I suppose it is a more formal "state flag" version.

Without the stars, it would rather look like the flag of the municipality of Usulután, and not the flag of the department. See: http://alcaldiausulutan.gob.sv/2014/05/30/paco-meardi-alcalde-instalo-bandera-de-usulutan/
I hope it helps.

The flag was a quick rendition made by the person who drew it for the newspaper.
