of the skipper Mr. Ivo Tipic.
7.- On 22 April, the Chilean fishing vessel “Venus”, with licence from Arica, was spotted in Peruvian waters.
8.- On 7 May, eleven Chilean vessels were spotted in Peruvian waters. As in the case of the vessels spotted on 14 April, these also had their numbers and names covered.
9.- On 13 May, the Chilean schooner “Azapa”, with licence from Arica, was spotted in Peruvian waters by a Peruvian patrol boat, which attempted to intercept it unsuccessfully, since it did not follow the order to cut its engines and fled on a course heading south. The Peruvian patrol boat fired three warning shots with a Fal rifle, without reverting to more heavy firepower due to the proximity of fishermen’s homes.

Por tal razón, el Honorable Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores tuvo a bien solicitar que el Gobierno del Perú procediera a obtener de la casa editora mencionada la rectificación necesaria a fin de que no quedara duda acerca de que el límite hasta el cual pudo ser otorgada una concesión cualquiera debía corresponder al paralelo del punto extremo de la frontera territorial norte del Perú, sin extenderse a región alguna del territorio ecuatoriano, ya que, de sobrepasarse esta línea, se habría incurrido en una manifiesta violación de instrumentos internacionales vigentes en los cuales expresamente se ha pactado el límite internacional de las aguas jurisdiccionales, que lo es también, en virtud de los mismos instrumentos, el del suelo y subsuelo que a ellas corresponden.
La nota en cuestión termina expresando el deseo de recibir información acerca de las medidas adoptadas por el Gobierno peruano para obtener la rectificación de dicho mapa y evitar en el futuro la repetición de tales errores.
En respuesta, la Embajada del Perú se complace en expresar al Honorable Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores que el Gobierno del Perú, en atención a la gestión antes mencionada, ha efectuado ya por intermedio de la Embajada peruana en Suiza la representación del caso ante la casa editora a fin de que proceda a la correspondiente rectificación, información que el Embajador del Perú se permitió adelantar a Su Excelencia el Ministro de Relaciones Exteriores, en audiencia del 10 del presente mes.
En confirmación de lo anterior, la Embajada del Perú se permite acompañar a la presente nota un ejemplar del mapa correspondiente al mes de agosto de 1969 (Foreign Scouting Service; Perú: NW Coastal Zone – Consessions – Important Dry Holes - Oil Fields – Currente Activity – Scale 1:200,000; Petroconsultants S.A; Petroleum & Mining Consultants, Geneva, Switzerland), en el cual puede apreciarse que el límite internacional está correctamente señalado, habiéndose incluido, a mayor abundamiento, sobre la línea del paralelo de la Boca de Capones (límite territorial norte del Perú), la siguiente leyenda: “Generally recognized offshore boundary between Perú and Ecuador (0° 23' 33.96" S)”.

For this reason, the Honourable Ministry of Foreign Affairs [of Ecuador] requested that the Government of Peru obtain, from the above-mentioned publisher, the necessary rectification in order that there be no doubt that the limit up to which a concession may be granted should correspond to the parallel of the extreme point of Peru’s northern territorial frontier, without extending to any region in the Ecuadorean territory. If this line were to be transgressed, a manifest violation would be committed against the international instruments in force which establish the international boundary of the jurisdictional waters, which, according to the same instruments, is also [the international boundary] of the soil and subsoil corresponding to these waters.
T
he note in question ends by expressing the wish to receive information about the measures taken by the Peruvian Government to obtain the rectification of the map and prevent future recurrences of such errors.
In response, the Embassy of Peru is pleased to express to the Honourable Ministry of Foreign Affairs that the Government of Peru, in response to the abovementioned matter, through the Peruvian Embassy in Switzerland, has already presented the case to the publisher in order for it to proceed with the corresponding rectification. The Ambassador of Peru was allowed to advance this information to his Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs, at the hearing of the 10th of this month.

