The NMAS shall be reviewed as needed to reflect amendments in the IMAS as well as incorporate changes to international obligations and local requirements. Such revisions shall be regularly made available on the LMAC’s website www.lebmac.org or can be obtained through contacting the LMAC via the email info@lebmac.org.
The National Mine Action Standards (NMAS) of Lebanon were first developed in the form of Technical Standards and Guidelines (TSG). These TSG were edited into the first edition of the Lebanon NMAS in 2010 and were written to comply with the International Mine Action Standards (IMAS) at that time. The IMAS are constantly under review and subject to revision. The desire to remain compliant with the revised IMAS led to an update of the NMAS in 2020. Further IMAS revisions have led to the NMAS being reviewed and revised again in 2023.
