we can see that the flag of Huila is white, green and yellow. The
image of the flag is accompanied by the following text :
"En el ano de 1952 el Gobernador del Huila, don Gustavo
Salazar T., dictó un Decreto creando de manera oficial la
bandera de nuestro Departamento, la cual está conformada por
tres franjas horizontales de igual tamano: Una franja blanca que
representa la honradez, característica del huilense; una franja
verde que significa los frutos que cultiva el Huila y su
esperanza en el porvenir; y, una franja amarilla que representa
la riqueza mineral de su suelo y la nobleza de sus hijos."

Here is my translation:
In year 1952, the Governor of Huila, don Gustavo Salazar T.
signed a decree creating officially the flag of our department,
which is made of three horizontal stripes of equal width: A white
stripe which represents the HONRADEZ (? honesty ?),
characteristic of the Huilense; a green stripe which represents
fruits cultivated in Huila and hope in the future; and a yellow
stripe which represents the mineral wealth of its soil and the
nobility of its sons.

In this site you can see a Huila Dept. flag which is
white-green-yellow vs the white-green-orange flag in the
presidential page.