I am writing to you with regards to the capture of the Peruvian artisanal fishing vessel “Elbia y Rosario” which was apprehended on 11 April approximately 78 nautical miles away from the coast and 06 nautical miles to the south of the “Special Maritime Frontier Zone”.
It is worth noting that the Agreement relating to a “Special Maritime Frontier Zone” signed by Peru, Chile and Ecuador in 1954 establishes that the referred Zone is [located] “…at a distance of 12 nautical miles from the coast, extending to a breadth of 10 nautical miles wide…”. Thus, this vessel was located in the said Zone and without catch. Therefore one would presume that its presence was accidental and could not be considered a violation of the Chilean jurisdictional waters.
Also, the owner of this Peruvian vessel indicates that the engine was damaged due to the towing of the vessel by the Chilean naval patrol, and that this may have negative implications for its return to Peru.

T
he Ministry of Foreign Affairs – National Directorate of Sovereignty and Boundaries – presents its regards to the Honourable Embassy of Chile in Peru in order to request that it pass on to its Government the objection of the Government of Peru to the violation of its maritime dominion on the part of the Chilean patrol boat B.A.CH. “Fresia”, with identification number 1608, on 16 October.
T
he abovementioned incident occurred on the said date while the Peruvian Coastguard patrol boat B.A.P. “Río Zaña” was anchored at the GPS position 18° 20.65' S and 070° 23.25' W, on a straight bearing of 155° from Punta Arica, at a distance of 7.8 miles and 740 yards from the coast, in waters indisputably under Peruvian sovereignty and jurisdiction.
At 08:15 on that day, the Commander of the B.A.P. “Río Zaña” identified by radar two contacts, one aerial and another one on the surface, heading towards its unit. At 08:25, a twin-engine plane flew over the area at low altitude, from west to east, slightly south of its position, before leaving the area. Given these events, the Commander of the Peruvian Coastguard communicated with his Commanding office in order to inform it of what had happened, and received the order to set sail in its capacity as maritime police in order to prevent any type of incident from occurring.
While the Peruvian unit was weighing anchor, the B.A.CH. “Fresia” approached up to 300 yards south of the B.A.P. “Río Zaña”, hailing by VHF-FM radio channel 16 that the Peruvian Coastguard was 200 yards inside of waters under Chilean jurisdiction. The Commander of the Peruvian unit indicated that it was within waters under Peruvian sovereignty and jurisdiction; having proceeded to verify their positions, the B.A.P. “Río Zaña” confirmed its position. It was at this moment that the Chilean patrol boat B.A.CH. “Fresia” encircled the Peruvian Coastguard, crossing the bow of the B.A.P. “Río Zaña” at a distance of 150 yards, heading away on a straight bearing of 291°, entering into Peruvian waters.
678
Annex 101
At 08:35, the Coastguard B.A.P. “Río Zaña” anchored at latitude 18° 20.02' S and longitude 070° 23.4' W, on a straight bearing of 149.7° from Punta Arica and at a distance of 8.58 miles. The Chilean unit was in turn anchored 1.52 miles south of the position of the B.A.P. “Río Zaña”, on a straight bearing of 193° from said unit, where it remained until 14:50.
Taking into account the benefit and necessity of avoiding this type of incident which, in one way or another, must affect the good relations between our two countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs – National Directorate of Sovereignty and Boundaries – takes this opportunity to renew to the Honourable Embassy of Chile in Peru, assurances of its highest and most distinguished regard.

ith respect to the statement recently made in the communications between the Harbour Master of Ilo and the Consulate General, challenging the existence of a maritime delimitation, it is appropriate to recall that [the maritime boundary] has been established by agreements in force for several decades, and has been respected by the constant practice of the countries. Therefore, no reference should be made to persistent contradictory positions in relation to these arrests.

