In the Name of Humanity     A recent study of the Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) mine action programme concentrated on the effective use of donations from political, financial and productivity perspectives. The premise of the study was that similar tasks, undertaken by a similar work force, with similar training and equipment, in the same time period, should be achieved with comparable timeframes and costs. Results and analysis of the BiH programme from the past several years are discussed below.  by Eddie Banks, Project Director, E and I  Introduction  The continued suffering inflicted by landmines and UXO must be eliminated in the shortest possible time period; indeed, the international community acknowledges that obligation. The Ottawa Treaty, Dayton Peace Agreement and the London and Bonn Peace Implementation Conferences all form legal obligations addressing mine action that BiH has formally agreed to. BiH was the first Balkans country to destroy its entire stockpile of AP mines, with the exception of a few mines for training and research and development (R&D) allowed within the terms of the Ottawa Convention.  Underpinning the obligation to eliminate landmines is the financial support provided by the donor community to assist less affluent countries in meeting their legal and moral obligations. By removing the cause of the landmine threat quickly, other aspects of humanitarian assistance and national development such as repatriation, rehabilitation, reconstruction and reconciliation, can proceed unimpeded in areas that were suspected of, or contained hazardous material.

About MAI MAI was formed in 2002 as part of the structural development of the environmental and infrastructure work undertaken by other companies in the E&I Group. Working on the premise that mines and UXO are ‘just another’ form of contamination. This development widened the scope of the company to respond to the need to have a proactive demining company that would work to high quality standards (IMAS) and address activities across the whole spectrum of mine action. Starting in 2002 to undertake Quality Assurance and Quality Control for seismic operations for an international Oil and Gas Company, MAI has developed in to the most technically proficient company presently operating in-country. The technical and operational management consists of five permanent international advisors and a number of teams for mine and Battle Area Clearance tasks, with equipment that ranges from mine detectors to UXO detectors (Data Loggers also available), bomb locators and triple probes again with Data Logger capability to Mine Detection Dogs (MDD). Selection of mechanical equipment to meet the company’s operational requirement is presently being undertaken.

A Discussion Paper Spoiled Soil While it is necessary to remove explosive items from the land to facilitate repatriation, reconstruction and rehabilitation, it is crucial that, in undertaking this action, the soil structure is not inadvertently damaged, creating short, medium and long-term problems for agriculture, in particular the sustainable farming that supports vulnerable communities. Eddie Banks (Project Director E&I) with technical assistance from Stewart Moir (Scottish Agricultural College) January 2003 Introduction 1. Over the last few years the increased use of mechanical equipment for humanitarian de-mining has demonstrated that it can not only improve the safety of hazardous work but can also vastly improve clearance productivity and effectiveness. By adopting an integrated approach, incorporating manual clearance and Explosives Detecting Dogs (EDDs), operational managers can select the best combination of methods to suit the wide variety of sites and environmental conditions. 2. Taken individually, management of the three methods (manual, EDD and mechanical) requires very different skills, experience and knowledge. The level of knowledge and skills necessary for the effective management of manual de-mining teams can easily be achieved, especially by ex military engineers with relevant explosives and managerial experience. The knowledge and management of Explosives Detecting Dogs is much more difficult to obtain, many managers have little or no prior experience of dog use or dog management and must learn on the job. Poor management of these two methods may well affect the overall performance, quality and safety of the clearance operation, but it does not affe  ");

Demining in Iran – Produced in the JMU Quarterly Magazine April 2006 By Eddie Banks, EOD World Services Demining in any country has its challenges. Here, the author discusses those faced in Iran, how the deminers overcame the problems and what equipment was used to accomplish the demining goals. The Islamic Republic of Iran The United Nations classification of mine-affected countries states that the Islamic Republic of Iran is one of the worlds most affected countries. Historically Iran has been called the “cradle of civilization,” and it contains a number of important historical sites, including the ancient city of Persepolis (or Takht-e-Jamshid), which was destroyed by Alexander the Great in 322 B.C. There are also many beautiful natural sites like the caves at Ali-Sadr, unusual wildlife and, for many of us, a fascinating culture. Iran is known for its carpets and famous poets, the most well-known in the western world being Hafez and Omar Khayyam. It is the 17th largest country in the world, bordered on the west by Iraq and Turkey, on the east by Afghanistan and Pakistan, with the Caspian Sea and Turkmenistan to the north and the Persian Gulf to the south. Mine-Affected Areas The mine-affected areas are primarily in the western border regions, the area that saw most action in the 1980–1988 war with Iraq. The hazardous residue of that war stretches from Adaban on the Persian Gulf to the Turkish border some 600 kilometers (373 miles) north. These contaminated areas incorporate a wide variety of ground types, including swamps, wetlands, marsh, desert, agricultural land and mountain ranges.

Any fund spent on bureaucracy lessens what is available to spend on reducing the physical, social, psychological and economical impact of post conflict residue.
