The ANIN approves three expropriations to defend the banks of the Lacramarca River

The National Infrastructure Authority (ANIN) approved the execution of three expropriations and set the appraisal value of the properties affected by the riverbank protection works of the Lacramarca river, in the department of Áncash. The decision is contained in three chief resolutions published this Friday, November 13, 2026, in the LEGAL NORMS section of the Official Gazette El Peruano. The owners and possessors of the three properties, located in the districts of Macate, Cáceres del Perú, and Chimbote, have ten business days to vacate the affected areas.

The legal framework of the decision

The three chief resolutions—R.J. N° 000175-2026-ANIN/JEF, R.J. N° 000176-2026-ANIN/JEF, and R.J. N° 000177-2026-ANIN/JEF, all dated in Jesús María on November 11, 2026, and signed by the head of the entity, Hernán Yaipén Arestegui—were issued under Law No. 30556, which declares the Comprehensive Plan for Reconstruction with Changes as a matter of public necessity and national interest, and Legislative Decree No. 1192, which approves the Framework Law for the Acquisition and Expropriation of real estate. ANIN, created by Law No. 31841, acts as the Active Subject due to its status as the executing entity.

The properties are part of the project “Creation of the protection service on the banks of the Lacramarca river vulnerable to flood hazards, in 58 communities in the districts of Macate, Cáceres del Perú, and Chimbote of the province of Santa – department of Áncash,” identified with CUI No. 2499818. In all three cases, the entity communicated the required area and sent letters of intent for acquisition that received no response within the legal timeframe; therefore, the offers were considered rejected, and the expropriation procedure was initiated, in accordance with numeral 20.5 of article 20 of Legislative Decree No. 1192. On November 2, ANIN had already approved the expropriation of two areas of the same project through R.J. N° 000165-2026-ANIN/JEF.

Three affected areas and their appraisals

Each resolution individualizes the required area and its value, calculated by the General Directorate of Policies and Regulation in Construction and Sanitation of the Ministry of Housing, Construction, and Sanitation:

• R.J. N° 000175-2026-ANIN/JEF: area of 150.84 m² (0.0151 ha), partial affectation of the property registered in Entry No. 11161936 of the Property Registry of the Chimbote Registry Office, Registry Zone No. VII – Huaraz Headquarters; appraisal of S/ 3,589.99.
• R.J. N° 000176-2026-ANIN/JEF: area of 103.68 m², partial affectation of the property in Entry No. 02106734, with an appraisal of S/ 1,534.46.
• R.J. N° 000177-2026-ANIN/JEF: area of 288.63 m² (0.0289 ha), partial affectation of the property in Entry No. 02103567, with an appraisal of S/ 5,657.15.

The total amount deposited amounts to S/ 10,781.60. The areas border the same Lacramarca river, with drivable tracks and the remnants of the parent properties.

Who are the affected parties

• For the property of R.J. N° 000175-2026-ANIN/JEF, the Passive Subject is listed as Corporación Pesquera EDC S.A.C.

Deadlines, deposit, and registry enrollment

• The vacation and delivery of each area must be completed within a maximum period of ten business days, non-extendable, counted from the notification, under penalty of coercive execution for eviction or taking possession.
• ANIN must deposit the appraisal value in the Banco de la Nación in favor of the Passive Subjects within ten business days following the issuance of each resolution.
• The SUNARP Registry Office must enroll the areas in favor of ANIN under responsibility and penalty of dismissal, and lift all liens or encumbrances; creditors may collect their claims from the appraisal value.
• The resolutions are non-challengeable via administrative channels, and judicial or arbitral challenges do not suspend the procedure or the registration of ownership.

The project seeks to reduce the risk of flooding in 58 communities settled in the Lacramarca river basin, an area hit by episodes of intense rainfall associated with phenomena such as El Niño. The three expropriations transfer small fractions of private properties to the State, at appraisal price, and confirm that the riverbank defense is advancing in its interference clearance phase, with an eviction schedule that now runs in days.