In the said legal text, published on the website of the Peruvian Congress, the “List of the coordinates of the contributing points of the system of baselines of the Peruvian coastline” is established in Annex I. The coordinates 18º 21' 08" S Latitude South and 70º 22' 39" W Longitude West are indicated therein as point 266 “Point on the coast Peru-Chile International land Boundary”. The said coordinates do not coincide with the international boundary between both countries established by agreements in force.
I must inform Your Excellency that the aforementioned bill, as far as Chile is concerned, represents a flagrant disregard of the Chile-Peru boundary established by treaties such as those of 1952 and 1954, as well as other agreements referring to the parallel which constitutes the maritime boundary agreed between the two countries and internationally recognized, and which originates at the Boundary Marker number one.
T
he situation presented above, as well as the eventual approval of that bill, is not acceptable and does not have any legal effect on the Chilean Government.
I must point out the firm decision of the Government of Chile to continue exercising, fully, its sovereign and jurisdictional rights in the land and maritime areas which are its own, as it has done since its establishment, precisely, under International Law and the agreements linking it with Peru and which this bill pretends to ignore.

T
he exercise of the power to establish baselines according to international law, which States exercise through technical procedures generally applied in international practice, should not be confused with the determining of base points and maritime projections, which differ from what is established by the treaties in force and which also extend over areas of Chilean sovereignty and jurisdiction. In this regard, we hereby reiterate Note No. 17,192/05 of 28 October, as well as the Declaration of the Government of Chile on the maritime frontier between Chile and Peru, published in the Law of the Sea Information Circular of the Division of Ocean Affairs and Law of the Sea of the United Nations, LOSIC No. 15, of March 2002, in particular in relation to the confirmatory acts of maritime delimitation.
The Government of Chile affirms, once again, that given the full force and effect of the treaties of 1952 and 1954, as well as [the full force and effect of] other binding agreements which establish unequivocally the existence of the parallel fixing the maritime boundary between Chile and Peru located at 18° 21' 03" latitude South, the provisions that the Bill under study may contain with respect to the frontier between the two countries are devoid of any legal effect for Chile and the international community.
In this regard, it is not appropriate to take into account the suggestion that the Permanent Mixed Boundary Commission, created by the 1997 Agreement on the Preservation of Boundary Markers in the Common Frontier, be responsible for verifying coordinates such as the ones established by Point 266 of the Bill, which do not fall under the scope of its work. This Point does not coincide with measurements established by both countries and fails to recognize, and modifies, the agreed frontier line.
Also, it should be recalled that which the Government of Chile expressed in its Note No. 16,723 of 10 September 2004, is consistent with its unchanged position on the international treaties in force, which cannot be subject to negotiations for review.

Consequently, there are no acts confirming an international maritime boundary between the two countries.

Santiago, 12 August 2007
Ambassador,
It is my duty to address Your Excellency with the aim of referring to Supreme Decree No. 047-2007 published in El Peruano of today, which contains a “Map of the Exterior Limit – South Sector – of the Maritime Dominion of Peru” and refers to Law No. 28,621 of 3 November 2005.
In this respect, the Government of Chile reiterates in its entirety the content of Notes No. 17192/05 and No. 17359/05 of 28 October and 3 November 2005, respectively, in relation to the publication of the above-mentioned Law. On this matter, it is appropriate to indicate that the derogatory reference contained in article seven of Law No. 28,621 on Baselines, has no legal effect on anything that may imply disregard of the applicable agreements governing delimitation matters.
Concerning today’s publication of a new maritime projection by Peru, the Government of Chile states its formal protest against the disregard of the Chilean maritime spaces contained therein, in contradiction with the maritime delimitation between the two countries. [The maritime delimitation] has been established by fully valid and internationally recognized international treaties which establish the boundary at parallel 18° 21' 03" corresponding to Boundary Marker No. 1, which Peru has used in practice and which has been used by Chile in the continued exercise of the internationally recognized jurisdiction. For the above-mentioned reasons, the cartographic representation is unacceptable and has no effect on the matters relating to the sovereignty, the rights and the jurisdictions of Chile to the south of parallel 18° 21' 03".
The Government of Chile reaffirms that it will continue fully exercising the sovereign and jurisdictional powers that are applicable in its maritime spaces, in compliance with international law. So it has done for decades, since its establishment, in a permanent and exclusive way, and under the protection of the agreements binding Chile and Peru, in compliance with which the Government of Chile will continue acting for the complete safeguard of its sovereign rights.

