Book excerpt: The review report provides an insight into sediment collection and use strategies that can be transferred to El-Bared irrigation system. The report is the outcome of the project “Rehabilitation and waste management of the El-Bared Canal Irrigation System”, financed by the Government of Norway. The report aims to provide technical guidelines in support of the development of sediment management strategies in the north of Lebanon. In the specific, it aims at providing an overview of global and national practices of sediment application; setting the theoretical baseline for the implementation of these practices; and paving the way for scalable pilots in the country. The report contributes to the higher objectives of the country’s commitment to protect marine resources of the Mediterranean Sea, under the Barcelona Convention.