[…]
La próxima reunión de Lima tiene por objeto dar carácter contractual a varias proposiciones y recomendaciones acordadas en la reunión de Santiago que sobrepasan la competencia de la Comisión Permanente, de manera que para su plena validez y eficacia requieren la aprobación de una Conferencia y la ulterior ratificación de los Poderes Públicos de los países respectivos. Por consiguiente, corresponde a esta Conferencia la aprobación y firma de un Convenio que reúna en un solo texto los acuerdos de la Comisión Permanente que se indican a continuación, y cuyas disposiciones deben formar parte integrante de los Instrumentos suscritos en la Primera Conferencia sobre Conservación y Explotación de las Riquezas Marítimas del Pacífico Sur. – (Tales). Tales acuerdos son los siguientes:
1°) Medidas para la Defensa Común del principio sobre soberanía en la Zona Marítima de 200 millas; 2°) Sistema de Sanciones en caso de infracción a los Reglamentos sobre Pesca y Caza Marítima; 3°) Medidas de Vigilancia y Control en las Zonas Marítimas de los Países signatarios; 4°) Reglamento General sobre otorgamiento de permisos para la Explotación de las Riquezas del Pacífico Sur; 5°) Reunión Anual de la Comisión Permanente; 6°) Establecimiento de una Zona Neutral en la frontera marina de los Países pactantes; 7°) Facilidades tributarias, cambiarias y crediticias, a favor de las actividades industriales de pesca y caza marítimas.
[…]
Me permito solicitar a US., asimismo, que con la discreción del caso, a fin de no aparecer durante el curso de la Conferencia solicitando al Perú ventajas especiales, se sirva gestionar ante ese Gobierno un cambio de notas con el de Chile en virtud del cual se conceda autorización a las compañías pesqueras chilenas y peruanas, en las mismas condiciones que a los nacionales de uno y otro país, a fin de que puedan realizar faenas de pesca dentro de las aguas territoriales contiguas a las provincias de Tarapacá y Antofagasta, en Chile, y a los Departamentos de Tacna y Arequipa, en Perú. Sobre este punto y respeto de cualquier aspecto técnico de la Conferencia, US. puede hacerse asesorar por el señor Ruiz Bourgeois, cuyo buen criterio y amplio conocimiento de las materias que han de constituir el objeto de esa Reunión, ofrecen a US. la posibilidad de disponer de una colaboración verdaderamente eficaz.

next meeting in Lima has the objective of giving a contractual nature to the different proposals and recommendations agreed in the meeting at Santiago, a task which exceeds the competence of the Permanent Commission, because in order for them to be valid and in force, they require the approval of a Conference and the subsequent ratification by the Public Powers of the respective countries. Thus, it is this Conference’s task to approve and sign an Agreement which gathers in a single document the agreements reached by the Permanent Commission. These agreements are indicated below, and their provisions should be part of the Instruments signed in the First Conference on the Conservation and Exploitation of the Maritime Resources of the South Pacific. Such agreements are the following:
1°) Measures for the Common Defence of the principle of sovereignty in the Maritime Zone of 200 miles; 2°) System of Sanctions in case of breach of the provisions of the Regulation on Fishing and Maritime Hunting; 3°) Measures of Surveillance and Control in the Maritime Zones of the signatory Countries; 4°) General Regulation on the granting of permits for the Exploitation of the Resources of the South Pacific; 5°) Annual meeting of the Permanent Commission; 6°) Establishment of a Neutral Area in the maritime frontier of the signatory Countries; 7°) Tax, currency exchange and credit allowances in favour of the fishing and maritime hunting activities.
[…]
I kindly request you as well to request Peru, discreetly in order not to appear during the Conference to be requesting special advantages, to arrange for an exchange of notes between the said Government and the Government of Chile through which authorization is granted to Peruvian and Chilean fishing companies, under the same terms as to the nationals of one and the other country, to carry out fishing activities within the territorial waters contiguous to the provinces of Tarapacá and Antofagasta in Chile, and the Departments of Tacna and Arequipa in Peru. On this matter and in relation to any technical matter of the Conference, you might be advised by Mr. Ruiz Bourgeois, whose good judgement and broad knowledge over the matters to be treated in the Meeting will give you the possibility of carrying out a truly efficient collaboration.

As you are aware, at the Second Conference on the Conservation and Exploitation of Maritime Resources of the South Pacific, which took place in Lima, an agreement was reached with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of this country, in that the Governments of Chile and Peru would instruct their maritime authorities not to interfere with fishing or hunting operations undertaken by Chilean or Peruvian vessels in the territorial waters of the other country between 12 and 200 miles from the coast. The relevant order would be given in writing, exchanging a copy of the text without further formalities.
In compliance with the above, this Secretariat of State has proceeded to request the Ministry of National Defence to give the necessary instructions so that fishing and hunting operations by Peruvian vessels in the zone in question are not interfered with.
I should be grateful if you would bring this to the attention of [the Peruvian] Government and arrange that similar instructions be given to the Peruvian maritime authorities.

Minister,
In the confidential letter of this Ministry, No. 68, of 27 November, you instructed me to negotiate with the Government of Peru an agreement by virtue of which authorization would be given to the Peruvian and Chilean Fishing Companies, under the same conditions as the nationals of both countries, so that they may undertake fishing activities within the territorial waters contiguous to the Provinces of Tarapaca and Antofagasta in Chile, and the Departments of Tacna and Arequipa in Peru.
During the deliberations of the Second Conference on the Conservation and Exploitation of the Maritime Resources of the South Pacific, held in this city, an agreement was reached with the Foreign Minister Dr. Aguilar Cornejo – after having studied this matter with the Legal Advisor Mr. Cruz Ocampo – in order for the Governments of Chile and Peru to instruct their maritime authorities not to interfere with the fishing activities undertaken by Chilean or Peruvian vessels in territorial waters of the other country. This was the preferred method, rather than an exchange of notes, so as not to affect the agreement relating to a special maritime frontier zone, which was also signed by Ecuador.
This issue is referred to in your confidential letter No. 6, of 31 January, which I have just received, and in which you instruct me to negotiate with the Peruvian Government the adoption of the necessary measures, informing me that our Minister of National Defence has already been instructed in an identical manner by your Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

1.- Como es conocimiento de UD. en diversas oportunidades nuestros pescadores han efectuado sus faenas de pesca en aguas territoriales Peruanas, lo que está estrictamente prohibido.
2.- El límite de pesca de las aguas de la jurisdicción chilena termina por el norte en la Línea de la Concordia, señalizada por un Hito ubicado en las proximidades de la playa de “Las Machas” y que tiene forma de una pequeña torre triangular y es fácilmente visible desde el mar.
3.- Esta Autoridad Marítima, sancionará a todo pescador que lleve su actividad de pesca al Norte de la línea fronteriza, incluso procederá a cancelar las matrículas respectivas.
4.- Por la razón anterior reitero una vez más a UD. las instrucciones y recomendaciones que personalmente les he impartido, relacionadas con la pesca, a fin de que las haga presente a todos los pescadores de Arica y al mismo tiempo se las haga llegar a todos sus congéneres de los puertos vecinos de Tocopilla, Iquique, Antofagasta, etc.

O THE PRESIDENT OF THE FISHERMEN’S UNION OF ARICA
1. As you are aware, on several occasions our fishermen have carried out fishing activities in Peruvian territorial waters, which is strictly prohibited.
2. In the waters of Chilean jurisdiction the limit for fishing ends by the north at the Concordia Line, which is signalled by a Boundary Marker located near the beach of “Las Machas” which has the shape of a small triangular tower and is easily visible from the sea.
3. This Maritime Authority will punish every fisherman carrying out fishing activities North of the frontier line; it will even proceed to cancel the relevant licences.
4. For the above reason, I reiterate once again the instructions and recommendations that I have personally given regarding fishing, in order for you to bring this to the attention of all the fishermen in Arica and at the same time to your colleagues in the neighbouring ports of Tocopilla, Iquique, Antofagasta, etc.
Yours faithfully,

No. 1043/72 Forwarding the Report of the Peruvian Commission of the South Pacific re/ Agreement for special fishing areas for Chile and Peru.
LIMA, 27 September 1961
Minister:
I have obtained from Ambassador Edwin Lettz a copy of the report sent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Agriculture by the Peruvian Permanent Commission of the South Pacific, about our Government’s position in relation to the granting of special fishing concessions within a 50-mile area from each side of the frontier of both countries.
[…]
T
he Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not wish to formalize its reply until an agreement in official form is reached with our Government in order to enliven the discussions and present a counter-proposal with the approval of Chile to give effect to a formal agreement.
For your information, I am pleased to transcribe the aforementioned report which Mr. Lettz will bring to Santiago to discuss with the Chilean authorities:
“The Embassy of Chile, by Note No. 142 dated 20 June, … formalized a proposal for granting special and extraordinary fishing concessions within a 50-mile area on each side of the frontier, through an agreement or convention between the two countries, and outlined the conditions for said agreement.
[…]
Annex 120
777
…, the members of the Peruvian Section have considered [in good faith] the provisions of the special frontier agreement proposed by the Government of Chile.
The reasons that motivated it, namely, the movement of the fish schools along the frontier line and its effects on the industries established in the ports near the frontier, is a proven fact which affects the fishing industries of Ilo and Arica in different ways, depending on the distance to the frontier and the types of fish involved. … Additionally, due to the distance between Ilo and the frontier, an enlargement of the fishing zone of anchovies to the South of the said zone does not represent an interesting possibility … We can thus mark an area of 30 miles for the fishing of anchovy and of 50 miles for the other species mentioned, as from the frontier line.
[…]
On the other hand, the Agreement Relating to a Special Maritime Frontier Zone signed at Lima on 4 December 1954 at the Second Conference of the South Pacific Countries, and the zones of tolerance it establishes, should not be affected by the new agreement because it refers to different circumstances and different vessels.
[…]
Agreeing in principle with the proposal and its essential provisions … the Peruvian Section of the Permanent Commission renders this report with a favourable technical opinion…”

1.

The Chilean fishing vessels refused to react to the intimidation by “Diez Canseco” because they were fishing in Chilean waters. They came under machine-gun fire from the Peruvian ship without suffering any casualties.
[…]
3. Although this event is of some seriousness and the news is susceptible of exploitation by the press, we do not want to make a formal protest to this Government, for reasons that you will not fail to understand. Therefore, we simply ask you to communicate verbally the facts referred to in paragraph 1 to the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. At the same time, you should ask for the reasons causing corvette “Diez Canseco” to have trespassed over the boundary and open fire in Chilean waters against “Mariette” and “Angamos”.

At 13.10 hours, the Peruvian patrol boat came into view and at 13.50 hours, while it was at approximately two miles South of the boundary parallel and with the Peruvian Destroyer “GALVEZ” in view on the port side, the vessel took west and moored at 13.58 hours. The Chilean Official made contact with the Captain of the Destroyer and told him that he was two miles within Chilean waters, to which [the crew of the Peruvian Patrol] responded that they were in Peruvian waters. The Chilean Official stressed that the alignment of the last hito of the Concordia Line with the hangar of the Chacalluta Airport corresponded with the boundary parallel. At the same time, he asked the Peruvian Captain about the means at his disposal to verify his position, to which the latter answered that they had the most modern navigation systems. Our Official, seeing no agreement was being reached, reiterated that the Peruvian Vessel was two miles within Chilean waters and that he would report to the Government. Immediately after, they cast off moorings.

No. 21 CONFIDENTIAL
Minister,
Having
gathered to the maximum extent records to allow a clear understanding of the events that have occurred in the Boundary Zone with Peru, I hereby inform you of the following:
1. – Works have been undertaken unilaterally by Peru, which has installed on the Concordia line, coastal Zone, concrete monolithes and three vertical rails, all of them located between the Pan-American Highway and the Pacific Ocean.
2. – The installation of the aforementioned monolithes appears to be aimed at demarcating, on the coastal land, the direction of the maritime frontier of Peru, by providing a fixed line of sight that allows control over [boundary] crossings by any Chilean vessel into Peruvian waters. This line extended towards the sea would allow the foregoing to be determined by Navy Units located in the Zone and by land Patrols located in the vicinity of the boundary.
3. – The unilateral action of Peru consisting in installing signposts on the Concordia Line without the joint intervention of the competent National Entities is deemed inappropriate.
4. – There is no doubt that, for the execution of these works and measurements, it has been necessary to cross the Frontier and give effect to them from the Chilean territory, without having any authorization. This is difficult to prove in an irrefutable way, although measurements from the Peruvian side would not be feasible due to the scarce marginal distance from the sea, which is not greater than 350 metres at low tide.

[…]
Chile has finished the installation of the alignment lighthouse which, along with the one that will be installed by the neighbouring country, Peru, will serve to demarcate the maritime boundary zone.
T
he aforementioned alignment, which will without question constitute a global precedent in this regard, was approved by both countries in August this year, together with the signature of the respective protocol agreement that engaged Chile and Peru physically to give effect to the maritime boundary parallel in Arica and Tacna.
[…]
For the aforementioned reasons, I request that, on behalf of the Chamber, the Minister of Foreign Affairs be made aware of the profound satisfaction that the Chilean people feel for this monumental work that, in addition to the above, will mean a step forward for the international relations of Chile. In the case of Peru, it will leave behind the sad and distressing times of the continuous problems between the fishermen of Chile and Peru, as a result of the elusive anchovy, vital for the manufacture of fish flour.

d) I hereby inform you that this Maritime Authority has repeatedly reported, both by written correspondence and orally, to the Managers of Fishing Companies, Directors of Employers’ Unions, mechanics and crew of fishing schooners, the inconvenience of these violations of the boundary parallel, given the political consequences of international order that could derive from them.
T
he undersigned has fully explained to the members of companies and unions, the desire of the Supreme Government to end these violations that may alter the good relations and drive the public opinion into additional difficult situations such as the one occurred on 24 July 1968.
Both the employers and the unions met at the Departmental Governor’s Office during the visit of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Gabriel Valdéz Subercaseaux, to this city in 1969, who personally informed and explained the scope and consequences of these offenses.
As you may realize, neither the employers nor the unions can claim ignorance regarding maritime infractions and their possible consequences for the international relations with Peru.
Regarding sanctions, this Maritime Authority considers that given that the information and warnings have already been made and reiterated, only the drastic sanction remains, which is to take away the Skipper Licence to the offender that crosses the frontier parallel or to suspend licences for 6 or more months.
Regarding control measures, it is necessary to have a high speed offshore patrol in order to reach the site of the incident immediately. The above will be achieved with the arrival of a new Patrol boat of high speed to Arica, which is currently awaiting in Valparaiso for a boat in order to be dispatched. An aerial element would also be very appropriate in order to allow an aerial survey of the parallel and the boundary maritime zone, as it is done by Peru, to monitor transgressions by the fishing vessels, to have a continuous watch over them and to send radio orders for it to retreat from the area, in case a violation is confirmed.

LIBRO DE LA DEFENSA NACIONAL DE CHILE 32AÑO 2002derechos de soberanía nacional, hasta las 200 millas náuticas (370 kms.). Con-siderando que Chile posee un litoral que abarca 4.300 kms., calculados latitudi-nalmente, resulta una superficie de 3.464.462 kms2de mar, sin incluir la pro-yección marítima del territorio antártico chileno, respecto del cual Chile ejercecompetencias de acuerdo con los instrumentos jurídicos internacionales vigen-tes aplicables en el área. Esto otorga a nuestro país una situación de privilegioen un océano que cobra cada día mayor importancia, además de presentar, pro-porcionalmente a su territorio, una de las mayores extensiones de litoral en elmundo.Dentro de este espacio marítimo es necesario tener presente los siguientes con-ceptos: a)Mar Territorial, de 12 mn. de extensión (22 kms.), medidas desde las lí-neas de base, donde se ejerce soberanía plena, reconociendo el derecho depaso inocente de naves extranjeras ejercido en conformidad con la Conven-ción de Naciones Unidas sobre el Derecho del Mar.b) Zona Contigua, de 24 mn. (44 kms.), contadas desde las líneas de base apartir de las cuales se mide la anchura del mar territorial, donde se ejercefiscalización tanto para prevenir como para sancionar infracciones a las le-yes y los reglamentos aduaneros, fiscales, de inmigración o sanitarios.c) Zona Económica Exclusiva (ZEE), entendida como el área marítima quese extiende hasta las 200 mn. (370 kms.), medidas desde las líneas de base,donde el Estado ejerce derechos de soberanía en cuanto a la explotación, ex-ploración, conservación y administración de los recursos naturales vivos yno vivos existentes en la masa de agua, el suelo y el sub-suelo del mar, asícomo jurisdicción respecto del establecimiento y la utilización de las islas ar-tificiales, instalaciones y estructuras, de la investigación científica marina,de la protección y preservación del medio ambiente y otros derechos reco-nocidos por la Convención sobre el Derecho del Mar de las Naciones Uni-das. Además, Chile concibe como Mar Presencial el espacio oceánico comprendidoentre el límite de nuestra Zona Económica Exclusiva y el meridiano que, pa-sando por el occidental de la plataforma continental de la Isla de Pascua, se pro-longa desde el paralelo del hito fronterizo Nº 1 hasta el Polo Sur. Este conceptoexpresa la voluntad de ejercer presencia en esta área de la alta mar con el pro-pósito de proyectar intereses marítimos respecto del resto de la comunidad in-ternacional, vigilar el medio ambiente y conservar los recursos marinos, conirrestricto apego al Derecho Internacional.La Convención del Mar, en cuya elaboración y aprobación Chile jugó un papelactivo e importante, la existencia de otros acuerdos internacionales que normanlas actividades en el mar, ratificados por Chile, y la vigencia de una legislaciónnacional para el Medio Ambiente y de Pesca, así como de una política de usodel Borde Costero,4expresan la vocación marítima de Chile en una forma clarae intensa. El derecho internacional del mar está constituido por un conjunto denormas consuetudinarias y convencionales, y se negocian nuevos instrumentos✪3Definido en el decreto supremo Nº 364,del 30 de mayo de 1974. 26AÑO 20022. El Territorio y laPoblación de ChileLa protección del territorio y su poblaciónes, en último término, el objetivo de laDefensa.

Moreover, Chile considers as Presencial Sea the oceanic space between the limit of our Exclusive Economic Zone and the meridian that, passing along the western side of the continental platform of Easter Island, extends from the parallel of the boundary marker No.1 to the South Pole. This concept expresses the wish to have a presence in this area of high seas for the purpose of projecting [sic] maritime interests with respect to the rest of the international community, monitoring the environment and preserving marine resources, with unrestricted observance of International Law.
